Grey’s Anatomy (Review)

Medical fiction show ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ on Star World, features doctors, interpersonal relationships and the drama that goes on in the ER, day in and day out.  One of the top-ranked American medical shows on television, the show has successfully hooked the audience across the globe for nearly six seasons.

The sixth season witnessed the transition of interns into resident surgeons, emotionally and professionally.  Rival Mercy West hospital merges with the Seattle Grace hospital in lieu of financial crisis faced by the latter. Relationships and their equations take sudden U-turns. Yang all set to marry Burke, is left alone at the altar while Meredith Grey and Derek Shepherd get married. Best friends O Malley and Izzie part ways.

Callie Torres, whose six-month old marriage ends with O Malley, enters a bisexual relationship with Arizona Robbins, a new pediatric surgeon. Doctors from Mercy West become the new competition for the surgeons and repeated conflicts cause chaos in the hospital, leading to the death of a patient. The hospital board sacks an intern. Two new surgeons have been hired – Owen and Altman. Both share a past and Yang who is attracted to Owen, gets trapped in their complicated relationship. Meredith Grey discovers Webber‘s alcoholic episodes and turns him over to the board of directors who ask him to resign or join rehab.

Shepherd becomes the new chief, juggling between surgery and administrative duties. He encourages Webber to enter the AA program and get back to surgery. After her bitter divorce and intern O Malley’s sudden death in a bad road accident, the show’s favorite Miranda Bailey had lost all feelings and becomes mechanical. 
She falls in love with a surgeon who has recently joined the hospital. In an unusually complicated case, Shepherd has to make a difficult choice to end the life of a woman. The grieving husband sues the hospital and accuses Shepherd of killing his wife.

Somehow the hospital counsel manages to prevent the man from suing the hospital. The season’s grand finale ended on a rather tragic note when the same man wreaked havoc in the Seattle Grace hospital, shoots Derek Shepherd and every surgeon he thought was responsible for his wife’s death.

Hug and Kiss ‘em & Hold ‘em close to you!

From the moment I conceived, it was my fantasy to have a super tactile bond with my child after he/she would be born (for the longest possible time, I felt it would be a girl!). After my son was born, things became different and the first three months were extremely painful feeding him or holding him thanks to my C-section stitches. So all maternal feelings vanished into thin air and all I could think was sleep or having “me-time”.  There was hardly a chance to cuddle up with him! Post partum depression had hit me big time and me not being able to calm down a screaming infant had dipped my morale too. Motherhood was nothing like I had imagined it would be! Besides I was terrified that my son would not accept me if I didn’t develop a bond early on. Of course, that did not happen. It was a mom’s fear that had spoken. After he entered the infamous toddler phase, I became the quintessential “villain” for my son – the usual don’t do this and that. Yet again, my dreams of becoming...

BPOs don multiple hats...

Till the advent of the computers, all papers and legal documents of every company were filed, stored and catalogued systematically in the form of files stacked in cabinets. If one had to access any of the data, they would have to employ people for the same work. Small and big organizations had to employ extra manpower if they wanted additional help regarding verification of financial transactions and company expansion activities. Outsourcing of jobs was unknown to many in the pre-digital era. Though, the system of awarding contracts to a third party for making machinery parts had begun long ago. Slowly, but steadily, organizations began understanding that they need to outsource other jobs as well, to increase the productivity of their company as well as performance of employees. They started creating strategies for to outsource their business to other companies, minimizing their own labor costs.
