Gayatri Mohanty: How A 40-Year Old Mountaineer’s Journey Is Inspiring Women All Across The World

Gayatri Mohanty: How A 40-Year Old Mountaineer’s Journey Is Inspiring Women All Across The World

When you have to describe Gayatri Mohanty to somebody, you find it difficult to find the right adjectives to do so. Gayatri grew up in a small town that was driven by patriarchal thoughts and approaches. Her father, however, always encouraged her to follow her dreams and supported her in every decision she took in her life. Armed with an MBA degree from a reputed management institute, Gayatri embarked upon a career as a banker.

After spending 12 years in the banking sector and rising through the ranks, Gayatri decided to take a break from her professional career to look after her family which included a little child to whom she was a mother. While she missed being a part of a professional setup, this phase helped her get clarity on what her true calling in life was. A visit to the mountaineering club in Bengaluru, where she is based, gave her a new perspective and gave birth to the mountaineer in her.

“I strongly believe that no dream is impossible to achieve if you are determined enough. I grew up in a society where most women were forbidden from dreaming and having certain aspirations in life. For most girls and women around me, even having a professional career was a distant dream. Young women were told to get married, have children and look after the household. I feel blessed to have a strong support system in the form of my parents, husband, and children. They always gave me the support and encouragement to do whatever I wished to do in life”, says Gayatri.

After quitting her job in the year 2007, Gayatri had planned to go for a hike. That’s when the Triund hike in Himachal Pradesh happened. It was a one-night hike and it changed Gayatri’s life forever. She is somebody who has always believed in a sense of community and building strong bonds with people which is very difficult to do in a tier-1 or a cosmopolitan city. Her first trek made her realize that there was a great scope for her to meet new people and build solid friendships in this space. She found the process so amazing that she decided to keep hiking.

“I did my basic mountaineering course at the age of 40 which is very rare. I did that a couple of months back after going on multiple treks as I wanted to study it further. I underwent a gruelling training session for 28 days from the Nehru Institute of Mountaineering. It made me much stronger. The most difficult trek for me was the Chadar trek in Ladakh where we had to trek in -40 degrees. I finished the Glacier trek with a broken twist. For seven days, I was in pain but I managed to complete the trek without any plaster or medical support. That was a turning point in my life as a mountaineer. As an NCC Cadet, I represented Odisha in the year 2002. I was in college then. Despite having injured my leg, I went ahead and participated in the Rajpath march on 26 January 2022. I have always found my strength in pain. Incidents like these have shaped up my life. For the Youth Exchange Program organized in 2003, I was selected by the NCC to represent India in Nepal.

Mountaineering has given Gayatri a purpose in life. With time, she believes she has become much stronger and is prepared to learn and do many more things in life. She asserts that mental strength is as important to become a mountaineer as physical strength is. She also believes that the process of learning never stops no matter how skilled or experienced you become.

“Last year, when I did an Everest Base Camp trek, I climbed two other peaks, Nagar Shankh, and Kala Patthar. These were very close to the Everest Base Camp. Everest Base Camp itself is a very difficult trek. I received a lot of encouragement from Lt. Colonel Romil Barthwal, who happens to be one of the founders of the expedition company Boots & Crampons. He told me that I should start climbing higher peaks. I came back from Everest Base camp and decided to do 7 summits across 7 different parts of the world. I recently climbed Mount Kosciuszko, Australia’s highest peak which is 2228 meters above sea level. My goal is to complete 7 summits.”

Apart from fulfilling her own dreams, Gayatri is now helping people realize their dreams and chase their passion in an organized manner. She has launched her own company where she and her partner encourage people to follow their dreams. Being a mountaineer has helped her have a clear mindset and a better outlook towards life. Through her endeavours, she wants people to understand the importance of following one’s dreams and never feel unsure walking down the roads that have not been explored earlier.

In the last couple of years, Gayatri seems to have got many of her dreams off her checklist. As a mountaineer, she has completed several difficult treks including ascending Africa’s highest peak Mount Kilimanjaro situated at 5895 meters above sea level. She has also climbed Mount Elbrus which is Europe’s highest peak at 5642 meters above sea level. There have been several incidents that shed light on the kind of passion she has for mountaineering. During one of her treks, Gayatri broke her wrist and suffered from a great amount of pain. Despite this, she completed the trek while taking all the necessary precautions.

Elaborating on this, she says, “When you participate in mountaineering, you should be ready to face some challenges that come your way. Throughout my life, I have believed in one important principle. Regardless of which situation you are in, you must give your best and never think about giving up. When I was a banker, I worked diligently and performed my duties to the best of my abilities. I have followed the same principle in my mountaineering career. This mindset has been one of the reasons behind doors opening up for me in different sectors and professions.”

Gayatri wears multiple hats and wears them all very well. Apart from being a renowned mountaineer, Gayatri is a professional fitness consultant and a certified Zumba trainer. She has been crowned at multiple beauty pageants including Mrs. India Global Universe and Mrs. Dazzling Diva. She was the runner-up at the Mrs. Karnataka pageant. She has excelled in everything she has done so far and that speaks volumes about the kind of dedication she has put into everything she has explored in her life. One of the reasons behind her doing so many things efficiently, she believes, is her healthy lifestyle.

“You will be able to achieve something in life only when you have a healthy body and a well-functioning mind. My love for fitness has helped me remain positive and in control of my mind through all the ups and down I have gone through in life. It also gave me the strength to achieve more than I had wished for. It also led me towards becoming a fitness consultant and imparting my knowledge of health and well-being to several individuals”, she says.

Gayatri has won numerous awards and received accolades from institutions of global repute for her mountaineering endeavours. When she is not busy climbing the mountains, she makes people aware of the importance of fitness in one’s life and how one should go about achieving a healthy lifestyle. While the world sees her as an over-achiever, Gayatri feels her journey has just begun.

How to Create Animation in Adobe After Effects

How to Create Animation in Adobe After Effects

One of the most important things to consider when creating an animation is how to keep it realistic. Animation is meant to be interactive, so you want to make sure that the character looks its best from every angle. You can do this by using secondary actions, such as a person blinking. These secondary actions should not distract from the main action.

In the early 1900s, artists from around the world began experimenting with animation. One example of this is the Japanese film series Katsudo Shashin, which dates from 1907 to 1911. This type of animation wasn’t considered acceptable in Western films until the 1920s, when it began to be viewed as a novelty. During this time, sound was introduced to movies, and films began to use it in their productions. During this period, Disney released the first feature-length cartoon, Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.

During the animation process, there are various keyframe properties that can be edited. Keyframe properties include camera position, layer visibility, and map time component. You can also select to exclude certain keyframes from the animation if desired. Overlays are also customizable. Using the Overlay tab, you can see all the animation overlays and adjust their properties accordingly.

In the early 20th century, animation became commercially viable, and a variety of techniques was used to create the first animation films. A few years later, cinematography was developed and used to produce animated pictures. These movies were not the first, but they were the first to use modern techniques and be released widely. Walt Disney wanted to create an experience for the audience that would appeal to their young audiences, and he also drew inspiration from his own troubled childhood.

The oldest type of animation is stop motion. While this technique is much older than 3D computer animation, the concept of storytelling has been around for centuries. Some of the earliest examples of animation include shadow puppetry in 200 A.D., the first real image projector, and stop-motion. These animation techniques combine traditional and modern techniques to create an entertaining and enchanting animated film.

The process of creating animation is difficult and involves a lot of work. While it may seem easy to create a single good-looking animation, it can take thousands of pictures to achieve the same level of quality. However, the benefits of animation for design and business are undeniable. By incorporating animation into a project, you can transform the ordinary into something spectacular.

While many traditional methods of animation are considered the foundation of modern animation, computer animation has been around for decades. Computer animation was developed and first appeared in the 1940s when people began using computers to create animated titles for movies. In fact, Vertigo is considered to be the first live action film that uses computer animation.

High School Students Tackle Educational Inequality Through Free Android App

High School Students Tackle Educational Inequality Through Free Android App

App enables self-study, with 10,000+ questions, chapter summaries, and videos

Of the 265 million students in India, close to twenty percent drop out before Grade 10 mostly because of educational inequality. Lack of access to good quality educational resources is one of the key facets of this inequality, leading to significantly lower educational success and social mobility for the impacted students. While students with access to paid online courses and/or teacher support can make progress, millions of students without these resources fall behind.

To address this gap, Vedanth Nandivada, and Siddanth Nandivada, Grade 12 and 9 students respectively, built a free Android app called “IndiaExamPrep”  (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.indiaexamprep.app ). The IndiaExamPrep App helps students prepare for Indian exams (CBSE / State syllabi) on their own, by first reading the summary of each chapter and then answering chapter-wise questions without the help of teachers. Additionally, for Grades 9 and 10, chapter-wise videos are available too. This provides students with a great way to learn step-by-step by repeating the practice tests till they are comfortable with each chapter. In addition, the app can also help organizations assess performance to identify high-scoring students for awarding merit-based scholarships or offering additional support in the form of teaching assistance to those scoring low.

“There are so many students in India who don’t have access to high-quality education that can help them understand concepts taught in class. Digital solutions can play a big part in helping them learn and score better. While there are many free open-source apps available, they do not cater to the Indian syllabi completely. Commercial apps are, of course, too expensive for many,” said Vedanth Nandivada, who along with his younger brother Siddanth and family resides in Bangalore.

To build the app, Vedanth and Siddanth went through NCERT books, Exemplar websites, and YouTube, and collected chapter summaries, relevant videos, and more than 10,000 Indian CBSE and State Boards questions for Grades 6 to 10 organizing them by subject and chapters. They then programmed the app to enable advanced quizzing. They have made the IndiaExamPrep app available in English, Kannada, Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi using Machine Learning. The IndiaExamPrep App has a 4.6-star rating in the Android Play Store with over 70 reviews and many testimonials on YouTube. The App has over 17,000 downloads and 6,000 hours of usage.

Vedanth and Siddanth are hoping that free apps like IndiaExamPrep will help in reducing educational inequalities in our society.  They are working towards improving the content of the app, while also creating awareness so that it reaches more students who can benefit from it.

The Many Uses of Drones

The Many Uses of Drones

The use of unmanned aircraft (UAVs) has opened up a whole new world of possibilities. Controlled by a smartphone app or remote, these drones are now becoming more widely available, making them useful for many uses, including disaster relief and agriculture. They have the potential to reach remote areas while requiring minimal effort, time and energy. Though drones have been around for decades, their recent popularity and rapid adoption across industries are making them more accessible to the general public.

A drone is capable of performing a variety of tasks, including performing surveys, mapping, and research. They can also detonate bombs, and are equipped with cameras, thermal sensors, and night vision sensors. These drones can also be used to spy on people and areas. Drones can even deliver packages.

Drones are unmanned aerial vehicles that look like small helicopters or reconnaissance aircraft. Their small size makes them incredibly versatile. Their many uses range from weather forecasting to speeding up the inspection of electricity grids. But their main purpose is to observe our environment. And as the technology continues to improve, their uses will continue to increase.

The first drone was a radio-controlled model that flies without a human pilot. It was developed by the U.S. Army during World War I. The Kettering Bug, a prototype of an unmanned “flying bomb,” was used but never deployed in combat. In 1935, a full-sized biplane named the de Havilland DH82B, or “Queen Bee,” was fitted with a radio and used to train artillery gunners. The name “drone” is a play on the “Queen Bee” nomenclature.

Drones are now available in many sizes and shapes. Different drones are designed to perform different jobs. Some are small and easy to control, while others are capable of carrying varying sized payloads. Some are lightweight and can fly hundreds of feet. You can also find drones with advanced features and sensors.

Drones are widely used for research and wildlife monitoring. They can survey habitat and search for illegal deforestation. These drones are also useful in search and rescue operations. They can be sent to dangerous locations, and can provide detailed information about what happened. This is especially useful in remote areas where humans cannot easily access.

Drones are also used for amateur filming. Some have cameras that can capture high-definition images. Some drones are so advanced that they can fit as many people as a small passenger jet. Currently, personal drone use is legal, but there are restrictions. You must be sure to register your drone with the FAA before flying one.

The use of drones has grown significantly in recent years. They are increasingly becoming integral to businesses, governmental agencies and even individuals. They can help with the search for survivors in hurricanes and provide an eye-in-the-sky during terrorist attacks. They are also increasingly making their way into our homes. They are valuable tools for photographers, vloggers and social media users.
