Changing dynamics of the way the world is dominated...a power shift
M-men
M-masters
M-masculine
M-mad
Agenda of meeting at a small room in 2 A.D, it was decided among the elite group of girls that they need to systematically change the table of power in their favour,enough of men controlling their lives. Men living in luxury-living life kingsize(conquering lands, lazing around the house,earninig easy money) and
girls sit back home washes dirty clothes, make food, clean the house, follow the customs of society, clean up the mess of children......this is all hard work & boring to do, no sense of adventure compared to the work men are doing.
Here the weapons of mass destruction were planned. Some of them were......
1. Cosmetics- In order to get the men to stay in the house, girls have to remain beautiful so he stays in the house longer-in order to get the house hold work done. Inner beauty such as smartness, intellectual capability was ignored. Beauty...beauty...beauty, the guy after marriage realizes he is doomed-this breaks his morale, in the end turns out to be a loser.
2. Well groomed men (Introducing the concept of a Gentle men)-Men fought wars, their image was "Rough & tough". Grooming for personality was in the genes of losers who were not brave,less risk taking-nothing to do in their lives(only time pass). Now that beauty has been taken care of, girls could command only the so called groomed men.
3. Love, romance, shit- Developed the concept of romance, positioned love as something great (once in a life time affair-u miss it u r a fool). Some losers, who had nothing to do in life (like earning money, fighting a war) fell for this. Now the love affair was publicized heavily in the society by the girl's friend.
Suddenly a loser turned hero, kept men wondering..as to what is happening.
This 3 weapons completely changed men from a hero to zero, this happened for centuries. It changed a man's attitude towards the girl- but this did not serve the ultimate purpose the girls had decided earlier (like cleaning the house, washing dirty clothes, making a girl feel like a queen etc). So, in order to address these issues, another meeting was called to decide on the ultimate weapon that would give the final and ultimate blow.....discussions happened for years and then they developed a nuclear bomb that was fool-proof with immediate results.
Tears- It was decided if men don't realize what a women wants, don't know how it feels when a girl is hurt. This weapon was introduced.The ultimate ingredients was to mix love with a dose of tear in it. And the results were right out on the spot. Now that concepts of love was highly developed and well groomed men could be seen across the street but a drop of tear would make them fall on the ground.
There has been a drastic power shift, thought men still dominates....girls are not far behind. Men still do the household work, clean others crap.....well not only that but have started using sanitizers,use perfumes, learning salsa, extensive use of tissues,no mustache, wax their chest.......all to know they are changing their behavior similar to that of a girl. It is high time guys, stand up for ur pride........or else u know what is stored for u.

part 2-why men are good accountants..!!
But the best part is that the girl never acknowledges that-the guy is doing all this.
They start comparing with the next best guy.
6. Making her friend believe that you are in love cost- The guy realizes that the girl cannot say no, for decisions regarding boyfriends they will not seek parental approval but those of friends, so the next target is to be the friends of her friends. This all has to happen fast or else either he will be thrown out of the house or his father will be on the footpath. At this stage the psychological and motivational book sells the highest (books like what a girl really wants?, what should u not do in the first date!!! etc etc). Here is the time when the guy totally forgets the big picture in his life i.e his career, but focuses on the small picture that is the girl.
7. The bomb- After everything is set for "THE DAY", the guy has read books, blogs and movies. He makes sure the place, the environment of the setup, the food, the flowers etc it a perfect killer combo that when the girls sees that she falls flat for him (not realizing how dumb or smart the guy is). For that moment that setup seem amazing....but now for the next step.
8. She says "it is complicate cost" (emotional torture cost)-Now this is the nuclear bomb that has fallen on the boy. After making such an investment, he sees that his asset has in fact become a liability. The girl thinks that the boy is nothing but a good friend, now the so called dynamics of the relations has changed. The girl being smart tell she needs time to make up her mind.
She thinks about this at home, consults no other but her friends (who the boy has already convinced-smart boy). This time the friends will tell her that this is so called "TRUE LOVE".
9. Happy life after proposal cost-This the happiest time in the life for both of them, it is more like honeymoon time.But the investment does not stop as there is phase called relationship building. Here for the first time girl will gift her lover, life seems perfect.
But girls want to live a life which is a dream, what i am trying to say is they want life that is in dreams and do not consider reality.......so than problem starts........

What more should romeos give....
But before i can say anything, i would like to make some assumptions to my theory..
1. NO GIRL IS BEAUTIFUL-It is the quality of cosmetics that have improved over the years.
2. Her eyes are like tequila shots-This is stupidity-as the guy has to look in the girls eyes to make contact. Any human eye signals deep meaning and emotions.
The costs as follows-
1. Seeing cost- The guy goes to places in the city which is called PBS (Potential Babe Spot), which the girls in their community call it the BS (BAKRA SPOT). This is a place far from residential areas in the city, as here the girls do not fear of being watched by relatives, family etc. It is in this place any girl of the city is best dressed.....guys think they maintain such amazing lifestyle.
2. Research cost- Make sure the girl has no boyfriend & no brother who is a tyson or else unnecessary hospital cost.
3. Making her Friend cost- Get introduced to her. For that you need to find a friend who knows her, treat her friend in the best restaurants/cinema...emotional torture for the dumb shit they will keep on talking before they are introduced.
4. Investing time in her cost- Love is no fast food industry, you cannot say "i luv u" on the first day and the girl is yours. They need the guy to stay with her- the impression is first you have to be a friend and then BOY-friend. This transition is financially killing to the guy
telephone bills- This is the highest expense for a guy to make sure that the girl is his only and does not go with some other guy, as he is invested on her like crazy. Girls are also too demanding- they want a "good morning call", "completed break fast call", "2am morning call" etc and other dumb shit. Now if u don't give these calls to them they consider that you not paying attention and then she will look for someone else. So it is out of compulsion that the guy has to call.
This is for now....

Why this name....?
The name "powerful feather" is given by 2 thoughts
1.During the start of the human race, the only means of writing was the tip of the feather. Now, after the advancement of human race pen came into existence, and then came the term "pen is mightier than the sword".
2.The other reason is that when i was thinking about what to name the blog, i happen to browse a technical website which says that chicken feather will be the source of energy in the future and replace petrol, to such an extend that you will have to put a feather in the car feather than petrol. This created a chill in my spine - the next source of energy will be a feather, after all what is in the feather???.(the term feather weight will have more meaning then).
That means the value of all birds will rise,as each breed of bird will have some energy in their feathers, there price reaching as high as i dont know, say $150 a ton or something.
Lets say if the price of crow feather is as high as $40 a ton, than people in my colony will be the richest as the number of birds (crows) that have increased over the years have increased like crazy, instead of shooing them off, they will be valued, their constant kaw kaw will soon become the symphony---then concepts like Miss crow & Mr.Crow will come up ...oh man crows being valued their life changed.
My biggest worry will be that penguins will be neglected, oh man poor souls...not a single feather.......
This will indirectly help make earth green, as to increase the breeding of birds...i believe we will grow more trees....make earth more of a green planet....and you know the cycle...green earth better place to live.....
So my friends the name powerful feather came in mind...the power of feather having dual effect solving the energy problem and the green house effect. Who knows how feather will revolutionize the world.....!

Gyan about the stock market-1
The best part of the market is that
- It is run by highly qualified intellectual people, some of them are the greatest brains in the world...who claim to know the pulse of the finance markets.
- The market is driven always...and always by peoples sentiments
Even though all this ocean of knowledge is available, the stock market does not work rationally, as people will never want to loose money. So any kind of bad information creates panic and hovoc, even the most sophisticated people get worried.

MBA number crunching
These people go down till the revenue they are most likely to learn from the customer in God forsaken part of the country and even calculate the amount of revenue he will give through out his life time. Lets say if the person Daler form a village in Punjab may be contributing Rs.5 on a purchase of a day. The marketing officer is likely to tell you how much will he contribute till he dies or till the product stays in the market.
Now, this is only important for the marketing manager to get funds sanctioned from the CFO. But here one needs to understand at the corporate level that numbers can be taken care by the tactical level but at the strategy level one needs to find the CHANGE. The change that is happening in the external environment, preference that the customer has, gaps in service level & things that delight the customer.

Life in a PG class room
Statistics is one of the most important subjects in marketing.
- It tells you how to forecast sales?
- It tells you how your product will perform in relation to competition?
- When is the best possible time to launch a product?
- Quality issues...(Statistics in identifying quality...something to think about!!!)
All the above question are very important from a business decision perspective. They help a marketer to make product & brand related with specific regards to promotion, distribution of goods in case of seasonality of products, the kind of investment that is needed, the right time to enter the market, where to locate you warehouse in the country so as to minimise the costs.......etc
Anyone who has studied statistics, in other words any person who has the capacity to find averages, will also agree that all these decisions are made on past knowledge and information. Now the only thing is that, past was yesterday and it is gone....what about today and tomorrow?? it cannot be predicted on the basis of the past. The variables that were important yesterday cannot be important in the future...as the environment in which the business operates and the preferences of the customers changes over time.
Moreover, statistics I believe is a predictive science based in the variables of the past. Well, i think MBA is all about these numbers, just fudge them and you get what you want to prove. No wonder there were a series of amazing financial crises that happened on a model that was fradulent from the very beginning, as it was only numbers.
But than the question is how do you make forecasts, there has to be certain trends that happened in the past which aids you to make future forecasts. So in other words, forecast is important.
What people fail to understand is to look beyond the number game, i am not disowning the fact that numbers are not important. What i am saying is that "Focus on the big picture" there are trends in the external environment that needs to be monitored, so the business can understand the changing trends and align its business decisions accordingly.
I miss my graduation days, where the quant i was doing atleast was easy and made sense. Life is simple but just to show sophistication of knowledge you make a simple thing look complicated!!!
