Snake and friendship

She Slept With Her Snake And Then The Vet Told Her Something Shocking.

This is a true story about a woman from India who lived in the Middle Ages and had a pet snake, python, which she loved so much. The snake was 4 meters long and looked healthy. However, one day her unusual pet just stopped eating.
This lack of appetite in the snake continued over a few weeks. The desperate woman tried everything she could and offered anything that a snake would like to strangle and eat. Nothing worked, and finally the woman took her loving pet to the veterinarian as a last resort.

The vet listened to the woman carefully and asked, “Does your snake sleep with you at night, wrap around you closely and spread out throughout its length?”
The woman was surprised and with a lot of hope she said, “Yes! Yes! It does it every day and it makes me so sad because I see something asking of me, and I cannot help it feel better.”
Then, the vet said something shocking and most unexpected. “Madam, your pet is not sick; it is just preparing to eat you.” Yes, the python wasn’t sick but it has been preparing to eat her instead!

“Every time, it is creeping and “hugging” you, wrapping around your body, it is checking size to weigh how a great meal you are and how it must be prepared before the attack. And yes, it does not eat, in order to have enough space to digest you more easily,” the vet said.

This story comes with a #moral – Even people close to you, whom you are very affectionate with, can, have mean intentions. You need to identify the snake around you and their true intent. Hugs and kisses are not always honest.
Don’t fear the enemy that attacks you, but the fake friend that hugs you.

Life at its Best

"The baby looks at things all day without winking; that is because his eyes are not focused on any particular object. He goes without knowing where he is going, and stops without knowing what he is doing. He merges himself within the surroundings and moves along with it. These are the principles of mental hygiene." - Zen

Confusion prevails amongst retailers over sale of banned FDCs as Delhi HC granted stay to several cos

Even as the pharma traders all over the country are in a state of confusion over the sale of banned FDCs with the obtaining of stay by the Delhi High Court on petitions filed by a number of companies and by the Indian Drugs Manufacturers Association (IDMA), some leading distributors are of the view that they are free to sell the banned products till a final decision comes from the court.

"Now the case is going on in different courts, and a final judgement is yet to come. We have got a stay order against the ban order from the Delhi High Court. Thereby, we have saved our members. However, we have not insisted our members to sell the banned products,” said a senior level office-bearer of the Indian Drugs Manufacturers Association.

When asked whether the manufacturing companies have started the process of taking back the products from the traders, he said there was no need of taking back them at present as the case is in the court. “The drugs control officials can not take any action against the manufacturers now. We have protected our members from any legal action by approaching the court,” he added.

A leading distributor and managing director of the wholesale company, Suresh Pharma Pvt Ltd in Chennai, Suresh Ranka said, “There is a stay from Delhi High Court against the ban of many companies' products and also on the petition filed by IDMA. Communications from different companies suggest that we can sell the products as the notification has been stayed.”

Delhi High Court had on March 17 stayed the operation of the DCGI ban on FDC drugs of about 30 pharma companies after initially giving interim relief on March 14 to Pfizer's cough syrup, Corex. Pharma majors like Cipla, Abbot, Mcleods, Procter & Gamble, Lupin, Reckitt Benckiser, Piramal, Alembic Pharma and Glenmark are among the companies who have obtained stay for their products.

Suresh Ranka argues that since the court has stayed the ban order of FDCs issued on March 10 by the DCGI, the traders are free to sell the products till the court pronounces a decision at the end of the case. He says that media is creating confusion over the matter and there is no need of any kind of confusion.


He further said the statement by the president of Tamil Nadu Chemists and Druggists Association (TNCDA) that drugs worth Rs. 40 crores (banned FDCs) have been returned to the manufacturers is wrong as no company has asked for return of goods so far.
