Have we reached point where Newspapers too need Adult Certification ?

-
When we walk into a theatre to watch a 'A' certified movie, kids below the age of 18 years are not allowed.

Reason : They are not matured enough to be exposed to sexual / violent content.



But, recently as i was reading through newspaper i happened to read an article with talked about SEX and also with some obscene pictures.




Cinema is a one time exposure, but newspapers are daily source and therefore, kids accessibility to such content is easy. Moreover, in a digital era this accessibility is becoming more and more easy.

Summary :

All am trying to convey through this blog, is requesting the newspaper media to get more responsible and avoid such content in newspaper.

Visiting Card, an important asset to be carried along everywhere we travel, as it is the starting point of conversation. Recently, when we were chatting on the same topic and we debated if job title or designation to be on the visiting card.  " My Thoughts " is a job title can help contacts understand your role & responsibility within a company, quickly determine the decision making power the position holds.

Which do you think is the right way of having the business card ?

World is being a more competitive place and to retain customers and increase the sales / turnover of an organisation, there are many things a company can plan / strategize. But many times the company plans to achieve these strategies by squeezing the existing resources. But since many employees fear saying "NO" to the managers, they take the tasks / additional load which would impact the productivity levels of their existing tasks : Am not saying here that each task an employee receives, must say "NO" to it, but my point is that the employee needs to evaluate it before accepting.  1. What is current occupancy level ?  Nobody in the organisation is working for 100% of their working hours. This is a known fact to all. But the occupancy level differs for each employee.
