 try for years sometimes).

Difficult situations always tell you who is the real friend for you. If you get through tough times, emotionally or/and physically, it matters a lot when someone checks on you or listens to you. 

Also from my personal experience, I always try to treat current friendships as best as I can. I think we often forget to say 'thank you for being here', 'I am so glad you are my friend', 'I love you' and when we argue 'I am sorry'. People come and go, we get closer or more distant to people as we go along in life. And it's never too late to reach up to someone you haven't spoken for some time to at least say hello.NEW DELHI: Despite long agitation by various sections of staff in Prasar Bharati and even strong strictures by Parliamentary Committees, All India Radio and Doodarshan continue to suffer from massive shortage or sanction of trained manpower.
It is learnt by indiantelevision.com that a total of 46 low power transmitters are presently relaying partial transmission (including ten each in Andhra Pradesh and Orissa) and activities at 22 Doordarshan studio centres are limited.
Similarly, a total of 24 stations of All India Radio in different parts of the country are only working as relay kendras, while another five - Dharmanagar and Longtherai in Tripura, Dungarpur in Rajasthan, Rairangpur in Orissa, and Suryapet in Andhra Pradesh - are technically ready but not commissioned because of shortage or sanctioning of trained operational and maintenance staff.
Doordarshan at present has 66 studio centres and 1415 transmitters. In the case of AIR, stations are functioning at a total of 238 places. AIR has a total of 380 transmitters (177 FM, 149 MW, and 54 Short Wave).
Information and Broadcasting sources admitted to indiantelevision.com that some of the AIR transmitters were working sub-optimally as they had outlived their useful life of more than twenty years. Problems have also been faced in AIR because of shortage of staff.
The old transmitters are being replaced in phased manner with state-of-the-art Digital Technology Transmitters. Replacement or upgradation of 34 FM transmitters, 40 Medium Wave Transmitters, and five Short Wave transmitters have been taken up in the Eleventh Plan, and the quality is expected to improve after this work is completed.
Early in 2010, Prasar Bharati had been reprimanded for its lethargy in not finalising recruitment rules and failing to make recruitment in the Indian Broadcasting (Programme) Service started in 1990 to train a separate cadre of employees for All India Radio and Doordarshan. Towards the end of the year following an agitation by employees, a task force was set up to go into manpower and recruitment problems.
The Parliamentary Committee on Empowerment of Women which had in 2009 given its report on ‘Working Conditions of women in Prasar Bharati‘ had in a strongly-worded Action Taken Report in February 2010 said it is "extremely unhappy with the callous approach of Prasar Bharati" and added that "after having a recruitment holiday of about twenty years, the organisation cannot afford to sink into further lethargy in finaliaing recruitment rules.‘ The committee viewed the delay seriously and reiterated that the recruitment process should not be delayed any further. All pre-requisites to initiate the process should be completed on a war footing," it added.
While the Committee welcomed the decision that all Central Government employees recruited for Akashvani or Doordarshan until 5 October 2007 are to be deemed as on deputation with effect from April 2000 until their retirement, it regretted that its recommendation in 2009 for finalisation of recruitment rules to implement this within three months had not been complied with.
It had observed in 2009 that there was a shortage of 44.8 per cent of the sanctioned strength in group ‘A‘ and about 40 per cent in Group ‘B‘ in Doordarshan, and 58.8 per cent of the posts in Group ‘A‘ were vacant in All India Radio. As many as 4629 posts in Doordarshan and 6433 posts in All India Radio remain unfilled.
It noticed that recruitment to the post of programme executives was last made 18 years earlier in 1991. The case is no different in various other categories of AIR and Doordarshan.
It had noted that there were 105 SC/ST vacancies in Doordarshan and 289 in AIR, which was a ‘matter of serious concern and anxiety‘ and should be rectified.
The Action Taken Report had also sought a clarification from the Ministry with regard to casual employees as it found the reply of the Ministry about two different schemes for regularization of casual employees to be contradictory to the reply given last year when it had said there was no approved scheme. The Committee had held Prasar Bharati guilty of unfair practices in not regularizing and not giving adequate remuneration to around 680 employees in Doordarshan and around 2200 in All India Radio who had been working as casual employees for up to 15 years in different capacities including news editors and news readers. The Report has also said that the limit of 72 days of engagement on casual basis is exploitative and unfair. The disparities in remuneration for casual employees should also be removed.
Referring to recruitment, it said employees should be kept in the grade for which they are selected and sufficient reasons should be given in writing to the candidates if there are any violations to this rule and appointees are taken at a lower grade. In all cases, persons who apply for a higher grade but are placed in a lower grade should be given their rightful grade within a period of three months of appointment. The Ministry should issue suitable directives to Prasar Bharati in this regard ‘with a view to ending exploitation of the hapless employees‘.<reponame>LeetCode-in-Java/LeetCode-in-Java

As we emerge from several hours in the operating room, our phones alert us to yet another school shooting, this time in Florida, in what was once the state’s “safest city.” We no longer feel shock — that was replaced by fatigue long ago.
When you’ve held the bullet-shattered heart of child in your hands, the victims of such tragic events are not statistics. They are faces forever seared into our memory. For our colleague, this time around they were also his neighbors.
The parents of the children felled at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School stand among thousands of families whose lives have been upended by a random act of gun violence. On any given day in the US, 47 children are brought into their local emergency room with a gunshot wound. In Chicago, where more than 500 children were wounded or killed by gunfire last year, the treatment of these wounds has become commonplace. Each one of these children is reflexively cared for by a stream of first responders and medical providers who have become experts in battlefield medicine. But we on the front lines are being stretched to the limits of our jobs.
Dr. Igor Nichiporenko, the director of trauma surgery at Broward North, described to us the scene in the trauma bay after the shooting, as child after child was rushed in.
The frozen facial expression of these children is all too familiar for surgeons. It is a rather unnatural appearance, and we see it almost every time we treat a child with a serious firearm injury. The child is awake and can see the tubes and wires they're attached to, and the commotion of doctors and nurses as we come in and out of the room. They are in horrible pain but don't fight or cry — they just sit there in stunned silence.
The Look has become an unwelcome reality for health care professionals across the United States. We see the same look in other places and situations — in countries like South Sudan, where famine is rampant and emaciated children, their eyes enlarged, gaze out at us impassively. But when famine hits, there is a real response. Doctors flood in and compassionate donors open their checkbooks. An epidemic like the Zika virus shakes us out of our stupor; an Ebola outbreak half a world away puts the government machinery in motion. The sense of urgency becomes palpable.
Why is this not true when the epidemic is gun violence in America, where 1,300 children die and over 5,700 are treated for gunshot wounds each year? There have already been 17 school shootings in 2018, and after each tragedy, the community comes together to process the reality that it really happened in their town.
Within a day or two of a mass school shooting, the young victims’ photographs are released, and eventually, so are the photos of the lonely, despondent teen who committed the crime. We are told about the weapons
