Fw: Rajni v/s Amitabh Bachan(heights!!!!)
- Forwarded Message Rajnikant was bragging to Amitabh Bachan one day, You know, I know everyone Just name someone, anyone, and I know them. Tired of his boasting, Amitabh Bachan called his bluff, OK, Rajini how about Tom Cruise? Sure, yes, Tom and I are old friends, and I can prove it Rajini said. So Rajini and Amitabh Bachan fly out to Hollywood and knock on Tom Cruise's door, and sure enough, Tom Cruise shouts :--- Thalaiva! Great to see you! You and your friend come right in and join me for lunch! ..Although impressed, Amitabh Bachan is still skeptical.After they leave Cruise's house, he tells Rajini that he thinks Rajini knowing Cruise was just lucky. No, no, just name anyone else Rajini says .President Bush, Amitabh Bachan quickly retorts ..Yes, Rajini says, I know him . And off they go. At the White House, Bush spots Rajini on the tour and motions him, saying, :Rajini, what a surprise, I was just on my way to a meeting, but you and your friend come on in and let's have a cup of coffee first and catch up. Well, Amitabh Bachan is much shaken by now, but still not totally convinced. Af ter they leave the White House grounds, he implores her to name anyone else. The Pope, Amitabh Bachan replies ..Sure! says Rajini, My folks are from Germany and I've known the Pope a long time. Rajini and Amitabh Bachan are assembled with the masses in Vatican Square when Rajini says, This will never work. I can't catch the Pope's eye among all these people. Tell you what, I know all the guards so let me just go upstairs and I'll come out on the balcony with the Pope. And he disappears into the crowd headed toward the Vatican .. Sure enough, half an hour later Rajini emerges with the Pope on the balcony. But by the time Rajini returns, he finds that Amitabh Bachan has had a heart attack and is surrounded by paramedics. Wo rking his way to Amitabh Bachan's side, Rajini asks her, What happened? Amitabh Bachan looks up and says, I was doing fine until u and the pope came out on the balcony and the man next to me said, * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Who's that on the balcony with Rajini?

Fw: :Sardarji's Mom's Letter {very very funny}
May be an old one.However forwarding the same. S.V.SAI BABA - Dear Banta, Vahe Guru ! I am in a well here and hoping you are in the same well there. I'm writing this letter slowly, because I know you cannot read fast. We don't live where we did when you left home. Your dad read in the newspaper that most accidents happen 20 miles from home, so we moved 20 miles. I wont be able to send the address as the last Sardar who stayed here took the house numbers with them for their new house so they would not have to change their address. Hopefully by next week we will be able to bring our earlier address plate here, so that our address will remain same too. This place is really nice. It even has a washing machine, situated right above the commode. I'm not sure it works.. Last week I put in 3 shirts, pulled the chain and haven't seen them since.. The weather here isn't too bad. It rained only twice last week. The first time it rained for 3 days and second time for 4 days. The coat you wanted me to send you, your Aunt said it would be a little too heavy to send in the mail with all the metal buttons, so we cut them off and put them in the pocket. Your father has another job. He has 500 men under him. He is cutting the grass at the cemetery. By the way I took Bahu to our club's poolside. The manager is really badmash. He told her that two-piece swimming suit is not allowed in this club. We were confused as to which piece should we remove? Your sister had a baby this morning. I haven't found out whether it is a girl or a boy, so I don't know whether you are an Aunt or Uncle. Your uncle, Jetinder fell in a nearby well. Some men tried to pull him out, but he fought them off bravely and drowned. We cremated him and he burned for three days. Your best friend, Balwinder, is no more. He died trying to fulfill his father's last wishes. His father had wished to be buried at sea after he died. And your friend died while in the process of digging a grave for his father. There isn't much more news this time. Nothing much has happened. P.S: Beta, I was going to send you some money but by the time I realized, I had already sealed off this letter.

So... how significant should we really be feeling now? And to think that each of us is but one person (out of a few billion) on earth and The Creator cares about each of us. Pretty awesome.

Fw: [forwards4all] Save Indian Economy - Save INDIA
Save Indian Economy - Save INDIA Dear Friends, WE ALL CAN COLLECTIVELY MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE TO THE INDIAN ECONOMY BY FOLLOWING FEW SIMPLE STEPS. Our country like many other ASIAN countries is undergoing a severe Economic crunch. Many INDIAN industries are closing Down. The INDIAN economy is in a crisis and if we do not take proper steps to control those, we will be in a critical situation. More than 30,000 crore rupees of foreign exchange are being siphoned out of our country on products such as cosmetics, snacks, tea, beverages... etc which are consumed here. To protect our own interests we request everybody to use INDIAN Products only for next two years. With the rise in petrol prices, if we do not do this, the rupee will devalue further and we will end up paying much more for the same products in the near future. A cold drink costs only 70 to 80 paisa to produce, but is sold for NINE rupees, and a major chunk of profits from these are sent abroad. This is a serious drain on INDIAN economy. Remember, COCA COLA and PEPSI are US-based companies and our money is being drained to USA. What can you do? You can consider some of the better alternatives to aerated drinks. You can drink SWEET MILK, LEMON JUICE, FRESH FRUIT JUICES, CHILLED LASSI (SWEET OR SOUR), BUTTER MILK, COCONUT WATER, JALJEERA, MASALA MILK.. what´s more, everyone deserves a healthy drink, including you! 1. Buy only products manufactured by WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES. 2. INFORM as many people as possible about this.. Spread Awareness. This is the only way to save our country from severe economic crisis. You don´t need to give-up your lifestyle. You just need to choose an alternate Product. All categories of products are available from WHOLLY INDIAN COMPANIES. *** LIST OF PRODUCTS *** 1. BATHING SOAP: USE - CINTHOL OTHER GODREJ BRANDS, SANTOOR, WIPRO SHIKAKAI, MYSORE SANDAL, MARGO, NEEM, EVITA, MEDIMIX, GANGA , NIRMA BATH CHANDRIKA DON´T USE - LUX, LIFEBOY, REXONA, LIRIL, DOVE, PEARS, HAMAM, LESANCY, CAMAY, PALMOLIVE 2. TOOTH PASTE: USE - NEEM, BABOOL, PROMISE, VICO VAJRADANTI, PRUDENT, DABUR PRODUCTS, MISWAK DON´T USE - COLGATE, CLOSE UP, PEPSODENT, CIBACA, FORHANS, MENTADENT. 3.TOOTH BRUSH: USE - PRUDENT, AJANTA , PROMISE DON´T USE - COLGATE, CLOSE UP, PEPSODENT, FORHANS,ORAL- B 4. SHAVING CREAM: USE - GODREJ, EMAMI DON´T USE - PALMOLIVE, OLD SPICE, GILLETE 5. BLADE: USE - SUPERMAX, TOPAZ, LAZER, ASHOKA DON´T USE - SEVEN-O -CLOCK, 365 , GILLETTE 6. TALCUM POWDER: USE - SANTOOR, GOKUL, CINTHOL, WIPRO BABY POWDER, BOROPLUS DON´T USE - PONDS, OLD SPICE, JOHNSON BABY POWDER, SHOWER TO SHOWER 7.MILK POWDER: USE - INDIANA , AMUL, AMULYA DON´T USE - ANIKSPRAY, MILKANA, EVERYDAY MILK, MILKMAID. 8.SHAMPOO: USE - LAKME, NIRMA, VELVET DON´T USE - HALO, ALL CLEAR, NYLE, SUNSILK, HEAD AND SHOULDERS, PANTENE 9.MOBILE CONNECTIONS USE - RELIANCE, BSNL, AIRTEL DON´T USE - VODAFONE (previously HUTCH) Every INDIAN product you buy makes a big difference. It saves INDIA . Let us take a firm decision today. BUY INDIAN, BE INDIAN. We are not against of Foreign products. WE ARE NOT ANTI-MULTINATIONAL. WE ARE TRYING TO SAVE OUR NATION. WE ARE FOR IMPORTED COMPUTER CHIPS NOT FOR IMPORTED POTATO CHIPS. Although we ACHIEVED OUR INDEPENDENCE more than 50 years ago, EVERY DAY IS A STRUGGLE FOR REAL FREEDOM. FINALLY: It may not be possible or very difficult to GIVE UP ALL OF THE ITEMS MENTIONED ABOVE, BUT CAN´T WE GIVE UP ATLEAST THREE ITEMS FOR THE SAKE OF OUR COUNTRY´S ECONOMY? And don´t forget to forward this mail to all your friends to create awareness. . __,_._,___ Unlimited freedom, unlimited storage.

Re: Survival of Eagles
The mail forwarded by me on Survival of Eagles is reported to be a Hoax mail in circulation. The facts given in Snopes.com are given below: Rebirth of the Eagle Claim: Eagles extend their lifespans by removing their beaks, talons, and feathers in order to grow new ones. Status: False. Example: [Collected on the Internet, May 2007] | View | Upload your own Origins: The above-displayed PowerPoint presentation entitled The Rebirth of the Eagle (or The Story of the Eagle) began hitting the snopes.com inbox in May 2007. The presentation explains, in a series of slides, that by the time an eagle reaches the age of 30 or so, its physical condition has deteriorated to the point that survival is difficult: its talons lose their flexibility and cannot properly grip prey, its beak becomes dull and bent, and its wing feathers grow thick and heavy, sticking to its chest and impairing its flight. The bird then retreats to a mountaintop, where over a five-month period it sequentially knocks off its beak by banging it against a rock, plucks out its talons, and then plucks out its feathers, each stage producing a regrowth of the removed body parts that renews the eagle and allows it to live for another 30-40 years. Although this tale may provide a vivid illustration of the philosophy (presented on the final slide) that sometimes one must shed the past in order to move forward (or, as often expressed, In order to rebuild, you must first tear down), it is merely a myth that strays far from the reality of an eagle's life, according to the University of Minnesota's Raptor Center: We have received quite a few e-mails regarding the Eagle Rebirth story recently. The story is quite far from what an eagle's life truly consists of, but we would be happy to share with you the natural history of the Bald Eagle. Eagles would not typically lose their beak or talons, unless it was the result of a traumatic injury. The talons and beak are two of the three best defining features of what makes these birds raptors. Without the sharp talons for catching prey and the strong, sharp beak for tearing food, the raptor would certainly die of starvation. An eagle hatches with both a beak and talons and these will continue to grow throughout the bird's life. The beak and talons are composed of hard keratin and are somewhat similar to human fingernails. The talons of the eagle are not flexible as the story claims. New layers of keratin growth build onto the old layers ensuring a strong structure for the raptor. The raptor keeps the beak in good condition naturally in the wild by eating tough prey and rubbing the beak clean on stones or other hard surfaces (feaking) after eating. Eagles and other raptors generally do not pluck out their feathers. All birds, including raptors, do go through a process of losing feathers and this is called a molt. A bird's feathers do suffer regular wear and tear so, ultimately, the quality of the feather will decrease and it will need to be replaced. The feathers are not lost all at the same time. If this were true, the bird would be unprotected from natural elements and more importantly it would not be able to fly. Eagles and all other raptors need to fly in order to hunt and survive so the loss of flight would most likely mean starvation for the bird. Each feather comes from a feather follicle much like hair does on a mammal. When the feather is first emerging and developing it has a blood supply coming from the body going up into the shaft of the feather. If this feather is broken or pulled out it is not only very painful for the bird, but could result in blood loss and damage to the feather follicle. Severe damage to the feather follicle could result in the permanent loss of the follicle. If a feather is lost before a molt it could take up to a year to be replaced. Raptors and all other birds molt in a symmetrical pattern. If a primary feather is molted on the left wing, the same feather is molted simultaneously on the right wing. This can ensure balance in flight for the bird while it hunts during this molting period. The average life span of an eagle is approximately 30 years. The eagle, like many other living organisms, does not have the luxury of making the decision to extend their life cycle far beyond what is normal for its species. In captivity, an eagle may live beyond what the average life expectancy is, because it receives both regular and nutritious meals, has access to veterinary care and can be sheltered from the harsh elements by housing provided by the facility caring for the bird. Even then, the life span is in no way extended as far as this myth is suggesting. There is speculation as to the origin of this myth, but we can assure you that none of it is true.

Here's what you do: First, open your address book and click on 'new contact,' just as you would do if you were adding a new friend to your list of email addresses. In the window where you would type your friend's first name, type in ' AAA'. For the screen name or email address, type ...@aaa. AAA Now, here's what you've done and why it works: The name 'AAA' will be placed at the top of your address book as entry #1. This will be where the worm will start in an effort to send itself to all your friends. When it tries to send itself to ...@aaa. AAA, it will be undeliverable because of the phony email address you entered. If the first attempt fails (which it will because of the phony address), the worm goes no further and none of your friends will be infected. Here's the second great advantage of this method: If an email cannot be delivered, you will be notified of this in your In Box almost immediately. Hence, if you ever get an email telling you that an email addressed to ...@aaa. AAA could not be delivered, you know right away that you have the worm virus in your system. You can then take steps to get rid of it! Pretty slick huh? Try it If everybody you know does this then you need not ever worry about opening mail from friends.

Fw: [forwards4all] Rafflesia Arnoldi [World’s Largest Flower]
Rafflesia Arnoldi - World’s largest flower The largest flower in the world, the Rafflesia Arnoldi, weighs 7 kg (15 pounds) and grows only on the Sumatra island of Indonesia. Its petals grow to 0.5 metre (1.6 feet) long and 2.5 cm (1 inch) thick. There are 16 species of rafflesia, found in Sumatra, Malaysia and Borneo. The species is named after the naturalist Sir Stamford Raffles, who founded the British colony of Singapore in 1819. Raffles discovered the parasitic plant with his friend Dr. Joseph Arnold during their travels in May 1818. The Rafflesia Arnoldi is named after the two. Several species of Rafflesia grow in the jungles of Southeast Asia, all of them threatened or endangered. Rafflesia arnoldii is the largest; its blossom attains a diameter of nearly a meter and can weigh up to 11 kg. Not only is it the world's largest flower, it is one of the most bizarre and improbable organisms on the planet. It produces no leaves, stems or roots but lives as a parasite on the Tetrastigma vine, which grows only in primary (undisturbed) rainforest. Only the flower or bud can be seen; the rest of the plant exists only as filaments within its unfortunate host. The blossom is pollinated by flies attracted by its scent, which resembles that of carrion. The Rafflesia is rare and fairly hard to locate. It is especially difficult to see in bloom; the buds take many months to develop and the blossom lasts for just a few days. How many of these strange plants still survive is unknown, but the last of them can be expected to vanish as the remaining primary forests of Borneo and Sumatra are burned. However fascinating and beautiful the rafflesia arnoldi may be, it is also called “corpse flower” and really reeks, the latter to attract flies for pollination. Of about 200,000 kinds of flowers in the world, the smallest is the duckweed, which can only be seen with a microscope. Explore and discover exciting holidays and getaways with Yahoo!

Fw: [forwards4all] Installing Husband (Funny)
-- Subject: [forwards4all] Installing Husband (Funny) Installing Husband (Funny) A desperate woman writes to the Technical support Guy: Dear Tech Support, Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and I noticed a distinct slowdown in the overall system performance, particularly in the flower and jewellery applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0. In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs, such as Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5, and then installed undesirable programs such as NEWS 5.0, MONEY 3.0 and CRICKET 4.1. Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and Housecleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system. Please note that I have tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but to no avail. What can I do? Signed, Desperate Woman She got a reply back from the Technical Support Guy. DEAR DESPERATE Madam, First, keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, while Husband 1.0 is an operating system. Please enter command: i thought you loved me. html and try to download Tears 6.2 and do not forget to install the Guilt 3.0 update. If that application works as designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications Jewellery 2.0 and Flowers 3.5. However, remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0 to default to Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0 or Beer 6.1. Please note that Beer 6. 1 is a very bad program that will download the Farting and Snoring Loudly Beta. Whatever you do, DO NOT under any circumstances install Mother-In-Law 1.0 (it runs a virus in the background that will eventually seize control of all your system resources.) In addition, please do not attempt to reinstall the Boyfriend 5.0 program. These are unsupported applications and will crash Husband 1.0. In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider buying additional software to improve memory and performance. We recommend: Cooking 3.0 and Hot Looks 7.7. Good Luck Madam! Tech Support __._,_.___ . __,_._,___ Love Cricket? Check out live scores, photos, video highlights and more.

Subject: Fw: cannibal IT developer joke--with no disrespect to managers - Five cannibals (Man eaters) get appointed as programmers in an IT company. During the welcoming ceremony the boss says: You're all part of our team now. You can earn good money here, and you can go to the company canteen for something to eat. So don't trouble the other employees. The cannibals promise not to trouble the other employees. Four weeks later the boss returns and says: You're all working very hard, and I'm very satisfied with all of you. One of our developers has disappeared however. Do any of you know what happened to her? The cannibals disown all knowledge of the missing developer. After the boss has left, the leader of the cannibals says to the others: Which of you idiots ate the developer? One of the cannibals raises his hand hesitantly, to which the leader of the cannibals says: You FOOL! For four weeks we've been eating team leaders, managers, and project managers and no-one has noticed anything, and now YOU ate one developer and it got noticed.

Most of the email ids in your list belong to Gmail whereas the email ids of Shri Ramanujam relate to Yahoo mail.

Keep Swine Flu away
The Basic Precautions to be taken to keep away from Swine Flu is reproduced from Yahoo India News for the benefit of the members S.V.SAIBABA Keep Swine Flu Away with Basic Precautions Swine flu in India is spreading like wildfire, taking the toll to six. Officials say there are currently more than 800 cases of the H1N1 flu strain in India. Governments from all around the world are finding ways to combat this deadly disease. So what can you do to protect yourself? Stay calm and practice these 10 effective prevention tips. 1. Wash your hands frequently Use the antibacterial soaps to cleanse your hands. Wash them often, at least 15 seconds and rinse with running water. 2. Get enough sleep Try to get 8 hours of good sleep every night to keep your immune system in top flu-fighting shape. 3. Keep hydrated Drink 8 to10 glasses of water each day to flush toxins from your system and maintain good moisture and mucous production in your sinuses. 4. Boost your immune system Keeping your body strong, nourished, and ready to fight infection is important in flu prevention. So stick with whole grains, colorful vegetables, and vitamin-rich fruits. 5. Keep informed The government is taking necessary steps to prevent the pandemic and periodically release guidelines to keep the pandemic away. Please make sure to keep up to date on the information and act in a calm manner. 6. Avoid alcohol Apart from being a mood depressant, alcohol is an immune suppressant that can actually decrease your resistance to viral infections like swine flu. So stay away from alcoholic drinks so that your immune system may be strong. 7. Be physically active Moderate exercise can support the immune system by increasing circulation and oxygenating the body. For example brisk walking for 30-40 minutes 3-4 times a week will significantly perk up your immunity. 8. Keep away from sick people Flu virus spreads when particles dispersed into the air through a cough or sneeze reach someone else’s nose. So if you have to be around someone who is sick, try to stay a few feet away from them and especially, avoid physical contact. 9. Know when to get help Consult your doctor if you have a cough and fever and follow their instructions, including taking medicine as prescribed. 10. Avoid crowded areas Try to avoid unnecessary trips outside. Moreover, avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs spread this way. Looking for local information? Find it on Yahoo!

Bhuvan
Good News from Yahoo News is given below for the benefit of the members: S.V.SAIBABA Bhuvan: ISRO's answer to Google Earth Fri, Aug 14 02:42 PM In what appears to be a challenge to Google Earth and Wikimapia, the Space Applications Centre (SAC) of ISRO has come up with 'Bhuvan', bringing India's name into the limelight yet again. Bhuvan, which literally means 'earth', is a web-based tool like Google Earth, but it promises better 3-D satellite imagery of India than what is currently being offered by other Virtual Globe software. Moreover, it brings you a host of India-specific features such as weather information and even administrative boundaries of all states and districts. Bhuvan is equally capable of offering images of the globe, but the best resolution area is India, at least for the time being. Bhuvan will be able to give you an image from only 10 meters away, an ISRO spokesman said; which means in the Indian subcontinent even a commuter moving on the road can be easily spotted. Bhuvan uses images taken at least a year ago by ISRO's seven remote-sensing satellites in orbit including Cartosat-1 and Cartosat-2. Unique features 1. Bhuvan allows users to access, explore and visualize 2D and 3D image data along with rich thematic information on soil, wasteland, water resources etc in the Indian subcontinent. 2. It displays multi-resolution, multi-sensor, multi-temporal image data. 3. Users can superpose administrative boundaries of choice on images as required. 4. It allows visualization of AWS (Automatic Weather Stations) data in a graphic view and use tabular weather data of user choice. 5. Fly to locations (Enables users to fly from the current location directly to the selected location) 6. It features a Heads-Up Display (HUD) navigation controls (Tilt slider, north indicator, opacity, compass ring, zoom slider) 7. Allows navigation using the 3D view Pop-up menu (Fly-in, Fly out, jump in, jump around, view point) 8. 3D Fly through (3D view to fly to locations, objects in the terrain, and navigate freely using the mouse or keyboard) 9. Drawing 2D objects (Text labels, polylines, polygons, rectangles, 2D arrows, circles, ellipse) 10. Drawing 3D Objects (placing of expressive 3D models, 3D polygons, boxes) 11. Snapshot creation (copies the 3D view to a floating window and allows saving to an external file) 12. Measurement tools (Horizontal distance, aerial distance, vertical distance, measure area) 13. Shadow Analysis (it sets the sun position based on the given time creating shadows and effects of the lighting on the terrain) 14. The Bhuvan portal is designed to run on slow Internet connections. Bhuvan's edge over Google Earth Google Earth Bhuvan Zoom levels up to 200 mt Zoom levels up to 10 mt Single layer information Multi-layer information Images upgraded every 4 years Images upgraded every year No alternate viewing options Options of viewing on different dates Uses international satellites Uses Indian satellites Thus, Bhuvan represents, in essence, the whole India on your computer. The next version of Bhuvan is expected to be called Bhuvan ChandraBhumi, which will feature both earth and moon in resolution up to 347 m maximum in near side and 432 m far side which is taken by Chandrayaan. The Bhuvan project demonstrates the country's expertise in both information and space technology. The Bhuvan can be downloaded from http://bhuvan.nrsc.gov.in/. Collated by Clint Thomas, Yahoo!

Fw: [forwards4all] History Mystery
History Mystery Have a history teacher explain this - if they can. Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846. John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946. Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860. John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960. Both were particularly concerned with civil rights. Both wives lost their children while living in the White House. Both Presidents were shot on a Friday. Both Presidents were shot in the head Now it gets really weird. Lincoln’s secretary was named Kennedy. Kennedy’s secretary was named Lincoln. Both were assassinated by Southerners. Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson. Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808. Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908. John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was born in 1839. Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939. Both assassins were known by their three names. Both names are composed of fifteen letters. Now hang on to your seat. Lincoln was shot at the theater named ‘Ford’. Kennedy was shot in a car called ‘Lincoln’ made by ‘Ford’. Lincoln was shot in a theater and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse. Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theater. Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials. And here’s the kicker... A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland. A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe. Creepy huh?

Fw: [forwards4all] The Wife And The Window
- The Wife And The Window A young couple moves into a new neighborhood. The next morning, while they are eating breakfast, the young woman sees her neighbor hang the wash outside. That laundry is not very clean, she said, she doesn’t know how to wash correctly. Perhaps she needs better laundry soap. Her husband looked on, but remained silent. Every time her neighbour would hang her wash to dry, the young woman would make the same comments. About one month later, the woman was surprised to see a nice clean wash on the line and said to her husband: “Look! She has learned how to wash correctly. I wonder who taught her this.” The husband said: “I got up early this morning and cleaned our windows!” And so it is with life: “What we see when watching others depends on the purity of the window through which we look. Before we give any criticism, it might be a good idea to check our state of mind and ask ourselves if we are ready to see the good rather than to be looking for something in the person we are about to judge.” . __,_._,___ Keep up with people you care about with Yahoo!

Fw: Family [Nice Story]
- Family [Nice Story] I ran into a stranger as he passed by, “Oh excuse me please,” was my reply. He said, “Please excuse me too; I wasn’t watching for you.” We were very polite, this stranger and I. We went on our way saying good-bye. But at home a difference is told, How we treat our loved ones, young and old. Later that day, cooking the evening meal, my son stood beside me very still. As I turned, I nearly knocked him down. “Move out of the way,” I said with a frown. He walked away, his little heart broken. I didn’t realize how harshly I’d spoken. While I lay awake in bed, God’s still small voice came to me and said, “While dealing with a stranger, common courtesy you use, but the children you love, you seem to abuse. Go and look on the kitchen floor, you’ll find some flowers there by the door. Those are the flowers he brought for you. He picked them himself: pink, yellow and blue. He stood very quietly not to spoil the surprise, and you never saw the tears that filled his little eyes.” By this time, I felt very small, and now my tears began to fall. I quietly went and knelt by his bed, “Wake up, little one, wake up,” I said. “Are these the flowers you picked for me?” He smiled, “I found ’em, out by the tree. I picked ’em because they’re pretty like you. I knew you’d like ’em, especially the blue.” I said, “Son, I’m very sorry for the way I acted today; I shouldn’t have yelled at you that way.” He said, “Oh, Mom, that’s okay. I love you anyway.” I said, “Son, I love you too, and I do like the flowers, especially the blue.” Are you aware that if we died tomorrow, the company that we are working for could easily replace us in a matter of days. But the family we left behind will feel the loss for the rest of their lives. And come to think of it,we pour ourselves more into work than to our own family - an unwise investment indeed, don’t you think? So what is behind the story? Do you know what the word FAMILY means? FAMILY = (F)ATHER (A)ND (M)OTHER, (I) (L)OVE (Y)OU! A young and successful executive was traveling down a neighborhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar. He was watching for kids darting out from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something. As his car passed, no children appeared. Instead, a brick smashed into the Jag’s side door! He slammed on the brakes and spun the Jag back to the spot from where the brick had been thrown. He jumped out of the car, grabbed some kid and pushed him up against a parked car shouting, “What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing?!” Building up a head of steam he went on. That’s a new car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it?” “Please, mister, please. I’m sorry, I didn’t know what else to do,” pleaded the youngster. “I threw the brick because no one else would stop...” Tears were dripping down the boy’s chin as he pointed around the parked car. “It’s my brother,” he said. “He rolled off the curb and fell out of his wheelchair and I can’t lift him up.” Sobbing, the boy asked the executive, “Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He’s hurt and he’s too heavy for me.” Moved beyond words, the driver tried to swallow the rapidly swelling lump in his throat. He lifted the young man back into the wheelchair and took out his handkerchief and wiped the scrapes and cuts, checking to see that everything was going to be okay. “Thank you and may God bless you,” the grateful child said to him. The man then watched the little boy push his brother down the sidewalk toward their home. It was a long walk back to his jaguara long, slow walk. He never did repair the side door. He kept the dent to remind him not to go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention. Lessons from the Mail: “God whispers in your soul and speaks to your heart. Sometimes when you don’t have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at you. It’s your choice: Listen to the whisper - or wait for the brick.” . __,_._,___ Try the new Yahoo! India Homepage. Click here. http://in.yahoo.com/trynew

Re: Lesson from Life of EAGLE
Dear Subbu Sir This mail on Lesson from Life of Eagle is a Hoax mail in circulation since 2007. The comments in Hoax-slayer.com is given below S.V.SAIBABA http://www.hoax-slayer.com/rebirth-of-the-eagle-hoax.shtml COMMENTARY: The information in the message is false. Eagles do not undergo the process of rebirth described in the slide show. In fact, the story is simply an allegory about change and does not reflect the real life style of eagles. Presumably, the creator of the slide show invented the eagle rebirth story as a means of illustrating his or her concepts regarding the role of change in our lives. Unfortunately, the author has presented the rebirth story as if it was factual and therefore many recipients tend to take it literally. Of course a closer review soon reveals the absurdity of the tale. The story does not explain how the eagle could possibly survive without food or water for the five months of its transformation. Moreover, an eagle's talons and beak continue to grow throughout its life and therefore do not grow old and unusable as claimed in the story. And its feathers are also continually replaced. The American Bald Eagle Information website notes: For those of you who have e-mailed me wondering if it's true that an eagle goes into seclusion, plucks all of its feathers, sheds its beak and talons, and then renews itself, is a myth. An eagle's beak and talons grow continuously, because they are made of keratin, the same substance as our hair and fingernails. Eagles molt in patches, taking almost half a year to replace feathers, starting with the head and working downward. Not all feathers are replaced in a given molt. An eagle without feathers, talons, and a beak would die of starvation and exposure.Bald eagles typically live between twenty and thirty years in the wild. The lifespan of other species of eagles may vary, although none are known to reach seventy years in the wild. Although scientists have studied eagles of various species for generations and much has been published about them, no credible sources back up the eagle rebirth story in any way. There are, however, plenty of reliable sources that dismiss the story as a foolish hoax. Rebirth stories, such as that of the mythical phoenix rising from the ashes of its funeral pyre, have been part of human cultures for thousands of years. The philosophical message behind the story - that we often need to undergo a painful and prolonged process of change in our lives in order to spiritually grow and move forward - is certainly worth heeding. However the nonsensical story used as a vehicle for the message all but destroys its credibility. And there are other anomalies in the presentation. In some slides, the eagle shown in the photographs is a Bald Eagle, but in others a different species, the Golden Eagle, is shown. The story also sprouts the scientifically meaningless claim that the eagle has the longest life-span of its species. The author perhaps meant to say that eagles live longer than all other kinds of birds, but this is also incorrect. Parrots and other species of birds are known to live longer than eagles.

Police can now track your e-mails
E mails not private anymore. Read the news given below: S.V.SAI BABA Mon, Nov 23 02:45 PM Police can now track your e-mails Mumbai, Nov. 22 -- The police can now read your e-mails without prior permission from the home department. The Parliament recently cleared an amendment to the Information Technology (IT) Act, allowing the police to intercept or decrypt online information without seeking the home department's nod. Rising instances of cyber crime have prompted the move aimed at cutting red tape. The amendment empowers the inspector general of police to permit interception or decoding information in cyber space in an emergency. This will help speedy detection of cyber crimes like phishing or sending offensive messages and in tracking terrorists who operate using the Internet. Advocate I.P. Bagaria said the amendment was necessary. Every citizen has a right to privacy. However, this cannot be at the cost of the state or country, he said. The secretary in-charge of the state home department should be informed about the interception within three days of tracking. The secretary - the final sanctioning authority - has to grant permission within seven days. Once the sanction has been obtained, it has to be placed before the Review Committee within two months. Senior advocate Amit Desai said this period should be reduced. Otherwise there are chances of misuse of these powers. The police had to earlier take permission from the additional chief secretary, home or, in an emergency, the joint secretary. Liberalisation of interception is required when the world is dealing with terrorism, said senior police officer-turned-lawyer Y.P. Singh. Cyber expert Vijay Mukhi said there should be a mechanism to check misuse. The INTERNET now has a personality. YOURS! See your Yahoo! Homepage. http://in.yahoo.com/

Re: Approver turns hostile in Sankararaman murder case
Interesting to read similar case of U turn on the same day. S V SAI BABA Kasab's U-turn again, retracts guilt plea Fri, Jan 22 07:38 PM Mumbai, Jan 22 (PTI) Six months after he surprised the 26/11 court by confessing to his role in the Mumbai carnage, Pakistani gunman Ajmal Kasab today said his guilt plea last July was made under duress from police. It is not for the first time that Kasab has made a U-turn. He had earlier disowned his confession made before a magistrate about the 26/11 terror conspiracy and his role in the dastardly strikes. Three days back, Kasab had claimed that four terrorists who had struck at Taj hotel were Indians. Today, Kasab retracted his guilt plea made on July 20 last in which he had talked about attending an LeT camp in Pakistan, arriving in Mumbai from Karachi by sea route, firing at people at Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus and Cama Hospital and fighting a gun battle with policemen at Girgaum Chowpatty. Yes I had said all this earlier in the court but it was under police pressure, Kasab said in reply to questions put by judge M L Tahaliyani on evidence adduced by prosecution against him. As soon as the judge began asking him questions on the guilt plea made by him, Kasab complained that his advocate K P Pawar was not helping him. However, the judge rebuked him saying he had asked him to talk to his lawyer yesterday but he did respond.

During examination by Special Public Prosecutor N. Devadass, Subramanian informed the court that he became an approver under external pressure. He was coerced by the police to turn an approver and give statement favouring the investigation. Contradicting all the statements made before the lower court and the police about identifying the accused, his connections with a few accused persons and his visits to the Mutt to plan the murder, Subramanian said he neither knew the accused persons nor about the murder plan. He also informed the court that the police did not seize any documents from his custody. Contradictory statements Following his contradictory statements, the SPP informed Principal District and Sessions Judge D. Krishnaraja that he was treating him as a hostile witness. Subsequently, Subramanian was cross-examined by defence counsel K.S Dinakaran and Prakash. Subramanian deposed that before he was produced in the Kancheepuram Court on December 27, 2004, he was in illegal custody for around 15 days and was harassed by then Superintendent of Police Premkumar and Additional Superintendent of Police Sakthivel. Maintaining that the harassment caused physical and mental agony, he said his wife and children were also in police custody and harassed. Stating the truth Since his wife and children were in the police custody, he, out of fear, gave a statement dictated by the police before the court, Subramanian said, adding that he was now stating the truth because the officers who arrested him were not in service. Subramanian who was first treated as an accused in the case during preliminary investigation by the police later became an approver. He was then treated as witness in the case. cnu.pne The INTERNET now has a personality. YOURS! See your Yahoo! Homepage. http://in.yahoo.com/

I can do this because I am educated enough to comment on this and for those who don't know my profession ..I am serving as Brand Manager (Product Manager) handling anti HIV/AIDS portfolio (called as Antiretroviral Drugs) in Ranbaxy. Please read following points carefully don't send such emails related to medical ailments without having complete knowledge about it (even partial knowledge could be grossly dangerous). HIV (virus) requires *ONLY* *Blood or Semen* as medium to transmit from one body to another HIV *can not* transmit even through *Saliva* (mucous) i.e. even if HIV-infected patient coughs and another person is exposed to his sputum (cough), the virus still can not transmit because concentration of virus particles in sputum is almost NIL exposure to air anyway kills virus in fraction of seconds. In case HIV-infected person got an injury (like the cut in below mentioned story) and he is bleeding, the virus can transmit to another person only if another person has a cut/wound in his body that too when *blood From both person comes in contact with each other* (this is also very very Rare unless bleeding is very high) and not otherwise HIV can *never survive in any other liquid* medium also other than blood or semen ( please for God sake ... never in Pani Puri wala's pani) Even if one drinks an HIV infected blood (or semen) of someone (ingest through Gastro Intestinal track), the virus *can not survive in the acidic pH of stomach*. Highest extent of acidity is 0 (practically not possible) so imagine 1 as pH which is in our stomach. (This pH can bun Your own finger in less than a second if you dip in that acid). Exposure of less than 1 second in AIR KILLS the HIV virus* (story of needle pricks in Cinema theatres goes down the drain). Even if blood from a wound (of infected person) dries up (*blood clot*), *the virus dies* and can not infect anyone else HIV transmission is *ONLY* an *INFECTION* i.e. entrance of virus in one's body. It *DOES NOT MEAN AIDS*. An HIV-infected person (after entrance of virus) can progress to condition of AIDS only after *8 to 10 YEARS *(not in 15 days as in the mentioned story) It is *not HIV (virus) that kills a human* . the virus attacks immune cells (cells that fight against foreign pathogens/antigens) and hence a person's ability to fight against infections diseases slowly diminishes and person ultimately dies of a disease which could be as Simple as TB. Most importantly, HIV is no longer dreadful disease ... it is *CHRONIC MANAGEABLE DISEASE* just like Diabetes or Hypertension. If there is anything you need to be careful from to prevent HIV is *UnsafeSex*, *Blood transfusion* (check before taking) / Blood donation (us sterilized needles only) and any *blood contact during an accident *or so where amount of bleeding is very high SUCH AN INFORMATION IS STRICTLY FOR THE USE OF HUMANITY... SO GO ON...DO THE GOOD WORK...PASS IT ON TO OTHERS...

The DiseaseControl Center (in Paris) reports many similar events in many other citiesrecently. All tested needles were HI V Positive. The Center also reports that needles have been found in cash dispensers at public banking machines. We ask everyone to use extreme caution when faced with this kind of situation.

Hoax mail
Dear Sir This is a Hoax mail in circulation since 2006 and the contents are reported to be false. Pl visit:http://www.hoax-slayer.com/life-is-beautiful-virus-hoax.html The contents given in the site are reproduced below: SVSAIBABA Life is Beautiful Virus HoaxSummary: Warning message claims that an email with an attached Power Point presentation called Life is beautiful is a virus that will destroy all files on the infected computer (Full commentary below.) Status: False Example: (Submitted, November 2006) VERY IMPORTANT WARNING Please Be Extremely Careful especially if using internet mail such as Yahoo, Hotmail, AOL and so on. This information arrived this morning direct from both Microsoft and Norton. Please send it to everybody you know who has access to the Internet. You may receive an apparently harmless email with a Power Point presentation Life is beautiful. If you receive it DO NOT OPEN THE FILE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, and delete it immediately. If you open this file, a message will appear on your screen saying: It is too late now, your life is no longer beautiful. Subsequently you will LOSE EVERYTHING IN YOUR PC and the person who sent it to you will gain access to your name, e-mail and password. This is a new virus which started to circulate on Saturday afternoon. AOL has already confirmed the severity, and the antivirus software's are not capable of destroying it. The virus has been created by a hacker who calls himself life owner. PLEASE SEND A COPY OF THIS EMAIL TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS and ask them to PASS IT ON IMMEDIATELY. Commentary: This warning claims that a very destructive virus disguised as a Power Point Presentation called Life is beautiful is currently being distributed via email. However, there is not, nor has there ever been a virus like the one described in this message. There are several variants of the hoax, including versions in Chinese, French, Spanish, Italian and several other languages. The message tries to add authority to its claims by mentioning high-profile companies such as Microsoft and AOL. Incidentally, Microsoft does not send out unsolicited virus warnings. Moreover, Norton is the name given to a range of security software products sold by Symantec Corp. Thus, information about virus threats is published by Symantec, not Norton. In this case, Symantec has published information about the Life is beautiful message - but only to denounce it as a hoax. This hoax started circulating in early 2002 and it has been passed around ever since. In spite of a great deal of online exposure, the hoax tends to resurge from time to time and its rate of circulation increases dramatically for a few months. As hoax emails go, this is one of the most successful. Perhaps because of the apparent destructiveness of the virus and the urgent tone of the warning, people are apt to forward the message without much forethought. Like many other hoaxes, it capitalizes on the recipient's desire to help other Internet users by warning them of a perceived threat. Before forwarding a virus warning email, it is always a good idea to check that the information in the message is valid. Virus hoaxes are quite common, and like this one, they tend to circulate for years after they are first launched. In other cases, virus warnings that may have been originally true circulate long after the described virus has ceased to be a significant threat. Virus hoaxes and outdated warnings are no help to anybody. All they do is waste time, cause confusion and needlessly clutter inboxes. Such problems mean that forwarding warning emails may not be the best way to help battle viruses and other computer security threats. If you receive this email hoax, please help to stop its continued circulation by letting the sender know that it is a hoax and should not be forwarded. Older versions of the hoax: This information arrived this morning, from Microsoft and Norton. Please send it to everybody you know who accesses the Internet. You may receive an apparently harmless email with a PowerPoint presentation called Life is beautiful.pps. If you receive it DO NOT OPEN THE FILE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, and delete it immediately. If you open this file, a message will appear on your screen saying: It is too late now, your life is no longer beautiful, subsequently you will LOSE EVERYTHING IN YOUR PC and the person who sent it to you will gain access to your name, email and password. This is a new virus which started to circulate on Saturday afternoon. WE NEED TO DO EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO STOP THIS VIRUS. UOL has already confirmed its dangerousness, and the antivirus Softs are not capable of destroying it. The virus has been created by a hacker who calls himself life owner, and who aims to destroying domestic PCs and who also fights Microsoft in court! That's why it comes disguised with extension pps. He fights in court for the Windows- XP patent. MAKE A

Fw: Fwd: Talmudic wisdom
Subject: Talmudic wisdom A Priest meets his friend, the Rabbi, and says to him, You have taught me many things but there is one thing in particular I want to learn very much but you do not wish to teach it to me. I want you to teach me the Talmud. The Rabbi replied: You are a Non-Jew and you have the brain of a Non-Jew. There is no chance that you will succeed in understanding the Talmud. But the Priest continued in his attempt to persuade the Rabbi to teach him the Talmud. Finally, the Rabbi agreed. The Rabbi then said to the Priest: I agree to teach you the Talmud on condition that you answer one question. The Priest agreed and asked the Rabbi, What is the question? The Rabbi then said to the Priest: Two men fall down through the chimney; one comes out dirty and the other comes out clean. Who of those two goes to wash up? Very simple, replied the Priest. The one who is dirty goes to wash up but the one who is clean does not go to wash up. The Rabbi then said to the Priest: I told you that you will not succeed in understanding the Talmud. The exact opposite happened. The clean one looks at the dirty one and thinks that he is also dirty, goes to wash up. The dirty one, on the other hand, looks at the clean one and thinks that he is also clean and, therefore, does not go to wash up. The Priest then says to the Rabbi: This I did not think of. Ask me, please, another question. The Rabbi then said to the Priest: Two men fall down through the chimney; one comes out dirty and the other comes out clean. Who of those two goes to wash up? The Priest then says to the Rabbi: Very simple. The clean one looks at the dirty one and thinks he is also dirty and goes to wash up. The dirty one on the other hand, looks at the clean one and thinks that he is also clean and, therefore, does not go to wash up. The Rabbi then says to the Priest: You are wrong again. I told you that you will not understand. The clean one looks into the mirror, sees that he is clean and, therefore, does not go to wash up. The dirty one looks into the mirror, sees that he is dirty and goes to wash up. The Priest complains to the Rabbi, But you did not tell me that there is a mirror there. The Rabbi then tells the Priest: I told you. You are a Non-Jew; with your brain you will not succeed in understanding the Talmud. According to the Talmud, you have to think of all the possibilities. All right, groaning, said the Priest to the Rabbi. Let us try once more. Ask me one more question. For the last time, the Rabbi then said to the Priest: Two men fall down through the chimney; one comes out dirty and the other comes out clean. Who of those two goes to wash up? That is very simple! replied the Priest. If there is no mirror there the clean one will look at the dirty one and will think that he is also dirty and will, therefore, go to wash up. The dirty one will look at the clean one and will think that he is also clean, and will, therefore, not go to wash up. If there is a mirror there, the clean one will look into the mirror and will, therefore, not go to wash up. The dirty one will look into the mirror and will see that he is dirty and will, therefore, go to wash up. The Rabbi then says to the Priest: I told you that you would not succeed in understanding. You are a Non-Jew; you have a Non-Jew brain. Tell me, how is it possible for two men to fall through a chimney and for one to come out dirty and the other to come out clean?

Re: stop cough in 5 minutes
One of the emails in circulation for a very long time but the contents of the mail is commented as not scientifically proved. S.V.SAI BABA Please refer:http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/v/vicks-vaporub.htm Canadian Research Group Says Vicks VapoRub on the Bottom of Feet at Bedtime Stops Coughing-Fiction! Summary of the eRumor: The email says that the Canada Research Council doesn't know why but has found that using Vicks VapoRub on the bottom of the feet at bedtime will stop nighttime coughing. It says that even persistent, heavy, deep coughing will stop in about 5 minutes and that relief will last for hours. This was discovered as part of a research project about the effectiveness of prescription cough medicines compared with alternative therapies in children. The Truth: There is no Canada Research Council but the National Research Council of Canada did issue a statement about this eRumor. The Council said that it had never conducted any such research about Vicks VapoRub and that it does not, as the eRumor suggested, do research on alternative applications of medicines. It is popularly believed that rubbing Vicks VapoRub on the feet can help coughing. We're not aware of any official research that found that it works. The Vicks company has never made such a claim although Vicks VapoRub and its formula of camphor, eucalyptus oil, and menthol is formulated to deal with coughs. The company recommends rubbing it on the chest or throat for relieving coughing during a cold or on muscles and joints for relieving minor pain. The eRumor, however, appears to have been fabricated by someone who believed in the efficacy of rubbing the product on the feet and who wanted to be able to cite official research supporting it. Updated 7/10/07 Please also refer:http://urbanlegends.about.com/od/medical/a/vicks_for_cough.htm Forwarded email claims that coughing in children can be stopped '100% of the time' by applying Vicks Vaporub to the bottoms of their feet and covering them with socks at bedtime Description: Folk medicine Circulating since: March 2007 (email version) Status: Claims are anecdotal, scientifically unproven From: S Chander sajb1...@gmail.com To: thatha_patty thatha_pa...@yahoogroups.com; thatha patty thatha_patty@googlegroups.com Sent: Mon, 22 March, 2010 8:14:59 PM Subject: stop cough in 5 minutes From another group No harm trying it How to stop cough in 5 minutes!!! This is a must try We have all been kept awake by our own or someone else's cough. Try this and pass it on. The tip and not the cough. ANYTHING is better than antibiotics. Even babies could benefit from this and the parents wouldn't worry about the safety of their child. And of course, it is harmless and free from any type of side-effects. WOW! I was raised, and raised my kids with Vicks. How come I never knew this? I can't wait for my next cough. Amazing! Treatment: To stop night time coughing in a child (or an adult, as we found out personally), put Vicks Vapor Rub generously on the bottom of the feet at bedtime and then cover with socks. Even persistent, heavy, deep coughing will stop in about five minutes and stay stopped for many, many hours of relief. This works 100 percent of the time, and is more effective in children than even very strong prescription cough medicines. In addition it is extremely soothing and comforting and they will sleep soundly. I heard the head of the Canada Research Council describe these findings on the part of their scientists when they were investigating the effectiveness and usage of prescription cough medicines in children, as compared to alternative therapies like acupressure. I just happened to tune in to a.m. Radio and picked up this guy talking about why cough medicines in kids often do more harm than good due to the chemical makeup of these strong drugs, so I listened. It was a surprising finding and found to be more effective than prescribed medicines for children at bedtime, and in addition to have a soothing and calming effect on sick children who then went on to sleep soundly. My friend tried it on herself when she had a very deep constant and persistent cough a few weeks ago, and it worked 100 percent! She said it felt like a warm blanket had enveloped her. The coughing stopped in a few minutes, and believe me this was a deep (incredibly annoying!) every few seconds, uncontrollable cough and she slept cough-free for hours every night she used it. If you have children or grandchildren, pass it on. If you end up sick, try it yourself and you will be absolutely amazed. How to stop cough in 5 minutes!!! This is a must try...

Always take a small magnet on your holiday, they come in handy at the end of it. Thought you all needed to know this This is pretty good info. Never even thought about key cards containing anything other than an access code for the room! HOTEL KEY CARDS Ever wonder what is on your magnetic key card? Answer: a. Customer's name B. Customer's partial home address c. Hotel room number d. Check-in date and out dates e. Customer's credit card number and expiration date! When you turn them in to the front desk your personal information is there for any employee to access by simply scanning the card in the hotel scanner.. An employee can take a hand full of cards home and using a scanning device, access the information onto a laptop computer and go shopping at your expense. Simply put, hotels do not erase the information on these cards until an employee reissues the card to the next hotel guest. At that time, the new guest's information is electronically 'overwritten' on the card and the previous guest's information is erased in the overwriting process. But until the card is rewritten for the next guest, it usually is kept in a drawer at the front desk with YOUR INFORMATION ON IT! The bottom line is: Keep the cards, take them home with you, or destroy them. NEVER leave them behind in the room or room wastebasket, and NEVER turn them into the front desk when you check out of a room. They will not charge you for the card (it's illegal) and you'll be sure you are not leaving a lot of valuable personal information on it that could be easily lifted off with any simple scanning device card reader. For the same reason, if you arrive at the airport and discover you still have the card key in your pocket, do not toss it in an airport trash basket. Take it home and destroy it by cutting it up, especially through the electronic information strip! If you have a small magnet, pass it across the magnetic strip several times..

A new threat to our Earth
Reproduced from Yahoo News: Will the Earth blackout in 2013? By Piyali Dasgupta – June 9th, 2010 Email Facebook Twitter Print If you’ve had your fill of apocalyptic scenarios, earthquakes, volcanoes and global warming, here comes a new threat which may wipe out the world in 2013. Imagine a scene from any of Hollywood’s disaster films. An eerie scene where mobile phones go on the blink, GPS is knocked out, TVs go blank and the world is plunged into chaos. Looks like disaster flicks aren’t too removed from reality since all this could well be the potential result of a gigantic solar storm, according to a new report by NASA. The report, a warning, says Earth and space are coming together in a way that’s new to human history. A solar storm, which is essentially violent eruptions in the sun, can eject destructive radiation and charged particles into space. These are closely connected to magnetic fields – which are hazardous for satellites and space stations. There are reports of a geomagnetic storm sparked by a huge solar flare that swept over the Earth in 1859. Telegraph wires shorted out and set houses on fire. A brilliant aurora was seen in Hawaii—so bright that “people could read newspapers by [its] red and green glow.” Scientists predict that in May 2013, the sun’s solar cycle will peak at about the same level as in 1859. (This content courtesy a post onGawker.com) High-tech systems are critical for life as we know it today. Everything that we depend on and take for granted – air travel, GPS navigation, banking services (even a credit card transaction uses a satellite) and emergency radio communications – can all be knocked out by intense solar activity. To get an idea of scale, a massive solar storm could result in 20 times more damage than the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina which hit south-eastern US in August 2005. The storm killed 1,800 people and caused damages worth $81 billion. Some good news is that some of the damage and destruction can be avoided with warning of an impending solar storm. There is technology to put satellites in ‘safe mode’ and disconnect transformers to protect them from destructive electrical surges. The task of accurately forecasting a solar storm lies with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) of the US. “Space weather forecasting is still in its infancy, but we’re making rapid progress,” said Thomas Bogdan, director of NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center in Colorado. The key for Bogdan lies in NASA and NOAA collaborating. “NASA’s fleet of heliophysics research spacecraft provides us with up-to-the-minute information about what’s happening on the sun. They are an important complement to our own GOES and POES satellites, which focus more on the near-Earth environment.” Says Bogdon, “I believe we’re on the threshold of a new era in which space weather can be as influential in our daily lives as ordinary terrestrial weather.” So far, we’ve been lucky to escape any big solar storms. I guess we could send Bruce Willis (a la Armageddon) to save us from the Sun in true Hollywood style. But then I would rather wait for NASA and NOAA to save us from space weather.

MODERN VERSION The Ant works hard in the withering heat all summer building its house and laying up supplies for the winter. The Grasshopper thinks the Ant 's a fool and laughs dances plays the summer away. Come winter, the shivering Grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the Ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while others are cold and starving. NDTV , TV9, CNN show up to provide pictures of the shivering Grasshopper next to a video of the Ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food. The World is stunned by the sharp contrast.. How can this be that this poor Grasshopper is allowed to suffer so? Arundhati Roy stages a demonstration in front of the Ant ' s house .. Medha Patkar and Tan Shyamoli goes on a fast along with other Grasshoppers demanding that Grasshoppers be relocated to warmer climates during winter. Amnesty Internationalcriticizes the Indian Government for not upholding the fundamental rights of the Grasshopper. The Internet is flooded with online petitions seeking support to the Grasshopper (many promising Heaven and Everlasting Peace for prompt support as against the wrath of God for non-compliance) . Opposition MPs stage a walkout. Left parties call for Bharat Bandh in West Bengal and Kerala demanding a Judicial Enquiry. CPM in Kerala immediately passes a law preventing Ants from working hard in the heat so as to bring about equality of poverty among Ants and Grasshoppers... Lalu Prasad allocates one free coach to Grasshoppers on all Indian Railway Trains aptly named as the 'Grasshopper Rath'. Finally, the Judicial Committee drafts the ' Prevention of Terrorism Against Grasshoppers Act ' [POTAGA], with effect from the beginning of the winter. Arjun Singh makes ' Special Reservation ' for Grasshoppers in Educational Institutions in Government Services. The Ant; fined for failing to comply with POTAGA and having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes; its home is confiscated by the Government and handed over to the Grasshopper in a ceremony covered by NDTV. Arundhati Roy calls it ' A Triumph of Justice ' . Lalu calls it ' Socialistic Justice ' . CPM calls it the ' Revolutionary Resurgence of the Downtrodden ' UN Secretary General invites the Grasshopper to address the UN General Assembly . MANY YEARS LATER The Ant has since migrated to the US and set up a multi-billion dollar company in Silicon Valley . 100s of Grasshoppers still die of starvation despite reservation somewhere in India . because of loosing lot of hard working Ants and feeding the Grasshoppers, India is still a developing country!!! --
New symbol for Indian Rupee
Cabinet to clear design for rupee symbol today Thu, Jun 24 04:23 AM The Indian rupee is likely to get its own unique symbol on Thursday, with the Union Cabinet set to approve the final design. With this, the rupee will join the elite league of global currencies like US dollar ($), British pound sterling, euro and Japanese yen, which have their unique symbols. In pictures: Rupee's New Avatar The shortlisted design apparently plays on the Hindi letter 'R' with a double-slash. The FE designers have conceptualised the design here. The government has already shortlisted five entries after a pan-India open contest which was advertised by the finance ministry in February 2009. According to the terms of this contest, the winning design will become the property of the government of India and the winner will have to surrender the design copyright to in lieu of Rs 2.5 lakh. According to design experts, formulating a unique currency symbol is extremely difficult, made tougher by the requirement that it must be adaptable to computer keyboards. The design will also have to be incorporated in currency notes, which would mean asking printers abroad where the currency is printed to make large-scale investments. Russia too wanted a unique symbol for its currency in the 1990s. It is still looking for a symbol to represent the rouble. Designing new symbols involves rigorous testing as the symbol would be used across all technical applications apart from widespread usage on the Web, mobile phones and banners, a designer at a leading ad agency told FE. The government decided to have a unique symbol for the Indian rupee as its abbreviated form (Rs) is also represented by the currencies of Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. Last year, the finance minister Pranab Mukherjee had made this announcement in his budget speech. In the ensuing year, we intend to formalise a symbol for the Indian rupee, which reflects and captures the Indian ethos and culture, Mukherjee had said then.
The Five Step Approach to Managing Anger
Today I read this useful article and want to share with the members: S V SAIBABA The Five Step Approach to Managing Anger If something happens that makes you feel angry (like not being allowed to go to a party until you clean your room), this approach can help you manage your reaction. It is called a problem-solving approach because you start with the problem you are mad about. Then you weigh your choices and decide what you will do. Each step involves asking yourself a couple of questions, then answering them based on your particular situation. Let us take the example from the start of this article: Your mom has just told you to clean your room or stay home. You really want to go to that party. The red-hot anger starts building. Here is what to do: 1) Tune in to your feelings (self-awareness). Start by noticing what you are angry about and why. Put into words what is making you upset so you can act rather than react. Ask yourself: What is got me angry? What am I feeling and why? You can do this either in your mind or out loud, but it needs to be clear and specific. For example: I am really angry at Mom because she wont let me go to the party until I clean my room. It is not fair! Your feeling is anger, and you are feeling angry because you might not get to go to the party. Notice that this is not the same as saying, Mom is so unfair to me. That statement does not identify the specific problem (that you can not go to the party until you clean your room) and it does not say how you are feeling (angry). 2) Stop and think (self-control). This is where you stop for a minute to give yourself time to manage your anger. It is also where you start thinking of how you might react - but without reacting yet. Ask yourself: What can I do? Think of at least three things. For example, in this situation you might think: (a) I could yell at Mom and throw a fit. (b) I could clean my room and then ask if I could go to the party. (c) I could sneak out to the party anyway. 3)Consider your options (think it through). This is where you think about what is likely to result from each of the different reactions you came up with. Ask yourself: What will happen for each one of these options? For example: (a) Yelling at your mom may get you in worse trouble or even grounded. (b) Cleaning your room takes work and you may get to the party late (but hey, arriving late may add to your mystique). With this option, you get to go to the party and your room is clean so you don not have to worry about it for a while. (c) Sneaking out may seem like a real option in the heat of anger. But when you really think it through, it is pretty unlikely you would get away with being gone for hours with no one noticing. And when you do get caught - look out! 4) Make a decision (pick one of your options). This is where you take action by choosing one of the three things you could do. Look at the list and pick the one that is likely to be most effective. Ask yourself: What is my best choice? By the time you have thought it through, you are probably past yelling at your mom, which is a knee-jerk response. You may have also decided that sneaking out is too risky. Neither of these options is likely to get you to the party. So option (b) probably seems like the best choice. Once you choose your solution, then it is time to act. 5) Check your progress. After you have acted and the situation is over, spend some time thinking about how it went. Ask yourself: How did I do? Did things work out as I expected? If not, why not? Am I satisfied with the choice I made? Taking some time to reflect on how things worked out after it is all over is a very important step. It helps you learn about yourself and it allows you to test which problem-solving approaches work best in different situations. Give yourself a pat on the back if the solution you chose worked out well. If it did not, go back through the five steps and see if you can figure out why. These five steps are pretty simple when you are calm, but are much tougher to work through when you are angry or sad (kind of like in basketball practice when making baskets is much easier than in a real game when the pressure is on!). So it helps to practice over and over again. About The Author:Alim has been writing articles online for nearly 3 years.

Getting rid of stress,How to relieve stress
Another useful article, I want to share: SVSAIBABA Getting rid of stress,How to relieve stress; Stress are some things that many individuals suffer with and they live day by day with getting head aches, experiencing fatigued and several other health problems. At first, these health conditions may appear small but if the stress is not handled they can get really big and really serious. It really is super easy to lessen stress but in order to do the person must want to change. The way to overcome stress is so simple but yet hard for those who endure it everyday. To start with inhale deep, and then out. Do this more than once until you start feeling calm. once you start to feel better look around you and begin to appreciate life. Be fortunate for the day no matter the number of bad things have happened to you. Spread a few words of encouragement around. Convey to someone that you are pleased that they're working for you and give thanks to them for assisting you out. The law of attraction will start to come about when you start becoming grateful for little things such as a friendly relationship and the job you have. Ever thought about why somebody else might be better off or sometimes got promoted ahead of you? Part of it might be because of the negative atmosphere you have happening around you and to ensure those atmosphere to come off we have got to observe life in an alternative way. Once you are tired of having problems and being stomped on you'll hopefully learn to recognize that it is just not worth it in life so you will support other people and brighten their day. You would be surprised about how stress might not only effect you just how much it can effect the other individuals around you. When you are trying to watch a game on tv and someone comes in angry and starts to make a complaint about their day it takes away your amusement of the game and may perhaps even change your mood. If you are working and you are always stressed, or if you are trying to lose weight and stressed out about that instead of making other people near you despondent or aggravated on you perform some relaxation meditations and point out some affirmations outloud. Seek to change your mood as soon as you feel the stress come on. One example is I am slimming down and my boss is happy with my work. At the time you begin to voice one of those never state it as the future tense but constantly in the now tense: IE: I am, not I will be. Yet another way that one could overcome anxiousness is just simply going out for a stroll or doing a bit of exercising. The change of scenery and getting the bloodstream moving helps out. The good thing is you really don't even have to do a 30 minute stroll or a one hour work out. All that you'll need to do is just a 10 or 15 minute walk and you'll feel much better. If you can't walk but possibly have some stairs going up and down those for a couple of minutes works just the same. If you think that the stress that you experienced is so unmanageable and there is no way you could correct it or if you might be struggling with major depression talking with your doctor or therapist may well be the greatest alternative as they can provide you with either medication or some guidelines to get over it
For the information of Mediclaim policy holders
From Yahoo News: IRDA to probe insurers axing cashless mediclaim Mon, Jul 12 03:08 PM The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority of India (IRDA) on Sunday said it has decided to examine the issue of insurance companies withdrawing the cashless facility for hospitalisation of patients to mediclaim policy holders. IRDA chairman Hari Narayan told Mail Today that 'appropriate action' would be taken in the matter after discussing the issue with the concerned stakeholders. Let us examine the issue. We are gathering the background information from the insurers. We would then take appropriate action, J Hari Narayan told Mail Today on phone from IRDA's headquarters at Hyderabad. Asked whether there had been a breach of trust between the mediclaim policy holders and the insurers, he replied, Let me first get into the issue. It would be too early to make any statement. The issue is being examined by us. The move by insurance companies to withdraw the facility of cashless hospitalisation has left the middle-class in a lurch. At least 18 insurance companies, including public sector entities, have withdrawn the cashless mediclaim policy facility and stopped direct payment of treatment charges to high-end hospitals in Delhi, NCR and at other metros like Mumbai, Bangalore, Kolkata and Chennai from July 1. The policy holders are fuming. They feel cheated. It's a breach of trust. I availed the mediclaim policy for a year and paid Rs 30,000 for my family members where they offered me cashless hospitalisation. How can they write-off the agreed contract, says Rajesh Kumar, a resident of North Delhi. At least 100 hospitals in Delhi and NCR, besides other metros, have been taken off the designated list of hospitals eligible to extend the cashless facility of treatment. These hospitals include high-end ones like Max or Medicity, Apollo, Fortis, Ganga Ram and other big hospital chains in Delhi and NCR. Mediclaim policy holders who want to avail the facilities at these hospitals, will now have to pay. They can then claim the amount from the insurer with no guarantee that the entire amount would be reimbursed. Taking serious note of the issue Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit on Sunday said the state government would take every possible step to ensure that people are not held to ransom in the fight between hospitals and insurance firms. She promised to look into the issue. We will hold talks within a week and try to find a solution to the problem, she said. Terming it as a serious issue, Delhi health minister Kiran Walia said, We are really concerned as we know the impact. We cannot allow somebody to hold the patients to ransom in the fight (between insurers and hospitals), said the health minister. Industry bodies too have reacted sharply to the development. The chairman of the Federation of Indian Chambers for Commerce and Industry (Ficci) health services committee, Anjan Bose, termed it a retrograde move. This will put the policy holders, particularly the middle class patients, who do not have ready cash available with them at a disadvantage. Such a step will have adverse impact on the penetration of the health insurance market in India, Bose said. Insurance companies have been providing cashless services at over 3,000 hospitals across the country. Dr KK Aggarwal, president of the Heart Care Foundation of India, said the cap on charges for particular treatment by insurance agencies is a right move. But why should the policy holders suffer, he said

WIFE VS. HUSBAND A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word. An earlier discussion had led to an argument andneither of them wanted to concede their position. As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats, and pigs, the husband asked sarcastically, 'Relatives of yours?' 'Yep,' the wife replied, 'in-laws.' W O R D S A husband read an article to his wife about how many words women use a day... 30,000 to a man's 15,000. The wife replied, 'The reason has to be because we have to repeat everything to men... The husband then turned to his wife and asked, 'What?' CREATION A man said to his wife one day, 'I don't know how youcan besostupid[/color]andso beautiful all at the same time.' The wife responded, 'Allow me to explain.

Suddenly, the man realized that the next day, he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AMfor an early morning business flight.Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and LOSE), he wrote on a piece of paper, 'Please wake me at 5:00 AM.' He left it where he knew she would find it.The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 AMand he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn't wakened him, when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed. The paper said, 'It is 5:00 AM. Wake up.'

Fw: MICROWAVING WATER !
Important information. A 26-year old man decided to have a cup of coffee. He took a cup of water and put it in the microwave to heat it up (something that he had done numerous times before). I am not sure how long he set the timer for, but he wanted to bring the water to a boil. When the timer shut the oven off, he removed the cup from the oven. As he looked into the cup, he noted that the! water was not boiling, but suddenly the water in the cup 'blew up' into his face. The cup remained intact until he threw it out of his hand, but all the water had flown out into his face due to the buildup of energy. His whole face is blistered and he has 1st and 2nd degree burns to his face which may leave scarring. He also may have lost partial sight in his left eye. While at the hospital, the doctor who was attending to him stated that this is a fairly common occurrence and water (alone) should never be heated in a microwave oven. If water is heated in this manner, something should be placed in the cup to diffuse the energy such as a wooden stir stick, tea bag, etc.., (nothing metal). General Electric's Response: Thanks for contacting us, I will be happy to assist you. The e-mail that you received is correct. Microwaved water and other liquids do not always bubble when they reach the boiling point. They can actually get superheated and not bubble at all. The superheated liquid will bubble up out of the cup when it is moved or when something like a spoon or tea bag is put into it. To prevent this from happening and causing injury, do not heat any liquid for more than two minutes per cup. After heating, let the cup stand in the microwave for thirty seconds! before moving it or adding anything into it. Here is what our local science teacher had to say on the matter: 'Thanks for the microwave warning. I have seen this happen before. It is caused by a phenomenon known as super heating. It can occur anytime water is heated and will particularly occur if the vessel that the water is heated in is new, or when heating a small amount of water (less than half a cup). What happens is that the water heats faster than the vapor bubbles can form. If the cup is very new then it is unlikely to have small surface scratches inside it that provide a place for the bubbles to form. As the bubbles cannot form and release some of the heat has built up, the liquid does not boil, and the liquid continues to heat up well past its boiling point. What then usually happens is that the liquid is bumped or jarred, which is just enough of a shock to cause the bubbles to rapidly form and expel the hot liquid. The rapid formation of bubbles is also why a carbonated beverage spews when opened after having been shaken.' Snopes confirmed. If you pass this on you could very well save someone from a lot of pain and suffering Mail.jpg

Fw: Face book is not SAFE
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THOSE WHO ARE USING FACEBOOK Hacker Proves Facebook’s Public Data Is Public Security specialist Ron Bowes has once again proven how easy it is to glean valuable user information from Facebook, by spidering Facebook’s online directory and compiling it all into one neat little torrent that could be downloaded off his site, SkullSecurity.com. Bowes created a torrent containing over 171 million entries with links to profiles that provide access to the names, addresses and phone numbers of 100 million users, one fifth of Facebook. Bowes accessed Facebook’s directory, which has the default dictum “Anyone can opt out of appearing here by changing their Search privacy settings.” Yeah, but should they have to? These kinds of security breaches will only encourage more hackers desperate for attention. Now would be a good time for Facebook to set their default search to “Friends Only.” Why? Because most people are aren’t quite aware that check mark next to “Everyone” includes a hacker who can grab your personal info, package it up and sell it to the highest bidder. According to Bowes the torrent contains (at 2.8 GB, our torrent is “still downloading”) … The URL of every searchable Facebook user’s profile. The name of every searchable Facebook user, both unique and by count (perfect for post-processing, datamining, etc). Processed lists, including first names with count, last names with count, potential usernames with count, etc. The programs [Bowes] used to generate everything [which makes it easy for other hackers to replicate the process] While the advice to an individual user to change your privacy settings may be moot at this point, the suggestion that Facebook make it profiles unindexable by default isn’t. Especially when you read the more ominous statement from Bowes further on in his post on the breach, “So far, I have only indexed the searchable users, not their friends … I’d like to tackle that in the future.”
Fw: Friendship day greetings.
Happy Friendship Day ! For some people friendship is everything and every person has some view about friendship. A famous quote by Anais Nin says: “Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.” Friendship day is the day of celebrations of the most warm feelings of the heart: Friendship. It is celebrated on the first Sunday of August every year. Friendship day 2010 is on 1st of August. It was in 1935 when the idea of dedicating a day in honor of friends was conceived. US Congress proclaimed that there should be some day dedicated to friendship. They chose it to be the first Sunday of August. This charming idea was joyfully accepted by several other countries across the world. Since then friendship day has become an annual day for reflecting on sacred feeling of friendship. Here are a few interesting facts about the International Friendship day: * The United Nations named Winnie the Pooh as the world’s Ambassador of Friendship in 1997. * Women’s Friendship Day is on the 3rd Sunday of September. So, dear girls, do not forget to celebrate this special day. * International Friendship month is February. * The 3rd week of May is called Old friends, New friends week. * Dia del Amigo is Spanish Friendship day that is celebrated every year on July 20.

40 US billionaires pledge to give away half their wealth
From Yahoo.News: Thu, Aug 5 11:13 AM Forty US billionaires pledged to give away at least half of their wealth to philanthropic purpose in response to a campaign by Microsoft chief Bill Gates and legendary investor Warren Buffet. Among those who pledged their contributions are New York mayor Michael Bloomberg, noted Hollywood director George Lucas and media mogul Ted Turner. The group today joined six other billionaires who had already made previous pledges, which includes Gates and Buffet who launched an initiative asking fellow billionaires to share a sizeable chunk of their wealth during their lifetime or after their death for humanitarian cause. The US has 403 billionaires in the world - the most in the world, and New York tops the list within the country. Buffet, who heads the insurance and investment company Berkshire Hathaway Inc, has pledged 99 per cent of his wealth. In 2006, I made a commitment to gradually give all of my Berkshire Hathaway stock to philanthropic foundations. I couldn't be happier with that decision, he wrote in a pledge letter. Now, Bill and Melinda Gates and I are asking hundreds of rich Americans to pledge at least 50 per cent of their wealth to charity. In his pledge, Bloomberg underlined the need for rich people to give away their wealth now and not wait until they were dead. The reality of great wealth is that you can't spend it and you can't take it with you, he said. And so I am enthusiastically taking the Giving Pledge, and nearly all of my net worth will be given away in the years ahead or left to my foundation. The campaign does not require billionaires to make donations to The Giving Pledge, but only to give away their wealth in some charitable cause of their own choice. George Lucas, creator of Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies, highlighted the need for reforming the education system in the US, to something more than an assembly line with producing diplomas as its only goal. When I was in high school, I felt like I was in a vacuum, biding time. I was curious, but bored. It was not an atmosphere conducive to learning, Lucas wrote, noting that he started 'Edutopia and the George Lucas Educational Foundation' to push educational innovation. Storytellers are teachers and communicators who speak a universal language. That was Homer's primary role, and both Plato and Aristotle used narratives and dialogues as a means of educating, he said. In his letter, Ted Turner talked about the strong impression his father's philanthropic efforts like - supporting tuition of two African-American students in the late 1950s - had left on him. The media mogul noted that the contributions of more than USD 1.3 billion to various causes over the years was one of his best investments. Those dollars have improved lives, saved species, fought disease, educated children, inspired change, challenged ideas and opened minds; and at the time of my death, virtually all of my wealth will have gone to charity, he said. Bill Gates, who has a net worth of USD 53 billion, is the second richest man in the world, according to Forbes magazine. He was dethroned from the number one spot, this year by Mexican telecommunications czar Carlos Slim Helu with a net worth of USD 53.5 billion. Bill and Melinda Gates have given more than USD 28 billion to their foundation since it was founded in 1994. We have committed the vast majority of our assets to the Bill amp; Melinda Gates Foundation to help stop preventable deaths such as these, and to tear down other barriers to health and education that prevent people from making the very most of their lives, Gates wrote. Below are details on how much they are worth, based on data from Forbes magazine, and how they made their fortune. Bill and Melinda Gates -- founder of software giant Microsoft and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation; worth $53.5 billion. Warren Buffett -- famed investor who made his fortune through his Berkshire Hathaway firm, which buys companies he sees as undervalued; worth $47 billion Eli Broad -- the real estate and construction billionaire founded home builder Kaufman amp; Broad, worth $5.7 billion; has already given more than $2 billion to The Broad Foundations; worth $5.9 billion. John Doerr -- venture capitalist with Kleiner Perkins Caufield amp; Byers who made millions with early bets on Amazon, Netscape and Sun Microsystems and became a billionaire with Google; worth $1.7 billion. Gerry Lenfest -- the media entrepreneur has already given away more than $800 million, or about 65 percent of his fortune, a spokeswoman said. John Morgridge -- Former Cisco Systems chairman now focuses on philanthropy; worth $1.6 billion. Paul Allen -- Founded software giant Microsoft with Gates; worth $13.5 billion. Laura and John Arnold -- John Arnold worked as a high-flying trader at Enron and then founded hedge fund Centaurus Energy; worth $4 billion.

Fw: Touching life story.....
Touching life story. A young man was getting ready to graduate college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted. As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible. Angrily, he raised his voice at his father and said, With all your money you give me a Bible? and stormed out of the house, leaving the holy book. Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his father was very old, and thought perhaps he should go to him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care things. When he arrived at his father's house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search his father's important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he read those words, a car key dropped from an envelope taped behind the Bible. It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words...PAID IN FULL. How many times do we miss God's blessings because they are not packaged as we expected?
Fw: Ship Wreck
Ship Wreck A ship was wrecked during a storm at sea and only two of the men on it were able to swim to a small desert like island. The two survivors, not knowing what else to do, agreed that they have no other recourse but to pray to God for help. However, to find out whose prayer was more powerful, they decided to divide the territory between them and stay on opposite sides of the island. The first thing they prayed for was food. The next morning, the first man saw a fruit-bearing tree on his side of the island, and he was able to eat its fruit. The other man's parcel of land remained barren. After a week, the first man was lonely and he decided to pray for a wife. The next day, there was another ship wreck, and the only survivor was a woman who swam to his side of the island. On the other side of the island, there still was nothing. Soon the first man prayed for a house, clothes, and more food. The next day, like magic, all of these things were given to him. However, the second man still had nothing. Finally, the first man prayed for a ship, so that he and his wife could leave the island. In the morning, he found a ship docked on his side of the island. The first man boarded the ship with his wife and decided to leave the second man on the island. He considered the other man unworthy to receive God's blessings, since none of his prayers had been answered. As the ship was about to leave, the first man heard a voice from heaven boom-out, Why are you leaving your companion on the island? My blessings are mine alone, since I was the one who prayed for them, the first man answered. His prayers were all unanswered and so he does not deserve anything. You are mistaken! the voice rebuked him. He had only one prayer, which I answered. If not for that, you would not have received any of my blessings. Tell me, the first man asked the voice, what did he pray for that I should owe him anything? He prayed that all your prayers would be answered. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ For all we know, our blessings are not the fruits of our prayers alone, but those of another praying for us. This is too good not to share. With obedience and love for others come blessings. My prayer for you today is that all your prayers will be answered. Be blessed. What you do for others is more important than what you do for yourself. [ Author Unknown -- submitted by: Bob Francis (sir...@pcez.com) ]

UNBELIEVABLE enjoy! The older we get ONE Recently, when I went to McDonald's I saw on the menu that you could have an order of 6, 9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets. I asked for a half dozen nuggets. 'We don't have half dozen nuggets,' said the teenager at the counter. 'You don't?' I replied. 'We only have six, nine, or twelve,' was the reply. 'So I can't order a half dozen nuggets, but I can order six?' 'That's right.' So I shook my head and ordered six McNuggets (Unbelievable but sadly true...) TWO I was checking out at the local Walmart with just a few items and the lady behind me put her things on the belt close to mine. I picked up one of those 'dividers' that they keep by the cash register and placed it between our things so they wouldn't get mixed. After the girl had scanned all of my items, she picked up the 'divider', looking it all over for the bar code so she could scan it. Not finding the bar code, she said to me, 'Do you know how much this is?' I said to her 'I've changed my mind; I don't think I'll buy that today.' She said 'OK,' and I paid her for the things and left. She had no clue to what had just happened. THREE A woman at work was seen putting a credit card into her floppy drive and pulling it out very quickly. When I inquired as to what she was doing, she said she was shopping on the Internet and they kept asking for a credit card number, so she was using the ATM 'thingy.' (keep shuddering!!) FOUR I recently saw a distraught young lady weeping beside her car. 'Do you need some help?' I asked. She replied, 'I knew I should have replaced the battery to this remote door unlocker. Now I can't get into my car. Do you think they (pointing to a distant convenience store) would have a battery to fit this?' 'Hmmm, I don't know. Do you have an alarm, too?' I asked. 'No, just this remote thingy,' she answered, handing it and the car keys to me. As I took the key and manually unlocked the door, I replied, 'Why don't you drive over there and check about the batteries. It's a long walk' PLEASE just lay down before you hurt yourself !!! FIVE Several years ago, we had an Intern who was none too swift. One day she was typing and turned to a secretary and said, 'I'm almost out of typing paper. What do I do?' 'Just use paper from the photocopier', the secretary told her. With that, the intern took her last remaining blank piece of paper, put it on the photocopier and proceeded to make five 'blank' copies. Brunette, by the way!! SIX A mother calls 911 very worried asking the dispatcher if she needs to take her kid to the emergency room, the kid had eaten ants. The dispatcher tells her to give the kid some Benadryl and he should be fine, the mother says, 'I just gave him some ant killer..' Dispatcher: 'Rush him in to emergency!' Life is tough. It's even tougher if you're stupid Someone had to remind me, so I'm reminding you too. Don't laugh.it is all true... __ Think before you print.

Fw: VIRUS ATTACK on Orkut.
This is real alert and not hoax mail . Take precaution. Forwarding news about A VIRUS ATTACK on Orkut. California, Sep 26: Just few days after the social networking site Twitter attacked by virus which sent its followers to porn sites, another popular networking hub Orkut also affected by virus. Orkut, which is very popular in India, has been hit by aworm named 'Bom Sabado', which means 'Good Saturday' in Portuguese. Analysts told that the virus attacked the XSS (cross-site scripting) of the site. This virus posted scraps to the Orkut users with the text Bom Sabado and is sent to the users account by the name of the other friends account. Making it more severe the worm also adds affected users to new Orkut groups. The security experts warned the users not to not log into their Orkut account until the problem gets solved. Users also asked not to click on any suspicious links. Earlier on Sep 2010, the most popular social networking hub with more than 500 million users, Facebook, also faced networking glitches due to an outside technical problem. It was Facebook's most tragic outrage in its history. S.V.SAI BABA
Fw: Take Care and Beware !
Take Care and Beware ! Are you consuming your daily recommended number of fruits ? Beware, you may also be consuming more than your daily allotment of PESTICIDES. Peaches top the list of most pesticide-ridden fruits, with some combination of up to 53 pesticides found on all the peaches in the study...yikes. With their relatively thin skin, peeling and washing can only do so much, so this one tops the list of fruits to definitely buy organic whenever possible. An apple a day might keep the doctor away, but too many conventionally-grown apples might eventually send you to the doctor. Apples had 50 different pesticides found on them, so if you pick apples instead of gum to fight bad breath, pick organic apples With 97.3 percent of the samples testing positive for pesticides, nectarines are third on the list of fruits with a high pesticide load. 85.3 percent of the samples of the fruit known by some as peaches without the fuzz had multiple pesticides on a single sample -- the second-highest number, behind peaches. With 38 different pesticides found, strawberries check in as the fourth fruit to buy organic whenever possible. And, without a skin, there isn't much between you and whatever has happened to accumulate on the berries. Cherries are the next fruit on the list of the 12 most contaminated fruits, that, when combined with commonly pesticide-laden vegetables, will expose a person to about 10 pesticides per day, on average. Imported grapes earned the spot as sixth-dirtiest fruit on the list; interestingly, grapes grown in the U.S. Also earn a spot, though further down the list. Pears are next on the list, based on the six methods that each piece of fruit was tested by: percent of the samples tested with detectable pesticides, and percent with two or more pesticides; average number of pesticides found on a sample, and average amount (level in parts per million) of all pesticides found, maximum number of pesticides found on a single sample, and number of pesticides found in total. Given all that, that pears are in the middle of the pack. Raspberries check in at number eight on the list. And what damage could a little pesticide on a little raspberry do? According to a study in the journal Occupational and Environmental Medicine found that people who had been exposed to even low levels of pesticides were found to be 1.13 times as likely to have Parkinson's disease as those who had never been exposed. Grapes are back on the list, this time for those grown in the U.S. And, while grapes aren't regularly peeled before they're eaten, they should definitely still be washed, because washing does reduce levels of some pesticides. However, other pesticides are also taken up internally into the plant, are in the fruit, and cannot be washed off. Plums round out the top 10. Like the other stone fruits on the list, they're tough to scrub, and aren't really receptive to quick 'n easy peeling, so going organic is your best bet for healthy, clean plums. And, while scientists from Israel have been able to genetically modify plums to deliver a huge payload of antioxidants, we still have to ask, is it worth the potential risk? Oranges go to eleven on the list. Part of the reason they're further down is that they have a thick rind that is often discarded (or composted, though orange peels show surprising promise as feedstock for ethanol as well) rather than eaten, as with stone fruits, grapes, and other fruits with edible skins. Still, if you like to cook with zest of the rind and want to minimize your risk from one of the most-consumed fruits, stick with organic oranges. Rounding out the list are tangerines. Similar to an orange (and sometimes mistaken for them), the tangerine tends to be smaller, and many have thinner rinds than most oranges. That means a bit less real estate for pesticide-blocking.
Fw: CELL PHONES AND HEALTH
One of the most common sights we see these days, is that of people with their mobile phones next to their ears. A boon for better communication, cell phone usage nonetheless has many health hazards. Various studies indicate that the emissions from a cell phone can be extremely harmful, causing genetic damage, tumors, memory loss, and increased blood pressure and weakening of the immune system. This is alarming information, and one has to take into account all these factors.. CELL PHONES AND HEALTH Though there is no evidence of cell phones causing cancer or any such illness, but the suspicion, or fear of the same is not baseless either. The electromagnetic radiation from cell phones does have a potential link to cancer. The fact that this radiation is invisible, intangible, and enters and leaves our bodies without our knowledge makes it even more intimidating. Possible hazards: * Two minutes of exposure to emissions from mobile phones can disable a safety barrier in blood causing proteins and toxins to leak into the brain, could increase chances of developing Alzheimer's multiple sclerosis and Parkinson's. (Scientists at Sweden's Lund University) * Scientists say exposure to the phones' low-level radiation causes red blood cells to leak hemoglobin and can lead to heart disease and kidney stones. * Recent studies suggesting a link between cell-phone use and brain tumors, and the possibility that the microwaves could ignite petroleum fumes at gas stations. * A cell phone unit, or communications tower, has so many of thee radiation emanating gadgets. This can be a problem for its immediate environment.

Good Morning Take Some Time... SAI BABA
Fw: The TRUTH ABOUT COCONUT OIL
Forwading this useful article since it is very informative... S.V.Sai baba . The Truth about Coconut Oil The truth about coconut oil is obvious to anyone who has studied the health of those who live in traditional tropical cultures, where coconut has been a nutritious diet staple for thousands of years. Back in the 1930's, a dentist named Dr. Weston Price traveled throughout the South Pacific, examining traditional diets and their effect on dental and overall health. He found that those eating diets high in coconut products were healthy and trim, despite the high fat concentration in their diet, and that heart disease was virtually non-existent. Similarly, in 1981, researchers studied populations of two Polynesian atolls. Coconut was the chief source of caloric energy in both groups. The results, published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition,[2] demonstrated that both populations exhibited positive vascular health. In fact, no evidence exists that the naturally occurring high saturated fat intake had any kind of harmful effect in these populations! That's not what you expected, is it? Based on 60 years of negative public policy towards naturally occurring saturated fats, you would expect these cultures to be rife with clogged arteries, obesity and heart disease. It may be surprising for you to realize that the naturally occurring saturated fat in coconut oil actually has some amazing health benefits, such as: * Promoting your heart health[3] * Promoting weight loss, when needed[4] * Supporting your immune system health[5] * Supporting a healthy metabolism[6] * Providing you with an immediate energy source[7] * Keeping your skin healthy and youthful looking * Supporting the proper functioning of your thyroid gland[8] But how is this possible? Does coconut oil have some secret ingredients not found in other saturated fats? The answer is a resounding yes. Coconut Oil's Secret Ingredient 50 percent of the fat content in coconut oil is a fat rarely found in nature called lauric acid. If you're a frequent reader of my newsletter you already know that I consider lauric acid a miracle ingredient because of its unique health promoting properties. Your body converts lauric acid into monolaurin, which has anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-protozoa properties.[9] Monolaurin is a monoglyceride which can actually destroy lipid coated viruses such as: * HIV, herpes * Measles * Influenza virus * Various pathogenic bacteria * Protozoa such as giardia lamblia. Lauric acid is a powerful virus and gram-negative bacteria destroyer, and coconut oil contains the most lauric acid of any substance on earth! Capric acid, another coconut fatty acid present in smaller amounts, has also been added to the list of coconut's antimicrobial components. This is one of the key reasons you should consider consuming coconut oil, because there aren't many sources of monolaurin in our diet. But the health benefits of coconut oil don't stop there. The Benefits of Medium-Chain Fatty Acids Coconut oil is about 2/3 medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs), also called medium-chain triglycerides or MCTs. These types of fatty acids produce a whole host of health benefits. Coconut oil is nature's richest source of these healthy MCFAs. By contrast, most common vegetable or seed oils are comprised of long chain fatty acids (LCFAs), also known as long-chain triglycerides or LCTs. Let me tell you why these long-chain fatty acids are not as healthy for you as the MCFAs found in coconut oil[10] : * LCFAs are difficult for your body to break down -- they require special enzymes for digestion. * LCFAs put more strain on your pancreas, liver and your entire digestive system. * LCFAs are predominantly stored in your body as fat. * LCFAs can be deposited within your arteries in lipid forms such as cholesterol. * In contrast to LFCAs, the MCFAs found in coconut oil have many health benefits, including the following beneficial qualities: * MCFAs are smaller. They permeate cell membranes easily, and do not require special enzymes to be utilized effectively by your body. * MCFAs are easily digested, thus putting less strain on your digestive system. * MCFAs are sent directly to your liver, where they are immediately converted into energy rather than being stored as fat. * MCFAs actually help stimulate your body's metabolism, leading to weight loss. Coconut Oil Helps Fight Diabetes Your body sends medium-chain fatty acids directly to your liver to use as energy. This makes coconut oil a powerful source of instant energy to your body, a function usually served in the diet by simple carbohydrates. But although coconut oil and simple carbohydrates share the ability to deliver quick energy

Fw: Letter to God- Too Funny
You may have read this before, but sending it to you to bring a smile again. There was a man who worked for the Post Office whose job was to process all the mail that had illegible addresses. One day, a letter came addressed in a shaky handwriting to God with no actual address. He thought he should open it to see what it was about. The letter read: Dear God, I am an 83 year old widow, living on a very small pension. Yesterday someone stole my purse. It had $100 in it, which was all the money I had until my next pension payment. Next Sunday is Christmas, and I had invited two of my friends over for dinner. Without that money, I have nothing to buy food with, have no family to turn to, and you are my only hope. Can you please help me? Sincerely, Edna The postal worker was touched. He showed the letter to all the other workers. Each one dug into his or her wallet and came up with a few dollars. By the time he made the rounds, he had collected $96, which they put into an envelope and sent to the woman. The rest of the day, all the workers felt a warm glow thinking of Edna and the dinner she would be able to share with her friends. Christmas came and went.. A few days later, another letter came from the same old lady to God. All the workers gathered around while the letter was opened. It read: Dear God, How can I ever thank you enough for what you did for me? Because of your gift of love, I was able to fix a glorious dinner for my friends. We had a very nice day and I told my friends of your wonderful gift. By the way, there was $4 missing. I think it might have been those bastards at the post office!!!. attachment: image.pngattachment: image.png

Fw: Benefits of Sweet Potato (lowers hypertension, bad cholesterol and blood sugar)
Here's another health tip. REALLY!!! Did you know that SWEET POTATO (kamote)far exceeds the nutrition and health values of rice? Here are the benefits of substituting rice with kamote: 1. Sweet potatois more filling and suppresses hunger pangs longer. It is also cheaper than rice. 2. Unlike rice, it is easy to grow. It grows in backyards with or without fertilizers. Local government executives can provide their poor communities with idle government land for planting kamotewhich the entire community can share. 3. Unlike rice which needs to be eaten with a dish, sweet potato tastes good and can be eaten by itself. Thus, substituting rice with sweet potatosaves money for other needs. 4. Rice cannot match the nutritional values of sweet potato.Because rice converts to sugar in the body, the Philippinesregisters as a top producer of diabetics in the world. The poor tends to load up on rice and less on the dish which are more expensive. That makes them vulnerable to diabetes, an ailment known in developed countries as a rich man’s disease. 5.

Too much rice consumption can make you sick, but sweet potato (kamote)can bring you to health and keep away some health problems. These have been proved medically. In a medical documentary I watched recently on KBS World (theSouth Korean TV Network),I was awed by the results of the researchthe Koreansconducted on the nutritional and medicinal benefits ofkamote(which they refer to as sweet potato). In that Koreanmedical documentary I watched (which I followed through the English subtitles), they presented the research findings on people with established health problems who were placed on a kamote/sweet potatodiet. Believe it or not– sweet potato (kamote)lowers hypertension, bad cholesteroland evenblood sugarwhen eaten as SUBSTITUTE TO RICE! Thepurplesweet potato (kamote) is particularly effective forlowering hypertension. Not only that, theKorean medical documentarycredits thesweet potato (kamote) as high fiberand is one of the best foods that one can eat to prevent cancer! For those who are only impressed byUSdoctors, read this: the North Carolina Stroke Association, American Cancer Society, and the American Heart Association have all endorsed the sweetpotatofor its disease prevention and healing qualities. The Americans, the South Koreans– both progressive nations – have raised thekamote to a high pedestal. Many of them even call the sweet potatoa “super food that heals.”

In his toast the President jokingly acknowledged his wife's dance moves, which have dominated the press during their three-day visit to India. Obama said his wife will always be a better dancer than he is and that on their trip to India 'she has turned into a better dancer' thanks to the Bollywood routine she picked up.
