Down the memory lane.11-30

These are some of the thoughts, that generally reverberate in the minds of people with atleast some achievements specially those born in 50s and 60s The more you move closer to your goals and objectives in life, the farther you keep moving from yourself. 

Anarchy in itself provides the unknown wholesomesness in life.The stage in your life when you are a vagabound poacher with absolutely no direction in life. Innuendos in galore from well wishers and so called wellwishers.The moments of joy, ecstasy, even melacholy. They all get enframed secularly in heart & mind.

There is a strange unfulfilled craving in heart for those moments.

दिल ढूँढता है फिर वही फ़ुरसत के रात दिन
बैठे रहे तसव्वुर-ए-जानाँ किये हुए
दिल ढूँढता है...

Pantelligent Pan, A Smart Frying Pan For Your Connected Home 11-28

Pantelligent Pan, A Smart Frying Pan For Your Connected Home






I’m a big fan of home automation gadgets – right down to my kettle – but even I would have thought a smart frying pan was a bit of a stretch. Seems not: a Kickstarter campaign for the $199(£130) Pantelligent pan is already fully-funded.
Frying pans have barely changed in thousands of years, but Pantelligent is the next evolutionary leap in the kitchen: a frying pan that actually helps you cook. Pantelligent has a temperature sensor inside it that communicates with the Pantelligent smartphone app. 

Together, the pan and the app guide you to cook everything perfectly, just the way a professional chef (or your mom!) would cook it. No more overcooked, undercooked, or burned food. You’ll know exactly when the pan is at the right temperature, when it’s time to flip or stir, and when your food is perfectly done.
The Pantelligent pan has a built-in temperature sensor, so it knows how hot it is and how hot it should be for the food you are cooking, letting you know when you need to adjust the heat up or down, and telling you when the food is properly cooked.
There are only a few dozen recipes in the app at present, but more are promised – and you can also enter your own, complete with temperatures and timings so that the app can alert you in the same way it does for the supplied ones.
The rather lengthy video below provides a complete, unedited demo. If you want to grab one, you can back the project for $199(£130) and expect to receive your smart pan in January.

Seatylock, A Bicycle Saddle That Can Be Detached And Used As A Lock 11-28

Seatylock, A Bicycle Saddle That Can Be Detached And Used As A Lock



Bicycle locks are going through a renaissance of sorts, as teams of engineers and designers are packing high-tech features into what used to be uninspired pieces of metal. Some bikes have even been designed to lock themselves without the help of an external lock. Now thanks to the Seatylock, some cyclists may be able to say that the best bike lock is the one right under their bum.
The Seatylock is, simply put, a bicycle saddle that can be detached and used as a lock in about 30 seconds. When it’s separated from the bike, the Seatylock extends to turn into a multi-jointed, one-metre (about 3.3 feet) long hardened steel bike lock. This means cyclists who use the novel bike seat don’t have to worry about lugging a separate lock along with them. It also means they don’t need to worry about their bicycle saddle being stolen.
Not to be overshadowed by its security features, the team behind the Seatylock makes it a point to highlight the thought and effort that went into the comfort and style of the bicycle saddle. The saddle comes in two versions: Trekking (slimmer) and Comfort (thicker). Each saddle is available in a variety of styles and comes with a universal adapter to ensure that the Seatylock fits with any standard bike.
The Seatylock’s Kickstarter campaign, which closed earlier this month, received $137,190 (more than three times its $40,000 goal) from 1,377 backers. It will retail at $129(£83), with initial deliveries scheduled for March 2015. Cyclists can pre-order the Seatylock for $90(£58).

Hexoskin, The First Biometric Shirt For Fitness Training And Sleep Tracking 11-28


Hexoskin, The First Biometric Shirt For Fitness Training And Sleep Tracking



If made right, smart clothing could be the key to unlocking the future of health and fitness technology. Smart clothing, or clothes with sensors that measure different aspects of your health and fitness, is still rare, with only a handful of products on the market. The Hexoskin Smart Shirt ($399/£260 for a complete starter kit with one garment) has made some great inroads into this space. Available for both men and women, it’s a workout top with almost invisible sensors for measuring heart rate and breathing, plus a small tracker device that connects to the shirt to capture your motion, like cadence, steps, acceleration, and so forth.

The Tracker and Compatibility

The Hexoskin tracker device is a small, Bluetooth-enabled device that’s smaller than a credit card and fits into a secure pocket on the side of the shirt. Inside the pocket is a little connector that fits into the device and lets it collect data from the sensors. The device then sends the information it gathers to your phone, where it’s collected in a companion app for iOS or Android.
A USB charging cable comes with a Hexoskin device, too, and the battery lasts about 14 hours. The device can store about 150 hours worth of data, so if you forget to upload your workouts for a day or two, it’s no big deal.

Wearing and Washing Hexoskin

hexoskin
I don’t know if you’d want to wear the same shirt all day long and then to bed, but the point is you could. Or you can buy additional shirts for $169(£110) each. The shirts, which are made of polyamide microfibers, feel similar to bathing-suit material. They’re machine washable on the gentle or “hand” cycle, although you do have to disconnect and remove the Hexoskin device before submerging it.

The Hexoskin App

The Hexoskin app shows you whatever data point you want to see being plotted on a graph in real time: heart rate, speed, cadence, and so forth.
The other measurements appear at the bottom next to their icons so you can check in on other stats at a glance. You don’t have to leave the screen on, however, and can put your phone out of sight if you prefer.
The app comes with a lot. A huge list of activities are supported, from badminton to snowboarding. You can use it not only to track your workout times, speed, breathing, and heart rate, but also to conduct a heart rate deceleration test, which is an indicator of health. Faster deceleration from maximum heart rate is better, and the app is pretty clear about showing what your results mean. You can also use it to test your heart rate variability, which is an indication of whether your body has recovered enough from a previous workout to get at it again full-force today.

Smart Shirt, Middling App

Though expensive, the Hexoskin Smart Shirt is a great product that tracks a wealth of information about your workouts and activities. The mobile app has some wonderful functionality, too, but it could use some love and attention from the design side. The same can be said for the tracker device and its incomprehensible LEDs.
If smart clothing sounds like overkill for your fitness needs, check out the best activity trackers instead, as well as our advice on how to choose a fitness tracker that’s right for you.

Marketing Myopia 11-29

Marketing    Myopia




We always know when an HBR article hits the big time. Journalists write about it, pundits talk about it, executives route copies of it around the organization, and its vocabulary becomes familiar to managers everywhere—sometimes to the point where they don’t even associate the words with the original article. Most important, of course, managers change how they do business because the ideas in the piece helped them see issues in a new light.
“Marketing Myopia” is the quintessential big hit HBR piece. In it, Theodore Levitt, who was then a lecturer in business administration at the Harvard Business School, introduced the famous question, “What business are you really in?” and with it the claim that, had railroad executives seen themselves as being in the transportation business rather than the railroad business, they would have continued to grow. The article is as much about strategy as it is about marketing, but it also introduced the most influential marketing idea of the past half-century: that businesses will do better in the end if they concentrate on meeting customers’ needs rather than on selling products. “Marketing Myopia” won the McKinsey Award in 1960.
Every major industry was once a growth industry. But some that are now riding a wave of growth enthusiasm are very much in the shadow of decline. Others that are thought of as seasoned growth industries have actually stopped growing. In every case, the reason growth is threatened, slowed, or stopped is not because the market is saturated. It is because there has been a failure of management.

Fateful Purposes

The failure is at the top. The executives responsible for it, in the last analysis, are those who deal with broad aims and policies. Thus:
  • The railroads did not stop growing because the need for passenger and freight transportation declined. That grew. The railroads are in trouble today not because that need was filled by others (cars, trucks, airplanes, and even telephones) but because it was not filled by the railroads themselves. They let others take customers away from them because they assumed themselves to be in the railroad business rather than in the transportation business. The reason they defined their industry incorrectly was that they were railroad oriented instead of transportation oriented; they were product oriented instead of customer oriented.
  • Hollywood barely escaped being totally ravished by television. Actually, all the established film companies went through drastic reorganizations. Some simply disappeared. All of them got into trouble not because of TV’s inroads but because of their own myopia. As with the railroads, Hollywood defined its business incorrectly. It thought it was in the movie business when it was actually in the entertainment business. “Movies” implied a specific, limited product. This produced a fatuous contentment that from the beginning led producers to view TV as a threat. Hollywood scorned and rejected TV when it should have welcomed it as an opportunity—an opportunity to expand the entertainment business.
Today, TV is a bigger business than the old narrowly defined movie business ever was. Had Hollywood been customer oriented (providing entertainment) rather than product oriented (making movies), would it have gone through the fiscal purgatory that it did? I doubt it. What ultimately saved Hollywood and accounted for its resurgence was the wave of new young writers, producers, and directors whose previous successes in television had decimated the old movie companies and toppled the big movie moguls.
There are other, less obvious examples of industries that have been and are now endangering their futures by improperly defining their purposes. I shall discuss some of them in detail later and analyze the kind of policies that lead to trouble. Right now, it may help to show what a thoroughly customer-oriented management can do to keep a growth industry growing, even after the obvious opportunities have been exhausted, and here there are two examples that have been around for a long time. They are nylon and glass—specifically, E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company and Corning Glass Works.
Both companies have great technical competence. Their product orientation is unquestioned. But this alone does not explain their success. After all, who was more pridefully product oriented and product conscious than the erstwhile New England textile companies that have been so thoroughly massacred? 
The DuPonts and the Cornings have succeeded not primarily because of their product or research orientation but because they have been thoroughly customer oriented also. It is constant watchfulness for opportunities to apply their technical know-how to the creation of customer-satisfying uses that accounts for their prodigious output of successful new products. Without a very sophisticated eye on the customer, most of their new products might have been wrong, their sales methods useless.
Aluminum has also continued to be a growth industry, thanks to the efforts of two wartime-created companies that deliberately set about inventing new customer-satisfying uses. Without Kaiser Aluminum & Chemical Corporation and Reynolds Metals Company, the total demand for aluminum today would be vastly less.

Error of Analysis.


Some may argue that it is foolish to set the railroads off against aluminum or the movies off against glass. Are not aluminum and glass naturally so versatile that the industries are bound to have more growth opportunities than the railroads and the movies? This view commits precisely the error I have been talking about. It defines an industry or a product or a cluster of know-how so narrowly as to guarantee its premature senescence. When we mention “railroads,” we should make sure we mean “transportation.” As transporters, the railroads still have a good chance for very considerable growth. They are not limited to the railroad business as such (though in my opinion, rail transportation is potentially a much stronger transportation medium than is generally believed).
What the railroads lack is not opportunity but some of the managerial imaginativeness and audacity that made them great. Even an amateur like Jacques Barzun can see what is lacking when he says, “I grieve to see the most advanced physical and social organization of the last century go down in shabby disgrace for lack of the same comprehensive imagination that built it up. [What is lacking is] the will of the companies to survive and to satisfy the public by inventiveness and skill.”1

Shadow of Obsolescence

It is impossible to mention a single major industry that did not at one time qualify for the magic appellation of “growth industry.” In each case, the industry’s assumed strength lay in the apparently unchallenged superiority of its product. There appeared to be no effective substitute for it. It was itself a runaway substitute for the product it so triumphantly replaced. Yet one after another of these celebrated industries has come under a shadow. Let us look briefly at a few more of them, this time taking examples that have so far received a little less attention.

Dry Cleaning.



This was once a growth industry with lavish prospects. In an age of wool garments, imagine being finally able to get them clean safely and easily. The boom was on. Yet here we are 30 years after the boom started, and the industry is in trouble. Where has the competition come from? From a better way of cleaning? No. It has come from synthetic fibers and chemical additives that have cut the need for dry cleaning. But this is only the beginning. Lurking in the wings and ready to make chemical dry cleaning totally obsolete is that powerful magician, ultrasonics.

The interview 11-28


The interview
Many applicants wonder if we weight how and where they complete their interview, whether it’s on campus with an admissions officer or student, or an off-campus meeting with an alum. All interviews are evaluated the same way  that is, they’re your chance to tie everything together about your application, and go more in-depth on anything that will help us understand why Kellogg is right for you. Feel free to introduce new information, or to expand on something you touched on in the written application.
The interview is a piece of the application; it is important, but it’s just one piece.We look at all these things in context. They’re each a component to help round out the story that you want us to know about you. Above all else, be thoughtful, be honest and be yourself. Kellogg is very excited to get to know you.

Video essays 11-27

Video essays


Don’t stress too much about the video essay. It’s meant to be personal and authentic. If you’ve ever used Skype or Facetime, this should feel familiar and easy. We also added a lot of information about the video essays to our website, so that’s a great place to read more to ease your mind.
The video essay is about lifting you up off the pages of your written application and giving you a chance to showcase your Kellogg interest, personality and communication skills in a way that written essays and test scores can’t.
For more information about our video essays, take a look at this recent Poets & Quants story and this Crain’s story with Director of Admissions Kate Smith.

Letters of recommendation 11-28

Letters of recommendation
Many applicants wonder who is most suited and desirable to approach for a recommendation. I know that was a tough decision when I applied. The admissions committee is most interested in someone who knows you and your work experience, regardless of title or prior connection to Kellogg. A supervisor who understands your daily contributions may be more illuminating for us than a CEO who is less familiar with your work.
It’s a good idea to help your recommender understand why you’re interested in Kellogg and how you want your Kellogg MBA to further your career goals. It’s important to try and talk with your recommenders about these points, but it’s even more important to allow them to provide their own opinions and write the recommendation themselves.
We know some applicants aren’t able to approach a current supervisor for a recommendation. Previous supervisors, clients, or project managers may be good alternatives. If you don’t choose a current supervisor, just let us know why (it would affect my bonus, I would be asked to leave, etc.) — we understand that indicating you’re planning to leave the work force can have consequences in different industries. Most applicants who don’t have a current supervisor write their recommendation provide an explanation in the Additional Information section of the application.

HOW TO TURN SMALL TALK INTO SMART CONVERSATION 11-27


HOW TO TURN SMALL TALK INTO SMART CONVERSATION





Tips from a comedian and a journalist on the art of going from small talk to big ideas — all summer long.

Imagine almost any situation where two or more people are gathered—a wedding reception, a job interview, two off-duty cops hanging out in a Jacuzzi.
What do these situations have in common? Almost all of them involve people trying to talk with each other. But in these very moments where a conversation would enhance an encounter, we often fall short. We can’t think of a thing to say.
Or worse, we do a passable job at talking. We stagger through our romantic, professional and social worlds with the goal merely of not crashing, never considering that we might soar. We go home sweaty and puffy, and eat birthday cake in the shower.
WE STAGGER THROUGH OUR ROMANTIC, PROFESSIONAL AND SOCIAL WORLDS WITH THE GOAL MERELY OF NOT CRASHING, NEVER CONSIDERING THAT WE MIGHT SOAR.
We at What to Talk About headquarters set out to change this. Below, a few tips for introverts (and everyone else) on how to turn small talk into big ideas at the next Social Obligation Involving Strangers:

Ask for stories, not answers

One way to get beyond small talk is to ask open-ended questions. Aim for questions that invite people to tell stories, rather than give bland, one-word answers.
Instead of . . .
“How are you?”
“How was your day?”
“Where are you from?”
“What do you do?”
“What line of work are you in?”
“What’s your name?”
“How was your weekend?”
“What’s up?”
“Would you like some wine?”
“How long have you been living here?”
Try . . .
“What’s your story?”
“What did you do today?”
“What’s the strangest thing about where you grew up?”
“What’s the most interesting thing that happened at work today?”
“How’d you end up in your line of work?”
“What does your name mean? What would you like it to mean?”
“What was the best part of your weekend?”
“What are you looking forward to this week?”
“Who do you think is the luckiest person in this room?”
“What does this house remind you of?”
“If you could teleport by blinking your eyes, where would you go right now?”

Break the mirror

When small talk stalls out, it’s often due to a phenomenon we call “mirroring.” In our attempts to be polite, we often answer people’s questions directly, repeat their observations, or just blandly agree with whatever they say.
Mirrored example:
James: It’s a beautiful day!
John: Yes, it is a beautiful day!
See? By mirroring James’s opinion and language, John has followed the social norm, but he’s also paralyzed the discussion and missed a moment of fun. Instead, John needs to practice the art of disruption and move the dialogue forward:
Non-mirrored example:
James: It’s a beautiful day!
John: They say that the weather was just like this when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor. If that actually happened.
See? Now James and John are talking! Be provocative. Absurdity is underrated.

Leapfrog over the expected response

An even better way to break the boring-conversation mirror is to skip over the expected response, and go somewhere next-level:
Instead of :
Ron: How was your flight?
Carlos: My flight was good!
Beverly: It’s hot today.
Gino: Yeah, it sure is hot.
Riz: What’s up?
Keil: Hey, what’s up?
Try:
Ron: How was your flight?
Carlos: I’d be more intrigued by an airline where your ticket price was based on your body weight and IQ.
Beverly: It’s hot today.
Gino: In this dimension, yes.
Riz: What’s up?
Keil: Washing your chicken just splatters the bacteria everywhere.
Go ahead, be bold. Upend the dinner table conversation! Turn small talk into big ideas at the next summer wedding reception you’re forced to attend! You never know which ideas will be worth spreading next.

Essays 11-26

Essays

The essays are your opportunity to talk directly to the admissions committee and tell your story. Since this is about you and your experiences, there’s no right or wrong answer. The essays provide color about who you are and the important things in your background. We want to know what you’ll be adding to our Kellogg community, and contributing in our Kellogg classroom, so it’s really important to be yourself. Don’t worry about trying to say what you think we want to hear.
It’s also important to answer the question that’s been asked, in a way that lets us know you’re writing with Kellogg in mind, rather than say recycling a generic essay you’re submitting multiple places. Some applicants have a second reader look over their essay and guess what the prompt was to be sure their answer is as focused and relevant as possible.

Test scores for Admission at Kellogg 11-26


Test scores


At Kellogg we recognize that applying to business school is a time and labor-intensive process that requires a lot of care and consideration, as well as hours of test prep, interviewing and essay writing. We get lots of questions about how applicants can make their application stand out, so this week we are offering a few suggestions on how you can help us best understand who you are and why you want Kellogg to become a part of your future.
Test scores
Kellogg accepts both the GMAT and the GRE.. If you are worried about your score, know that multiple attempts are not discouraged. Taking the tests several times shows us that you’re committed to putting yourself in a position to submit the best possible application. We like to see that people work hard toward something and achieve it.
Applicants have asked in the past whether we favor one test versus the other. The answer is no. Ultimately what we are looking for is a balanced score set. We place just as much weight on the GRE as the GMAT. We want you to take whichever test is best for you.
The one exception to that is for our JD-MBA applicants. If you are applying to our dual-degree program with the Northwestern School of Law, you are required to take the GMAT.
We have also been asked whether we recommend a certain type of test prep class. We do not have any recommendations on that. People have different comfort levels when it comes to test taking, so do what makes you feel most comfortable.

Kellogg’s unique approach to data analytics 11-26

Kellogg’s unique approach to data analytics









It’s been a busy few weeks for data analytics at Kellogg. Earlier this month, Professor Florian Zettelmeyer hosted a panel discussion about the topic with prominent alumni at Facebook headquarters in Menlo Park, Calif. And this past weekend, three One-Year MBA students took first place in the Adobe Digital Analytics Competition, where they walked away with a check for $15,000.
With all the buzz about big data, Kellogg continues to be focused on preparing business leaders to harness the power of analytics.
“We believe that data analytics is fundamentally a leadership problem, and not primarily a data science or a technology problem,” Zettelmeyer said at the Facebook event. “While it’s true that data scientists are in short supply, I think what is even more in short supply are managers who know how to operate and lead effectively in this space.”
Zettelmeyer is the director of the Program on Data Analytics at Kellogg. The program is made up of a cross-disciplinary curriculum split into three sections, depending on the level of expertise students are looking to achieve.
  • To prepare for learning analytics, 

  • students should take the Foundational courses. These are core courses that all students – regardless of their interest in data analytics – are required to take.

  • To obtain a working knowledge of analytics,

  •  students should take the Foundational courses and Competitive Advantage courses. The latter classes are organized by different business problems where data analytics adds value.

  • To become fluent in analytics,

  • students should take the Foundational courses, Competitive Advantage courses, Deep-Dive courses and the Experiential lab. These courses provide depth in key aspects of analytics and help you gain real-world experience.
In addition to the distinct curriculum, the program benefits from collaborative relationships with companies on the cutting edge of big data and analytics, as well as proven thought leadership led by faculty members who drive and inspire conversations surrounding the intersection of business and analytics.
