Cyber security threats

2008-05-13T02:45:00.000-07:00

The vulnerability of Indian website especially the government owned yet again came to light causing serious concern when Chinese hackers hacked a BSNL Gujarat website, www.gujarat.bsnl.co.in. It reveals the fact that the government owned telecom measure is no more under its control.

After hacking the government owned telecom website, the hackers left a message on the index page as: “Hacked By Cilgin Hacker thanks: m0sted, kerem125, sari_seytan, ercu_145 all Terörist Crew”.

The sources however expressed confidence that no sensitive material was acquired by the hackers and the website now is fully functional.

Chinese hackers, as most of the hackers’ IP address sketched to China, has been continuously attacking Indian official websites in order to access e-mails and communications between the officials and foreign mission.

As of now there is no such technology developed to provide complete protection to a website, but the only option to constantly monitor the development in the site. Under such circumstances where Internet has replaced every other option in all works, security to official documents, emails is a major security concern.

Earlier this month, the website of the Ministry of External Affairs, Government of India was hacked by some Chinese hackers. Also on the same day hackers got access to the server of official website of Tibetan government-in-exile in India and blocked the site, which was later restored.

In fact, it is not only India, but also the official network of Pentagon, Germany was targeted by hackers last year. However, Chinese officials have been rejecting this allegation terming it as baseless argument.

No doubt there must be large network of hackers, who are hacking official computer networks of different countries in order to destabilize or distract the communication network at any crucial time posing a great threat to the entire functioning.

Seven Blunders of the World

2008-05-09T02:01:00.000-07:00

Seven Blunders of the World is a list that Mahatma Gandhi gave to his grandson Arun Gandhi, written on a piece of paper, on their final day together, not too long before his assassination. The seven blunders are:

Wealth without work
Pleasure without conscience
Knowledge without character
Commerce without morality
Science without humanity
Worship without sacrifice
Politics without principle

This list grew from Gandhi's search for the roots of violence. He called these acts of passive violence. Preventing these is the best way to prevent oneself or one's society from reaching a point of violence.

No Horn Day a success

2008-04-08T01:59:00.000-07:00

On Monday, officially declared No Horn Day, the Mumbai traffic police, in a fell swoop, fined thousands of drivers for violating honking rules in the city. The count up to 6 pm was 6,195 cases.

Beginning Monday night, the cops plan to crack down further and prosecute offenders under the Environment Protection Act, which has far more stringent penalties: this act, which can be used in cases ranging from bursting firecrackers or blasting loudspeakers after 10 pm to honking at night, has a maximum fine of Rs 1 lakh depending on the severity of the offence.

"This will prove an effective deterrent to errant drivers," joint commissioner of police Hemant Karkare told TOI. "However, this move is at a preliminary stage. We need some more preparation before we go the whole hog."

Karkare declared that the crackdown against shrill and reverse horns, unnecessary honking and honking in silence zones would go on. When a journalist mentioned that SRK felt that No Horn Day should continue for a week, he riposted, "It's not one day or one week. This will now continue permanently."

Karkare will meet NGOs and activists on Wednesday to discuss a long-term plan to control traffic noise pollution. The efforts of the NGOs which participated in No Horn Day will also be recognised at a function at 5.30 on April 9 at the Worli traffic police headquarters.

DCP, traffic, Harish Baijal, whose brainchild No Horn Day was, said he was very happy with the response. "Last night, I sent one crore SMSes via various mobile service providers to raise awareness about No Horn Day."

Holland vs The Netherlands

2008-04-02T22:16:00.000-07:00

Holland is not exactly the other name of the Netherlands. Holland is a part of the Netherlands.

"Holland" is derived from the Middle Dutch term holtland ("wooded land"). This spelling variation remained in use until around the 14th century, at which time the name stabilised as "Holland" (alternative spellings at the time: "Hollant" or "Hollandt"). Popular, but incorrect, etymology holds that "Holland" is derived from hol land ("hollow land") and was inspired by the low-lying geography of Holland.

Meet the World’s Best Performing Stock Market: Pakistan

2008-04-02T21:23:00.001-07:00

If you were one of the legions of Wall Street Kool-Aid drinking emerging-markets speculators who bought into the promise of BRICs–Brazil, Russia, India and China–you would have lost a lot of money in the market thus far this year.

PakistanInstead, the only booming stock markets are those in the most emerging of emerging markets: Pakistan, Peru, and Chile. Those stocks markets have risen, respectively, 9.5%, 7.1%, and 6.6% this year, according to data provided to Deal Journal by FactSet Research Systems. Taiwan, it should be noted, posted a 7.5% rise for the first quarter.

As for the BRICs? Brazil is down 11%, Russia is down 13%, China is down 26% and India is down 40%. Overall, the average for all world markets this year to date is a loss of 11%, which makes the U.S., what, an outperformer with its decline of 9%.

Other risers include Thailand at 3% and Mexico at 1.5%; the biggest decliner after India is Turkey, down 35% since the year started.

There is the possibility that Brazil, Russia, India and China may have peaked because of all the foreign investment that has rushed into them so fast; more likely, they are now such an integrated part of the world economy that they caught the same bug that took down so many other economies. Andy Mukherjee of Bloomberg wrote in this column that a $428 billion stock glut of shares held by the government and strategic investors are coming out of lockup restrictions and will be traded soon in China.

In contrast, Pakistan, Taiwan, Peru and Chile still are flying a bit under the radar when it comes to global investment and deal making. This WSJ quarterly review article today nods at the success of such “frontier” markets.

Of course, one quarter’s success doesn’t an economy make. Investors will be watching to see if these countries, with their illiquid markets and sometimes tenuous political conditions, can grow when the world-wide competition is a bit more intense and not merely float on a rising tide.

What is XQuery For?

2008-03-20T01:45:00.001-07:00

XQuery was devised primarily as a query language for data stored in XML form. So its main role is to get information out of XML databases — this includes relational databases that store XML data, or that present an XML view of the data they hold.

Some people are also using XQuery for manipulating free-standing XML documents, for example, for transforming messages passing between applications. In that role XQuery competes directly with XSLT, and which language you choose is largely a matter of personal preference.

In fact, some people like XQuery so much that they are even using it for rendering XML into HTML for presentation. That's not really the job XQuery was designed for, and I wouldn't recommend people to do that, but once you get to know a tool, you tend to find new ways of using it.

MBA Vs Bcom Student

2006-08-23T21:25:00.000-07:00

This particular joke won an award for the best joke in a
competition organized in Britain and this joke was sent by an
Indian......

A MBA and a Bcom go on a camping trip, set up their tent,and
fell asleep.

Some hours later, the Bcom wakes his MBA friend. " look up
at the sky and tell me what you see."

The MBA replies, "I see millions of stars."

"What does that tell you?"

The MBA ponders for a minute.

"Astronomically speaking, it tells me that there are
millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.

Astrologically, it tells me that Saturn is in Leo.

Time wise, it appears to be approximately a quarter past three.

Theologically, it's evident the Lord is all-powerful and
we are small and insignificant.

Meteorologically, it seems we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.

What does it tell you?"

The Bcom is silent for a moment, then speaks.

"Practically...Someone has stolen our tent".

HR Logic!!!

2006-08-20T21:39:00.001-07:00

After 2 years of selfless service, a man realized that he has not been
promoted, no transfer, no salary increase no commendation and that the
Company is not doing any thing about it. So he decided to walk up to
his HR Manager one morning and after exchanging greetings, he told his
HR Manager his observation. The boss looked at him, laughed and asked
him to sit down saying;

My friend, you have not worked here for even one day.
The man was surprised to hear this, but the manager went on to
explain.

Manager:- How many days are there in a year?
Man:- 365 days and some times 366

Manager:- how many hours make up a day?
Man:- 24 hours

Manager:- How long do you work in a day?
Man:- 8am to 4pm. i.e. 8 hours a day.
Manager:- So, what fraction of the day do you work in hours?
Man:- He did some arithmetic and said 8/24 hours i.e. 1/3 (one third)

Manager:- That is nice of you! What is one-third of 366 days?
Man:- 122 (1/3x366 = 122 in days)

Manager:- Do you come to work on weekends?
Man:- No sir

Manager:- How many days are there in a year that are weekends?
Man:- 52 Saturdays + 52 Sundays = 104 days

Manager:- Thanks for that. If you remove 104 days from 122 days, how
many days do you now have?
Man:- 18 days.

Manager:- OK! I do give you 2 weeks sick leave every year. Now remove
that
14 days from the 18 days left. How many days do you have remaining?
Man:- 4 days

Manager:- Do you work on New Year day?
Man:- No sir!

Manager:- Do you come to work on workers day?
Man:- No sir!

Manager:- So how many days are left?
Man:- 2 days sir!

Manager:- Do you come to work on the National holiday?
Man:- No sir!

Manager:- So how many days are left?
Man:- 1 day sir!

Manager:- Do you work on Christmas day?
Man:- No sir!

Manager:- So how many days are left?
Man:- None sir!

Manager:- So, what are you claiming?
Man:- I have understood, Sir. I did not realise that I was stealing
Company money all these days.

Intellectual joke

2006-08-19T02:50:00.000-07:00

Once all the scientists die and go to heaven............ They decide
to play hide-n-seek.........Unfortunately Einstein is the one who has the den...........He is supposed to count up to 100...and then start searching.....

Everyone starts hiding except Newton .........
Newton just draws a square of 1 meter and stands in it right in front of Einstein...........

Einstein's counting
1,2,3......97,98,99.....100........ He opens his eyes and finds Newton standing in front........

Einstein says "newton's out..newton's....out....."
Newton denies and says i am not out........
He claims that he is not Newton ......

All the scientists come out to see how he proves that he is not Newton ..........

Newton says "I am standing in a square of area 1m squared..... That makes me Newton per meter squared...... since one Newton per meter squared is one Pascal, I'm Pascal, Therefore Pascal is OUT...........!

DO YOU LOVE SOMEONE THIS MUCH?

2006-08-19T02:31:00.001-07:00

A girl and guy were speeding over 100 mph on the road on a motorcycle...
Girl: Slow down. Im scared.
Guy: No this is fun.
Girl: No its not. Please, its too scary!
Guy: Then tell me you love me.
Girl: Fine, I love you. Slow down!
Guy: Now give me a BIG hug.
Girl hugs him
Guy: Can you take my helmet off & put it on yourself? Its bugging me.
In the paper the next day :( A motorcycle had crashed into a building because of brake failure. Two people were on it, but only one had survived.
The truth was that halfway down the road, the guy realized that his brakes broke, but he didn't want to let the girl know. Instead, he had her say she loved him & felt her hug him one last time, then had her wear his helmet so that she would live even though it meant that he would die.
If there is anyone in life you love this much, please send this. Forward this to all your good friends on-line to show them that you care.

14 people~ your wish will come true in the next 24 hours!
BUT...... If you do not send this to any one, you will have bad luck!!!!

True Story Of Two Friends..

2006-08-19T02:31:00.000-07:00

Sometimes you need to tell someone that you are sorry

Last night you and your best friend had had a fight.
You decide not to talk to her the next day.

She smiles at you.
You grind your teeth at her.

She tells her friends nice things about you.
You spread Bad rumors about her.
She tries to come and talk to you.
But you push her aside.

She thinks you are a great friend.
You think she is a terrible friend.

She writes nice notes to you, telling you the best
times you had had together.
You write all the bad.

Deep down you know she's sorry.
But all you have is hate.

The next day at school you find a note on your desk.
It reads:

Dear ,

I tried to tell you yesterday,
But you didn't let me speak,
I tried to tell you good things, but you were afraid to
hear them.
I tried to smile at you,
to take away the hate.
But now it's time to tell you, even though it's a bit
late.
That I am dieing.
I have a bad tumor in my stomach and it is getting
bigger. I'm sorry to have to tell you that i wont be
able to go to school today.
I wrote this to you today in the hospital.
My time is up.
I'm sorry i should have told you sooner.
I'm really sorry about our argument, you are such a
great friend.
I promise i shall watch over you,

Lots of love

Katie.

You ran to the hospital to tell her she was sorry,
But only her mum was left.

Her hand clapped over her face.
And she was crying. Down on her knees she prayed,
for her daughter Katie to come back.

You were too late.
You wish you told her sooner and got to say goodbye.

All friends have their ups and downs, and sometimes
you need to say sorry.
Don't wait for her to do it first.
Because you never know what could happen.

If you really love your friends and would watch down
on them when you pass away, please send this on and
show people that you really have a heart.

Even if you send this to 1 person only. You still have
a heart.

Apprisal Letter

2006-08-13T09:20:00.000-07:00

Dear Manager (HR),

Bob Smith, my assistant programmer, can always be found
hard at work in his cubicle. Bob works independently, without
wasting company time talking to colleagues. Bob never
thinks twice about assisting fellow employees, and he always
finishes given assignments on time. Often Bob takes extended
measures to complete his work, sometimes skipping coffee
breaks. Bob is a dedicated individual who has absolutely no
vanity in spite of his high accomplishments and profound
knowledge in his field. I firmly believe that Bob can be
classed as a high-calibre employee, the type which cannot be
dispensed with. Consequently, I duly recommend that Bob be
promoted to executive management, and a proposal will be
sent away as soon as possible.

Signed - Project Leader

A MEMO WAS SOON SENT FOLLOWING THE LETTER:

"That stupid idiot was reading over my shoulder when I wrote the report
sent to you earlier today. Kindly read only the odd lines (1, 3, 5, 7, 9,11, 13) for my true assessment of him."

Story that happened in Banglore

2006-08-05T06:35:00.000-07:00

Hey this is a real story that happened.....................

If you know some one staying in B'glore let them know this If you are in b'lore, do go through this story COZ, its a real one. Read this true story... and let everybody you know in and around Bangalore especially Bannerghatta Road .......

My friend lives in Malleshwaram... One day he went to Bannerghatta Road to visit his uncle for some days as his parents had to attend a wedding in Coimbatore. One evening he and some other of my college friends went to Yellahanka for a movie.

He had so much fun that he forgot that it's very late. He caught the last local bus to Bannerghatta Road ..... he reached Bannerghatta Road around midnight......

He had to walk about a mile from the bus stop to home....

As he was walking alone, he could sense that the night felt very creepy as it was so dark. While walking, he was astonished to see an old creepy looking guy selling some books. It was a very unusual thing to see a thing like that.....

It got the shivers ! on him when he noticed that his old guy is unusually pale and staring at him...The old guy said "Son why don't you get a book...it would keep you company".

Then he did something which he would regret for the rest of his life. My friend started to act brave & thought why not & had a look at his collections... My friend's hair started to rise up as he noticed that all the books were related to supernatural activities...but he found one that was very interesting.

So he asked the old man "how much is it, uncle?".... The old guy replied,"Well son...this is an interesting book...it's only for Rs 250.
My friend was shocked and said "but...but... it's expensive"

This time the old man stared which freaked my friend.

My friend quickly checked all his pockets & found Rs. 200 & said "This is all I have." The old guy replied "It's OK son ....you can have the book for that price"

As ! my friend was just about to run for home...the old man called back & said "Son ... whatever happen, you don't ever flip the book to it's last page... remember these words or you would regret...!!!!!"

My friend nodded and never looked back ... Reaching home...he quickly asked his Uncle whether there was any new old book seller nearby? The Uncle replied "not that I know of but ...we've
heard that there's 1 old man comes once in a while during full moon nights but heard that there is something creepy about it...why son?"

My friend freaked out... he told his uncle "nothing uncle...just asking". He started reading the book with the old man's words on his mind. At night, 12 0'clock, as he went to bed, a gush of wind blew which chilled him up to his bones. At that glimpse, he noticed the wind had blown the pages to its last page. He remembered what the old man has said! But we humans tend to have the tendency to know. Out of curiosity, he flipped to the last page & fainted... What he saw at the
last page is stated below:

Don't look further down if you have a weak heart. warn you!!!

RAMAYANA BRIDGE

NASA SHUTTLE IMAGES OF A MYSTERIOUS ANCIENT BRIDGE BETWEEN INDIA AND SRILANKA

Courtesy : NASA Digital Image Collection

The recently discovered bridge currently named as Adam's Bridge made of chain of shoals, c.18 mi (30 km) long, in the Palk Strait between India and Sri Lanka , reveals a mystery behind it. The bridge's unique curvature and composition by age reveals that it is man made. The legends as well as Archeological studies reveal that the first signs of hu man inhabitants in Sri Lanka date back to the a primitive age, about 17,50,000 years ago and the bridge's age is also almost equivalent. This information is a crucial aspect for an insight into the mysterious legend called Ramayana, which was supposed to have taken place in tretha yuga (more than 17,00,000 years ago). In this epic, there is a mentioning about a bridge, which was built between Rameshwaram ( India ) and Srilankan coast under the supervision of a dynamic and invincible figure called Rama who is supposed to be the incarnation of the supreme. This information may not be of much importance ! t o the archeologist s who are int erested in exploring the origins of man, but it is sure to open the spiritual gates of the people of the world to have come to know an ancient history linked to the Indian mythology.

Money...

2006-07-21T05:01:00.000-07:00

I am going to say about the..........
Money

It can buy a house
But not a home

It can buy a clock
But not time

It can buy you a position
But not respect

It can buy you a bed
But not sleep

It can buy you a book
But not knowledge

It can buy you medicine
But not health

It can buy you blood
But not life

So you see money isn't everything
And it often causes pain and suffering
I tell you this because I am your friend
And as your friend I want to
Take away your pain and suffering!!

So
Send me all your money

And I will suffer for you!
Cash only,no cheque please!

After all, what are friends for, right??

You are Special

The Most Important Part

2006-07-17T03:59:00.000-07:00

My mother used to ask me what is the most important part of the body. Through the years I would take a guess at what I thought was the correct answer.

When I was younger, I thought sound was very important to us as humans, so I said, "My ears, Mommy." She said, 'No. Many people are deaf. But you keep thinking about it and I will ask you again soon.'

Several years passed before she asked me again. Since making my first attempt, I had contemplated the correct answer. So this time I told her, 'Mommy, sight is very important to everybody, so it must be our eyes.'

She looked at me and told me, 'You are learning fast, but the answer is not correct because there are many people who are blind.'

Stumped again, I continued my quest for knowledge and over the years, Mother asked me a couple more times and always her answer was 'No, but you are getting smarter every year, my child.'

Then last year, my Grandpa died. Everybody was hurt. Everybody was crying. Even my father cried. My Mom looked at me when it was our turn to say our final good-bye to Grandpa. She asked me, 'Do you know the most important body part yet, my dear?'

I was shocked when she asked me this now. I always thought this was a game between her and me. She saw the confusion on my face and told me. 'This question is very important. It shows that you have really lived your life.

For every body part you gave me in the past, I have told you was wrong and I have given you an example why. But today is the day you need to learn this important lesson.

She looked down at me as only a mother can. I saw her eyes well up with tears. She said, 'My dear, the most important body part is your shoulder'

I asked, 'Is it because it holds up your head?' She replied, 'No, it is because it can hold the head of a friend or loved one when they cry.

Everybody, need a shoulder to cry on sometime in life, my dear. I only hope that you have enough love and friends that you will have a shoulder to cry on when you need it.'

Then and there I knew the most important body part is not a selfish one. It is sympathetic to the pain of others.

Men on earth die and go to heaven.

God comes and says," I want the men to form two queues - one line for the men who dominated their women, and the other one for the men who were dominated by their women. Also, I want all the women to go away so that no man and woman can talk."

Next time God comes back, the women are gone, and there are two lines.The line for the men who were dominated by their women is 100 miles long, and in the line of men who dominated their women there is only one man.

God gets mad and says, "You men should be ashamed of yourselves. I created you in my image, and you were all whipped by your mates.

Look at the only one of my sons who stood up and made me proud. Learn from him!

Tell them, my son, how did you manage to be the only one in this line?"

The man replies, "I don't know, my wife told me to stand here."

DANGER OF COKE & PEPSI (SOFT DRINKS)

2006-07-11T06:33:00.000-07:00

AND WE DRINK THIS STUFF! Coke & Pepsi ALARMING FACTS!!!

The average pH of soft drinks, e.g. Coke, Pepsi is pH 3.4. This acidity is strong enough to dissolve teeth and bones! Our human body stops building bones at around the age of 30. After that it'll be dissolving about 8-18% of the bones each year through the urine, depending on the acidity of the food intake (acidity does not depend on the taste of the food, but on the ratio of potassium / calcium / magnesium / etc. to phosphorus).

All the dissolved calcium compounds accumulate in the arteries, veins, skin tissue, and organs. This affects the functioning of the kidney (kidney stones). Soft drinks do not have any nutritional value (in terms of vitamins and minerals). They have higher sugar content, higher acidity, and more additives such as preservatives and colourings.

Some people like to take cold soft drinks after each meal, guess what's the impact? Our body has an optimum temperature of 37 degrees for the functioning of digestive enzymes. The temperature of cold soft drinks is much less than 37, sometimes quite close to 0. This will lower the effectiveness of the enzymes and put stress on the digestive system, digesting less food. In fact the food gets fermented. The fermented food produce bad smelling gases, decays and forms toxin.

SALT THE CURE OF PAIN

2006-07-11T06:31:00.000-07:00

I believe that most of your moms always tell you to drink a glass of salt water/rinse your mouth with salt water if you have a sore throat because salt can reduce inflammation.

This method has actually been proven (medically) to be really effective and it really can help to reduce inflammation.

They have also tested on other medical values of salt and found out that:

If you have pain in your joints/spine/body, you can simply try out this method which can help to relieve the pain (especially for old people who have rheumatism). Simply fry the salt let it settle down for a while before applying on affected areas. And if you have a problem of Hair Loss, you can simply prepare a pail of salt water and rinse your scalp/hair with it (it takes about 2 weeks to a month). It will not help in growing of new hair but can prevent. After tedious/strenous excercise, soaking your feet with salt water can help to prevent cramps and pain., and also prevent from skin irritation. Hope it will be of help to you.

Death Mr. Bhandari after 600 Days being inComa

2006-07-08T05:32:00.000-07:00

Death of Commando Mr. Bhandari after 600 Days being in Coma

Late Mr. Surjan Singh Bhandari
N.S.G. Commando
During The Attack on Akshardham temple on 24th September 2002 this Brave Man fought the greatest battle of his life. Yes he was the N.S.G. Commando Late Mr. Surjan Singh , who sacrificed his life for the Nation. Sadly On 19th May 2004 he lost the Toughest and Longest battle against life exactly after 600 Days being in Coma, he lost this life.

The Bullet which hit him in the head made him Unconscious for almost 600 days. His family members were hoping that one day their Hero will open his eyes but he didn't.

It was the Longest Wait for the family members of this Brave Man. When the whole India was busy in Guessing Who will be the Next PM of the country - Will it be Sonia or will it be Manmohan Singh, This man was fighting his Last battle. But it's so sad that in the hype of all the Political Drama, the News about his Death was Lost like a needle in a hay stack! Even the leading News Papers & So Called Best News Channels of India which Works on 24 X 7 basis, failed to highlight this story of the Brave Man. Unfortunately it was mentioned somewhere on the middle page of some newspaper.....This was the Reward for the Brave task for which he lost his life.

Besides his Family members, only one thing was there with him during those toughest 600 days. It was there near his bed till the last Moment. Can you guess what it was?............... It was the "Tiranga", yes! Our National Flag, which was saluting him for his Great cause. Absolutely No words can suffice our Gratitude towards him...
If news papers refuse to cover, TV channels refuse to cover, let us do our bit.
Please forward this mail to as many people as you can.
This is the only way we can salute his Bravery..
May his soul rest in peace.
Nothing Bad will happen to you if you do not forward this, its just an appeal.

When the Wind Blows

2006-07-03T02:29:00.000-07:00

Years ago a farmer owned land along the Atlantic seacoast. He constantly advertised for hired hands. Most people were reluctant to work on farms along the Atlantic. They dreaded the awful storms that raged across the Atlantic, wreaking havoc on the buildings and crops. As the farmer interviewed applicants for the job, he received a steady stream of refusals.

Finally, a short, thin man, well past middle age, approached the farmer. "Are you a good farmhand?" the farmer asked him.

"Well, I can sleep when the wind blows," answered the little man.

Although puzzled by this answer, the farmer, desperate for help, hired him. The little man worked well around the farm, busy from dawn to dusk, and the farmer felt satisfied with the man's work.

Then one night the wind howled loudly in from offshore. Jumping out of bed, the farmer grabbed a lantern and rushed next door to the hired hand's sleeping quarters. He shook the little man and yelled, "Get up! A storm is coming! Tie things down before they blow away!"

The little man rolled over in bed and said firmly, "No sir. I told you, I can sleep when the wind blows.."

Enraged by the response, the farmer was tempted to fire him on the spot. Instead, he hurried outside to prepare for the storm. To his amazement, he discovered that all of the haystacks had been covered with tarpaulins. The cows were in the barn, the chickens were in the coops, and the doors were barred. The shutters were tightly secured. Everything was tied down. Nothing could blow away.

The farmer then understood what his hired hand meant, so he returned to his bed to also sleep while the wind blew.

MORAL: When you're prepared, spiritually, mentally, and physically, you have nothing to fear.

Can you sleep when the wind blows through your life? The hired hand in the story was able to sleep because he had secured the farm against the storm.

Tips to be young...

2006-07-01T07:20:00.000-07:00

Tips of how to stay young........

Research has found that people who generally live longer do so partly because of good habits. Here, Dr Vernon Coleman and others provide some of the following good habits for longevity.

1. Laugh & fun, don't be gloomy
2. Let bygones be bygones. Dwelling on the past inflicts unnecessary stress.
3. Early to bed, early to rise, is healthy & wise
4. Stay lean, being just 30% overweight is bad.
5. Keep learning, reading & socializing - an alert & active mind keeps brain cells healthy.
6. Keep working, doing something you like. Don't retire, it slows down your body.
7. Be the boss of your own life. Letting others push you around produces stress.
8. Too many pills ruin your body, take just what you need.
9. Constantly alternating between weight gain & loss is bad
10. Exercise, quit smoking and eat less fatty foods
11. Do not worry about health & death, just get on with your life and enjoy it.

After Mr Wichai (Tao), aged 24, from Songkram, who earns his living by dealing in old goods, got married to gorgeous twins Ms Sirintara and Ms Thipawan 22, he vouched his sincerest 'equal love' for both of them. Mr Wichai got married in pompous ceremony to both twins simultaneously. On being interviewed by the Thai Rath reporters, Mr Wichai declared wholeheartedly, that he didn't see much problem in having to perform tiresome marital duties with two wives. In the engagement ceremony before the wedding, Mr Wichai successfully offered a dowry of eight baht of gold and 80,000 baht EACH for his lovely darlings. Both families celebrated the marriage with joy and were said to be delighted for the threesome. Mr Wichai told the press that he had been best of friends with his neighbouring twins since they were children. "When I grew older, I would walk past their house each morning and try to decide for myself which one I fancied more, but it was darned impossible - adored BOTH of them - I just couldn't decide, which one of them to chat up....!" He went on to say "For three continuous years all three of us would go on dates together, until there was one day when I couldn't stand the frustration any longer and told them I love you and want to marry you BOTH " The fortunate Mr Wichai, instead of getting a slap in the face, was overjoyed when both girls admitted to having sworn all along, that they wished to marry the same man! " It wasn't easy at first, what with the neighbours gossiping, but our family sympathized, understood, and fully supported our mutual love for the one man" the twins said. Mr Wichai arranged for his brides to live with him, in his family house after the wedding, and his mother has alread y proudly prepared TWO rooms for
the newly-weds. Our reporters were just gagging to hear the response to this mouth-watering question "And.... what are the sleeping arrangements Mr Wichai"? to which he replied modestly with a beaming smile "Absolutely no problems! For the first three nights of the week, I will sleep with Ms Thipawan and the next three will be spent with Ms Sirintara. As for every Saturday, the three of us will sleep together" Ms Sirintara finally told the press "When my twin and I worked as assistant nurses, we promised each other that we would never leave each others side, and that our future husband would have to either take us both, or leave us" "Anyway, Mr Wichai is the perfect man - he neither smokes nor drinks!"

An Indian Salesman

2006-06-15T20:59:00.000-07:00

The Manager says: "Do you have any sales experience?"

The Indian says: "Sir, I was a salesman back home in India."

Well, the boss liked the Indian chappie so he gave him the job. "You start tomorrow. I'll come down after we close and see how you did."

His first day on the job was rough but he got through it.

After the store was locked up, the boss came down. "How many sales did you make today?"

Indian boy says: "Sir, Just one sale."

The boss says: "Just ONE? No! No! No! You see here our sales people average 20 or 30 sales a day." If you want to keep this job, you'd better be doing better than just one sale. By the way, how much was the sale for?"

Indian boy says: " $101 237. 64"

Boss says: "$101 237. 64? What did you sell?"

Indian boy says: "Sir, First I sell him small fishhook.
Then I sell him medium fishhook.
Then I sell him large fishhook.
Then I sold him new fishing rod and some fishing gear.

Then I ask him where he's going fishing and he said down on the coast, so I told him he'll be needing a boat, so we went down to the boating department and I sell him twin engine Chris Craft.

Then he said he didn't think his Honda Civic would pull it, so I took him down to our automotive department and sell him that 4X4 Blazer.

I then ask him where he'll be staying, and since he had no accommodation, I took him to camping department and sell him one of those new igloo 6 sleeper camper tents.

Then the guy said, while we're at it, I should throw in about $100 worth of groceries and two cases of beer.

The boss said: "You're not serious? A guy came in here to buy a fishhook and you sold him a boat, a 4X4 truck and a tent?"

Indian boy says: "No Sir, actually he came in to buy Anacin for his headache, and I said: Well, fishing is the best way to relax your mind."...

How Two Russian Journalists Cooked an Egg with their Mobile Phones

2006-06-15T20:45:00.000-07:00

Vladimir Lagovski and Andrei Moiseynko from Komsomolskaya Pravda Newspaper in Moscow decided to learn first-hand how harmful cell phones are. There is no magic in cooking with your cell phone. The secret is in the radio waves that the cell phone radiates.

The journalists created a simple microwave structure as shown in the picture. They called from one cell phone to the other and left both phones on talking mode. They placed a tape recorder next to phones to imitate sounds of speaking so the phones would stay on.

After, 15 minutes: The egg became slightly warm.

25 minutes: The egg became very warm.

40 minutes: The egg became very hot.

65 minutes: The egg was cooked. (As you can see.)

Conclusion ..1: Cooking eggs with mobile phones is possible but very expensive ($4.55 or 123 Rubles)

Conclusion ..2: All this talk of danger is exaggerated; even if your brain gets cooked, it would take a couple hours of talking on a cell phone.

Amazing Numerology!!!

2006-06-14T21:52:00.000-07:00

AMAZING NUMEROLOGY TO PREDICT THE FIFA WORLD CUP WINNER

Brazil won the world cup in 1994. Before that, he had won this title for the last time in 1970.

If you add up: 1970 + 1994 = 3964

Argentina won the world cup for the last time in 1986. Before that only in 1978.

And 1978 + 1986 = 3964

Germany, though, won the world cup in 1990. Before that, Germany won in 1974.

Look: 1990 + 1974 = 3964

This could lead us to guess the winner of the World Cup in 2002, since it should be the winner of the 1962 World Cup (In fact 3964 - 2002 = 1962).

And Brazil won the world cup in 1962! (And, in fact, Brazil won the 2002 WC)

This numerology seems to work...

And now, who would be the winner of the 2006 world cup?

Let's see, 3964 - 2006 = 1958

And who won in 1958?....

Oh, Brazil did!!!
