How my gizmos turned worse?

Okay... this day needs to be registered. So bad it is!

1. What could possibly be the effect of streaming an youtube video overnight?
2. What will happen if you did not shutdown the computer operating Windows 7 overnight?
3. What will happen if you get drenched in rain forgetting the mobile in your pocket..?

Had anyone faced similar problems? If not, let me give you an analysis.

Case study no 1:
The first two are almost the same. Let me combine it together.

So actually, the system, operating windows 7 was not shutdown a whole night and the reason for not doing so was since I wanted to watch a hour of video in youtube the previous night and i got so irritated that i left it stream all the night (preferably i din't wanna scream)

This is how things can go wrong. If you are aware of Win 7, you 'll get this very quickly. Win 7 engine is designed for easy taskbar usage. Simply, it puts all the similar applications in one icon in the taskbar, reducing a heck of space there.

Now this is what happened as the result of the above said problems..

Okay.. took a view?

Right.. so it is very obvious that my system should run mozilla firefox as the icon says.. (stating only one example here).. But ... this is what happened...

hufff...!!

Case study no: 2:

You get drenched in rain with your mobile (N6300) in the pocket?

this is how it turns out to be...

As you reach home, the mobile phone automatically switches off when you take it out from the pocket (hm.. must be the result of some bioelectronic theory)

You remember you hadn' put it in charge the night before. So you rush into the room, take a good towel, wipe the water away from the steel body and put it in charge...

As you do that, the phone automatically turns on with vibration (wowww..) further, the phone gets into flight mode and waits still. You try to change it ... you press the middle button, it shows you the Switch off menu... so now u press the Switch off button (u knw.. human are always intelligent than the gadgets) .. you phone reacts to it by selecting the next option in that list.

You assume things are right and press the back button, ur phone switches off..

again u do the same.. u get the switch off menu.. nw, more carefully you press the green button (call button), the ph switches off.. u go on do this with all the buttons aailable, yet yur phone switches off...!

well... so my N6300 is dead... !! :(

*Moral* I don't know when i would give it for a service or rather will i.. so better get me @ 22420470 ..

:((

A stupid discussion

Mmmm.. So if you do have the frailty with ur brain that i hold.., that is.. Speaking to yourself (putting it into place, debating yourself), this must sound interesting to you..

This evening as i went for a walk, somewhere around half a kilometer from my place, it started to rain! Within seconds, before i could even wipe the water droplets off my specs, what i could see was people in my vicinity running off the road to the nearby stalls..

Me 1: Aww.. what is this? why are these people running? It just rained...
Me 2 (mind voice): oh come on.. they are afraid of rain...
Me 1: Afraid of what...? Rain? ha ha... is rain a vampire?
Me 2: Probably not. But they run to protect their valuables..
Me 1: amm.. that's a nice point..
Me 2: Okay, look at the nature, the rain. how beautiful it is!
Me 1: Am looking at it.. and the gal in that shop too... :P
Me 2: oh stop it man... u re drenched by the way.. do u really need to get to veils?
Me 1: well.. i do not.. i prefer walking, enjoying rain..
Me 2: hmm.. that's right.. proceed.. u have decided to drench in rain, anyway!
Me 1: (looking at the skies) hw beautiful this rain is!..
Me 2: I still wonder what rain is all about.
Me 1: awhhhohoho.. u wonder about the rain? Simple! listen up. You knw ocean..? Rivers? lakes? all these are basically water bodies. These water bodies get evaporated in hot sun. As a result the moisture content increases in the atmosphere. These when get saturated form wet clouds and they pour as rain.. isn't that easy? it is so simple as that!
Me 2: ahmm.. water gets evaporated from the sea..? do u have any kind of RO plant up there?
Me 1: ha ha. come on.. you don't..
Me 2: So hw is that the rain water is pure?
Me 1: Rain water is not 100% pure.. u have some minerals, more salt contents and even a few percentage of acids due to chemical reactions...
Me 2: mm.. so knowing all these you prefer getting soaked in rain?
Me 1: huh.. that is not so harmful...
Me 2: Oh.. so that means, you take bath in Koovam river water rite now and you give a damn to it?
Me 1: Whatttttt??
Me 2: Ya.. obvious.. even koovam has water .. and it... it gets evaporated..
Me 1: Oh my heck!! where should i .. ah.. there is a shop!

*Moral* : Do not discuss things with urself when you enjoy something! :(

Pluto Removed or not?

How many really remember this sentence.. My very educated mother just showed us nine planets? If you did, you probably know what you are doing. If you dint, you probably need to get back to KG's. :P

Well, this sentence is very famous in the 2nd or 3rd grades, if i remember right. The sentence helps to memorize the alignment order of the 9 planets in the universe.

Read it along.. My Very Educated Mother Just Showed Us Nine Planets .. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto..

Doesn't that look good? I wonder if Indian schools teach this way.. Anyway, at Prince they did not [citation needed :P].

And now, that is not the real problem. Am very worried about how the kiddies crossing the 2nd and 3rd grades will read the sentence as.. My very educated mother showed us nine..?

oh.. nine... what? ahh, pluto is nt a planet now for that matter and it cannot be included.

Yay.. if you are still teaching kids "There are nine planets in this universe", behold.. Good to you till the kids are unbeknownst. The International Astronomical Union in the mid of the year 2006 voted Pluto to be a dwarf planet and it was excluded from the nine planets.

"What....? Excluding a planet and that too Pluto? come on ... Pluto is the Planet discovered by America for the Americans.. You can't dare to exclude that.." and there was a rivalry possession that held when the exclusion poll was successful. you know.. this is why Americans are always strange! :P

Okay .. now the conclusion is Pluto is not a Planet according to the same science that gave us Pluto.. well. I do not mean 'Pluto' the dog of mickey mouse.. aww Disney..

Q no. 1. when will Pluto be removed from the TN state board books or be it in Matriculation's even..?

Q no. 2. Will there be a resistance from the 4th grade to 6th grade teachers of TN stating that the portions are not upto their knowledge since they had always learnt Pluto is one of the planets.?

Q no. 3. Will there have to be a special training session for those teachers who still aren't aware of what Pluto actually is?

.. many goes unanswered ... and the ultimate conclusion is.

*This will be Filed for Future Investigation and Reference*

probably there will be another planet peeking in by that time... :P

ThiruvachAgam

I may be pretty late in writing this. But, this really needs to be written here. Not in the very near past, but for a very long time I have been hearing the songs from the album ThiruvAchakam, a symphony created by the maestro Illayaraja. I can't find words to express the amount of feel this album gives. The album, entirely is based on ThriuvAchakam, sung in appreciation of the deity, lord Shiva by Manikavasagar. It was considered once that ThiruvachAkam sung by Manikavasagar, cannot be adapted to any other tunes and all that has been done by him is the extreme limit. Many singers, who have sung the ThiruvachAgam song have closely sung to what Manikavasagar did. But, that is not what you expect from a Maestro. Illayaraja had given a new light of essence to the most beautifully furnished versus of ThiruvachAgam. With a mixture of Symphony, ThiruvachAgam is now a treasure. The album consists of 6 songs in total, amazingly constructed with Music Engineering. No words can match the pleasure this album delivers. Though this is about a God, anybody who hears it shall be taken away from this earth. I bet!

an interesting prayer

this is very interesting..

“Welcome to this special report, I am Raju Reporter, along with camerawoman Isha, we are live from this small but picturesque town of Shantinagar, this small community is celebrating the 100^th Birthday of one of its resident Krishnan Lal. As you can see on your TV sets Mr. Lal has emerged from his home and is being wished by his family and friends.

I am sure all of you watching at home must be wondering if we have the wrong person, let me tell you that we have not made an error, it’s just that Mr. Lal at 100 could easily pass off as a 60 year old. Today on this occasion he will be sharing the secret to his longevity. Sources tell us that his secret is the power of prayer. He says one prayer daily, we are interested in finding out the prayer.

Religious leaders from this state are attending this function, a shrine of the God that he prays too will be build. Ram Narayan Mahadevan has promised to build a temple if Mr. Lal prays to a hindu god, Mohammad Islam is confident that he prays to Allah and will build a mosque and Father Anthony Gonsalves is certain that only Jesus can possess this power.

Mr. Lal has agreed to talk to us exclusively, I will be going down to the podium to interview him after he cuts the cake, courtesy of the local bakery.

The interview is on next after a short break and a word from the local bakery”

“Mr. Lal I am Raju Reporter from SNN – Shocking News Network. Happy 100^th Birthday”

“Thank you. I am honored and humbled by this gesture”

“Sir what is your secret”

“A prayer”

“Is it a special shloka?”

“No”

“Which God to you pray to?”

“There is but one God as far as I am concerned”

“Which one?”

“I call him God, he calls him Krishna, she calls him Jesus while they call him Allah”

The three religious leaders make a quick exit.

“Can you recite the prayer?”

“Sure, all I do is ask for diseases”

“Diseases?? Oh I get it, God never answers our prayers so you ask for diseases and thus you never get it”

“No I get my wish everyday, here let me recite the prayer

O Lord

Please give me diseases

Give me High Blood Pressure, such that my blood boils every time I see injustice in the society, let my pressure not return to normal until I have done all I could to fight against the injustice, until I have wiped a tear and healed the wound of a fellow human being.

Give me High Cholesterol, cholesterol of the soul whereby I cannot digest excess riches, I cannot indulge in excess luxuries, I eat only what I require, crave for all that is necessary, my condition may improve only when I share my riches with others, make my neighbor better off than me.

Give me Diabetes, my body should reject fake praises, false claim of love and support, I want to digest criticism, help me make the day of people around me a little sweeter, refrain from abusing others, shower a praise where necessary, give encouragement when needed all while boldly speaking the truth.

Give me loss of Speech and Hearing Ability, so that I do not speak ill of others, love is a feeling that one can experience, I have no use for the ears.

Give me loss of Vision, I don’t want to see the modern marvels, temples and shrines, riches, luxury or affluence. I want to see and feel the pain and suffering of others, want to share their misery, all I want to see is love and peaceful co-existence, those things are felt not seen, thus have no need for eyes.

Give me Alzheimer’s Disease, I want to forget all the pain that has been given to me by others, once I forget that I will forgive them. I want to be a decent human being and for that one needs a good heart, thus I have no use of memory.

Give me Heart Disease, make my heart stop beating the day I become numb or indifferent to the pain and suffering around me, the day I put myself ahead of others, for a heart that does not feel for others is useless for me.

God, give me these diseases and much more, I also ask for strength and blessings to continue on my mission, you can judge my actions, I might falter but let my intentions forever be pure” he pauses

“Dear Friends, I only pray once a day and then go on with my life, today I pray that may God give all of you the diseases I have”

Raju Reporter’s phone rings “Raju, this is the GM, this turned out to be a waste of time and our rating has plummeted, I want you to go to Mumbai right away, sources tell me that SRK has decided to quit smoking, I want our network to break the news, he sought the help of Addiction Clinic, I hope to get their sponsorship for our upcoming serial Bhabhi Ya Souten”.

Walk when you talk.. ?

Here goes one more of that creative themes and campaigns by Idea Cellular Services. Idea had always been creative in making promos equating human values and spirits. Now its new campaign, Walk when you Talk, with its brand ambassador Abhishek Bachchan, really walkss... Idea says walking while talking can reduce calories.. More interestingly it has put up a 'talk and walk - calorie' calculator in its web site. Check it out here..

http://www.walkwhenyoutalk.co.in/home.html

seriously there is nothing to share here. just another Idea! to keep my blog alive :P

Are we what we are?

Wondering about the world, about the people, about the nature, about the machines, about the buildings, about the roof tops, and not to mention about the buses, I was standing in a bus terminus, which I think is the best possible place where even Socrates can gain some exposure. Different people, some from the high caste, some poor, some flattery, all those food item sellers… The bus stand, as and always, at least in a worldly, democratic county like India can have a lot of scopes from which people can understand a lot.

I din know either, why I were starring at some people… I was in a visual perception of watching the Earth form probably Mars or Moon. With a feeling of my very own fellow people as nothing but small creatures like amoeba, I presumed I was in the Domain, of the world, if at all it had one! I really appreciate and kneel before the Nature.. How many people? Unique - as my friend use to say. Not just that was which in my mind, I still had a very few questions..

Time and situations decides man? Are we working under the knot of Time? What if time fails? So, are the people who were successful in life born with the blessings of time? Then why did the creator gave a Brain to each of us?

Many times, at many places, we are not what we are. We speak, we fight, we be polite, we dwindle depending on time. Is time the most successful thing in this universe? Blaming the fate, unknowing what it really is or with what pen it had been written, had been and still is the excuse given by people on failures. We behave according to situations, without understanding the complexity, with knowing the issues, expecting something, unanswered with what and how. You can call it a part of life. At least life in this particular generation is such.

Everyone of us are beggars in reality. The beggars of happiness. Some have wealth to buy the entire world but not the wealth to buy happiness. Where does this happiness comes from? The happiness you feel is you. Having said, the happiness is you, then you are the deciding authority. Sameness, as I would like to refer it as, is what we really require. Same at all the time. Easier said than done. When I feel I am the same anytime, I feel I am the best always. People gain confidence.

I would like to give a new perception regarding the statue of any temple here. I presume, people go to the temple, not because of just belief, problems, affairs, but I believe its because of the sameness, as I referred to it before. The statue is the same all time. Unless and until there are some RGB colored bulbs, glowed up to create some fantasy effect. Whenever we go to the temple, we see god as the way he is, he was and expecting the same. Expectation had merely or never failed here, in this case.

The same principle, sameness is what I wish everyone had… if that case prevails, let the unique person be unique all time. 100 million unique people with their same character, till death….

 

Paaaaaaaammmmmmmmm paaaaammmm --- waking up…. oh oh.. that's my bus. I need to leave now.

The Girl who touched ME

  That day, when i abdicated, and was worrying about the future, I felt a gentle little hand touching my shoulder, from behind. With lots of surprises, i looked behind, to find a young little girl, who merely looked like an angel holding a smile of trust, wisdom, power and victory.

  I had never known her before and never did i remember of seeing her anywhere. With 'n' number of questions and a dilemma about the beautiful little girl, something forced me to speak to her. My fruity conscious forced me to speak but my 'studied-mind' refused. 

  Gaining confidence with whatever i had, I uttered a word of silence to her. She smiled, as if she understood my word of silence, which took me aback. Still knowing the spirit within her, which i felt directly through my eyes into my mind, i concluded she isn't a mistake.

  With a dwindled thought, when i was about to speak to her, she questioned, "Why do you look worried?"

  I without knowing the sense of her intelligence, tried not to abandon. I replied in anguish, "Do I look worried?" And with a gorgeous smile, as if she understood my whole life, replied "I said -You are worried!" That little phrase and the delivery of her words, took me up into her. I was staggered when i thought and felt that I was in Love with her at that moment. Recognizing myself, I understood that it was just a feeling that i wanted to share my 'burdens of life' with her. She nodded positively, as if she heard what I thought and exclaimed, "That is why am here for!"

  Shocked at what she said, I looked at her face. Again the same Gorgeous and Victorious smile. "I know you well", she remarked, "And am here, to lift you up from your worries".  Astonishingly, I asked her, "You know me?" and she nodded again. Me, without knowing the fact or incapable of sensing her wisdom, agreed her for her nods. 

  I cross-checked that I weren't dreaming. No, I wasn't. With a forceful feeling of driving consciousness which wanted me to share everything with her, I asked, "How do I trust You?" Gently touching me, she replied, "You can trust me better than Nature." having never heard such trusty words, from anyone, till now, in my life, I said, "Okay. I will share my hardy' with you, which life gave me."

  With a sense of abhorrent life, I started ...... "Life had given me just nothing. When I was a kid, I din have the love of my parents. I was an Orphan. I dint have a home. I was not guided by people who are of my DNA. I was living abjected. I never had the pleasure of kids, for what they had. I was abased by people as an Orphan. I had none to take care of me, to love me, to watch me and to feed me. Days grew and i grew ---- 

 When i was 4 y/o, if i do hardly remember, St. Louis picked me up from the Corner-Street, the street where i used to 'BEG' people for a single paise. People who had BENZ car and a DOG inside the A/C car, did not like to see me at least as a child in the Human caste. They drove me off the car shouting for making their car dirty since i touched them..." 

             [ A pause with tears in eyes (or.. eyes in tears!) filled with horror and pain with a sore throat -------------------]

  "St. Louis the lord who saved me, took me to the St. Louis Orphan for kids, where my heart throbbed to see hundreds of kids, just like me at the age of varying 4-6 without parents or guardians. 

  Parent-less kids are far better, I had thought when I saw parents who orphan their kids cos he/she is lame, paralytic, dumb etc.

  St. Louis orphan made me a human out of a beggar, I din know, if begging was into my DNA... I wouldn't have started it as a profession at the age of 3, then... 

    [Tears block my eyes....]

  The young girl touched me and said, "I am here to hear you..." That gave me some undefinable confidence. More than what a girl can give to a boy.

  Still i continued, "My love for my parents ended there. I perceived some knowledge through a Govt. run Orphan school. My life was still miserable there. I had to clean the classrooms, Wash-clean the TOILETS, sweep the ground and much more. And only a few people who did not fare well in academics were selected to do these jobs. And, i was one, among the 3 in the entire school. I still managed to study hard, but life didn't me to. St. Louis met his end of the journey of life and for the sake of Finance, the Orphan was closed.

  Kids there were taken care of another Orphanage and the selection was made according to academics. Only 2 were thrown out. Me and the other guy. Lucky him, he managed to step in another Orphanage. But ME?? 

 [A SIGH!--]

  Back to the corner-street, where i was begging before. I thought of starting back my old profession ie., begging. But my instinct stopped me. I knew by myself that i am a hard worker. Deciding to work harder, i worked as a Milk-Boy form 5 a.m to 6 a.m and as Paper-boy from 6 a.m to 7 a.m. Rs. 5/- per day. That was sufficient, since I took food, only ONCE a day. Rejoining back at the Orphan School, i studied more harder before, over my potential to play GOD. Well, i was rewarded. I was the school topper for 12th. Later, with all those Rs. 3 saved all day, I joined the MARX UNIVERSITY of SCIENCE. 

  And now, i own a Computer Accessory Company with turn over of Millions, at the age of 28. 

But still, I have a duty left. The Orphanage - St. Louis Orphanage. I need to eradicate the orphans and make everyone Love life as I do now -!

  And with this said, when I turned back, I still saw the beautiful girl with the same smile standing besides me. She was more vivid than before. She exclaimed,

            You wanted to feel ME,

      You Understood ME, as I am,

     The best results come when you work harder and harder.

    And since you wanted to speak to me,

   Am before you and people call me.... 

--- LIFE!!

said the young girl and bid me a good-bye. I still wish I had her with me. Btw, I am 60y/o now, married. Have two children, one in US as S/W Engineer, and the other as CA in Australia. .... 

My life is beautiful and it had been always, since i started working harder.

  - And yeah, I am the President of St. Louis Orphanage now....

 

    

 

Making a day Beautiful ?!

 We live for years, months, weeks, days, minutes and seconds. We still don't ever know which was the beautiful day in our life. sometimes we feel a day, which we spent with friends or family or best ones in our life, the most beautiful. But this day is overcome by some other, when we spend a day with more good people. Okay now. Not getting into the history of the beautiful day ever, lets check out on how to live a day beautifully. 

             

 Ideas, thoughts and actions decide our personality and habit. Refinement of these, possibilities of analyzing people before we interact will help one to have a good day also gets he, good relations and good people. Some of the best times of a day should really be when we see, feel, hear good feelings and persons around and when we feel that we have value, when we feel that we are heard, considered. This can not only turn up our day beautiful but, giving such an opportunity to others also gives a possibility of making their day beautiful. 

 man as he is a social animal, never can get good ideas, all of himself alone at all times. Though he thinks, his is the best, he always should remember, the ultimate is not what he thinks. Chances, when given to others may make us realize what's more in the subject. Not only that, the second person feels he has done his best and would be more motivated. Now, chances alone don't speak all time. One more factor, that is more than a petrol for a car, is Appreciation. Two little words, "Good Job" can make yours and the other subjects day more beautiful. 

 Waking up early in the morning, going to job, returning, watching TV, back to bed had been our routine. Okay, this is unchangeable. But there is something that you can change, out of all these. As soon as you wake up, take the choice of living at your best this day. Wake up early in the morning, praying god or meditating can do wonders in a day. These little things, reduces the B.P. With the prayer add up a few sentences about the earth, the life in general. Just think "Let every life be happy. Let every life be fulfilled". And thats enough for a super-day startup.  More than this, while praying, give a try on this. Maintaining silence, concentrating your inner body should make you feel wonderful. Try absorbing your breath. Do not breath forcefully for this sake. Just absorb your normal breath.. don think of anything for a few min.. If you tend to be diverted, concentrate back on breathing. This can make you feel the change.

 Now, having started a new, beautiful day, the remaining time you spend must be logical, unsophisticated and too relaxed. Remember that you are not here as to die the next moment. Enjoy everything around. Find the beautiful people or .. should i say, the beauties of people around you.. Speak to them of what they like. Hold a smile always. Never flatter. Be adaptive. Analyze the person before you comment of anything. Ask a sorry if something goes wrong. Please if you need a help and Appreciate if you like what they did. 

Having people who trust you and be good to you is the only thing that can make you feel 'happy'. I mean happy in terms of heart. Not the materialistic happiness. 

remember, true happiness is what when you feel you have got something and you don want more of it. Speaking about materialistic happiness i said before, you need more of it.. More of gadgets, more of money and whatsoever. When you get a 10 billion, you need a 20 billion. When u get that, u again need more and this is endless and you are never going to be happy with what you get. But, "Hey you have don the job perfectly!" never requires anything more. Also a hug, irrespective of position, status, discipline [Not to say, i did not mention GENDER. Be carful wen u hug ladies.. ;)] can really turn the others on. You yourself will also feel so beautiful. The happiness you feel may be just for a minute, but mark me, that is what you call true happiness.

 okay, now back in the evening.  Nothing could be more good than a family group discussion.. Its lively.. I can no way discuss/express the enormous amount of pleasure you get in such talks... 

 And the end, before u sleep, the ever best feeling in life, of the day is when you rewind the day closing your eyes. Minute by minute, hour by hour.. I bet, you will have a good time. 

Making a day beautiful is how we take the day as - False! 

True - Making the day beautiful is, how we live the day as!

Think ... let me know what u feel...

Have good days ever ..
