Smoking a cigarette may now burn a hole in your pocket.
From October 2, smoking would be banned in all public places. Private offices and other establishments can no longer have designated rooms for puffing cigarettes. The ban also includes hotels and restaurants.
According to Health Minister Anbumani Ramadoss, smokers will have to step outside into open space if they wish to smoke.
Though in the beginning, the fine would be only Rs 200, the government is trying to amend the act and in future the fine may go up to Rs 1,000.
Even the employer can be fined if somebody is found smoking within the office premises.

The fate of 2,500-odd employees working for investment banking giant Lehman Brothers in India remains uncertain following its parent company's decision to file for bankruptcy protection in the United States.
Lehman said in a statement that its New York office intends to file for bankruptcy protection as it owes over $600 billion to lenders.
However, it highlighted that no other Lehman Brothers' US subsidiaries or affiliates, including its broker-dealer and investment management subsidiaries, are included in the filing.
The filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, which allows a company to restructure while creditor claims are held at bay, was made in the US Bankruptcy Court in the Southern District of New York by the investment bank's holding company, Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.

Dear Systems Analyst, I am desperate for some help! I recently upgraded my program from Girlfriend 7.0 to Wife 1.0 and found that the new program began unexpected Child Processing and also took up a lot of space and valuable resources.
This wasn’t mentioned in the product brochure. In addition Wife 1.0 installs itself into all other programs and launches during systems initialization and then it monitors all other system activities. Applications such as “Boys’ Night out 2.5″ and “Golf 5.3″ no longer run, and crashes the system whenever selected. Attempting to operate selected “Saturday Football 6.3″ always fails and “Saturday Shopping 7.1″ runs instead. I cannot seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background whilst attempting to run any of my favourite

Dhirubhai Ambani, founder of the Reliance Industries, was no ordinary leader. He was a man who gave management a whole new "ism".
There is a new "ism" that I've been meaning to add to the vast world of words for quite a while now. Because, without exaggeration, it's a word for which no synonym can do full justice: "Dhirubhaism".
Inspired by the truly phenomenal Dhirubhai H Ambani, it denotes a characteristic, tendency or syndrome as demonstrated by its inspirer. Dhirubhai, on his part, had he been around, would have laughed heartily and declared, "Small men like me don't inspire big words!"
There you have it - now that is a classic Dhirubhaism, the tendency to disregard one's own invaluable contribution to society as significant.
I'm sure everyone who knew Dhirubhai well will have his or her own little anecdote that illustrates his unique personality. He was a person whose heart and head both worked at peak efficiency levels, all the time. And that resulted in a truly unique and remarkable work philosophy, which is what I would like to define as Dhirubhaism.
