Proud To Be An INDIAN

An American named Mark visited india. On his return to America, his Indian friend who was settled in America, enquired with him about India.

Here is how the conversation of Indian and American goes on…

Indian: Mark, how did u find my country?
American: I found India to be a great country with solid ancient history and immensely rich culture and heritage.

Indian: How did you find Indians?
American: Indians? who indians? I didn’t find or meet a single indian.

Indian: You didn’t find any Indian in India? What non-sense? Who else could u meet in india then?
American: Well! In Kashmir I met a kashmiri. In Punjab a Punjabi. A Bihari in Bihar. Marathi manoos in Mumbai. Tamilian, Malayali, Telugu and Kannadigas in South India. I even saw people agitating and fighting for separate regions on the basis of their language and culture.

Indian friend was embarrased but was patiently listening…

Mark (American) continued, “In some places, I met Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Jains, Buddhists and few others; but not a single Indian did i meet”.

Friends, what’s your reaction after reading this?

Do you still think that you are a Kashmiri, Bihari, Telugu or Marathi? Indeed we may be but we are nothing until we believe and understand that we are Indians.

Remember, we are Indians first. Call yourself an “Indian”.

Be proud of being an Indian!

Forward this mail to all Indians.

How to make a Wi-Fi connection more secured…

7 tips for working securely from wireless hot-spots… Wireless hotspots are changing the way people work. These wireless local area networks (LANs) provide high speed Internet connection in public locations as well as at home and need nothing more than a mobile PC such as a laptop or notebook computer equipped with a wireless card. In fact, hotspots are an everyday connection method for travelers and remote workers to browse the Internet, check their e-mail, and even work on their corporate networks while away from the office. Hotspots range from paid services, such as T-Mobile or Verizon Wireless, to public, free connections. Hot spots are everywhere, including: Coffee shops Restaurants Libraries Bookstores Airports Hotel lobbies But they all have one thing in common they are all open networks that are vulnerable to security breaches. And that means it’s up to you to protect the data on your PC. In this article, we cover a few tips to make working in public locations more secure. Try to choose more secure connections It’s not always possible to choose your connection type but when you can, opt for wireless networks that require a network security key or have some other form of security, such as a certificate. The information sent over these networks is encrypted, which can help protect your computer from unauthorized access. The security features of different networks appear along with the network name as your PC discovers them. Make sure your firewall is activated A firewall helps protect your mobile PC by preventing unauthorized users from gaining access to your computer through the Internet or a network. It acts as a barrier that checks all incoming information, and then either blocks the information or allows it to come through. All Microsoft Windows operating systems come with a firewall, and you can make sure it’s turned on. To activate the Windows Vista Firewall Click Start and then click Control Panel. In Control Panel, click Network and Internet. Under Windows Firewall, click Turn Windows Firewall on or off. Ensure that On is selected. To activate the Windows XP Firewall Click Start, and then click Control Panel. In Control Panel, click Network Connections. In the Network Connections window, under Network Tasks, click Change Windows Firewall Settings. In the Windows Firewall dialog box, on the General tab, ensure that On is selected. Monitor your access points Chances are that there are multiple wireless networks anywhere you’re trying to connect. These connections are all access points, because they link into the wired system that gives you Internet access. So how do you make sure you’re connecting to the right one? Simple—by configuring your PC to let you approve access points before you connect. Configure Windows Vista Access Points Windows Vista takes the guesswork out of connecting to hotspots because you are automatically prompted to approve new connections. In addition, after you approve a connection, you assign it a profile for future use. Configure Windows XP Access Points Click Start, click Control Panel, and then click Network Connections. Right-click Wireless Network Connection, and then clickProperties. On the Wireless Networks tab, make sure that the Use Windows to configure my wireless network settings check box is selected. Under Preferred networks, make sure that the name of the network that you want to connect to is highlighted, and then click Advanced. Click Access point (infrastructure) network only, and then click Close. Disable file and printer sharing File and printer sharing is a feature that enables other computers on a network to access resources on your computer. When you are using your mobile PC in a hotspot, it’s best to disable file and printer sharing when it’s enabled, it leaves your computer vulnerable to hackers. Remember, though, to turn this feature back on when you return to the office. Disable file and printer sharing in Windows Vista Click Start, and then click Control Panel. Click Network and Internet, and then click Network and Sharing Center. Under Sharing and Discovery, click the arrow next to File sharing, click Turn off file sharing, and then click Apply. Click the arrow next to Printer sharing, click Turn off printer sharing, and then click Apply. Disable file and printer sharing in Windows XP Click Start, and then click Control Panel. Click Security Center, and then click Windows Firewall. Click the Exceptions tab, and then under Programs and Services, clear the File and Printer Sharing check box. Make your folders private When the folders on your mobile PC are private, it’s more difficult for hackers to access your files. To make a folder private in Windows Vista Windows Vista not only makes folders private by default, but it also requires passwords for shared folders. As a result, you’re already covered! But if you want to double-check, simply right-click on the folder in question, and selectProperties. On the Security tab, you can review the set permissions. To make a folder private in Windows XP Click Start, and then click My Computer. Click the drive where Windows is installed, and then clickDocuments and Settings. Open your user folder, right-click the folder that you want to make private, and then click Properties. On the Sharing tab, click Do no share this folder, and then clickOK. Repeat the steps above for each folder that you want to make private. Encrypt your files You can protect your files further by encrypting them, which requires a password to open or modify them. Because you must perform this procedure on one file at a time, consider password-protecting only the files that you plan to use while working in a public place. Consider completely removing sensitive data from your notebook PC If you’re working with extremely sensitive data, it might be worth taking it off your notebook PC altogether. Instead, save it on a corporate network share and access it only when necessary. This way, you have multiple safeguards in place. A few simple precautions can help make working in public places more secure. And by selecting the best connections and adjusting settings, you can enjoy productive and safe work sessions no matter where you are. Have a safe n secure browsing on these lines.

we forget tomorrow. But, give it a shot anyway. 

English is really crazy

There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins were not invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.

And why is it that writers write, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn’t the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So, one moose, 2 meese? One index, two indices? Is cheese the plural of choose?

If teachers taught, why didn’t preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?

In what language do people recite at a play, and play at a recital?

Ship by truck, and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? Park on driveways and drive on parkways? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell another?

When a house burns up, it burns down. You fill in a form by filling it out, and an alarm clock goes off by going on.

When the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it, but when I wind up this essay, I end it.
 
why we call it a BUILDING …when it is already BUILT…!!!

Think about it…

Human Blood Pressure Range Diagram

The 1st Number: Systolic pressure is the pressure generated when the heart contracts .

The 2nd Number: Diastolic pressure is the blood pressure when the heart is relaxed.

What is Normal Blood Pressure ? Buy and use a blood pressure monitor.

Compare your BP reading with the numbers on the chart above. Draw a line from your systolic pressure to your diastolic pressure.

Is the slope of the line about the same as shown on the chart? Where do YOU fit in? What are your risk factors?

Are your blood pressure readings within the normal blood pressure range? Should you take anti-hypertension medication to lower your blood pressure?

Normal human daily Blood Pressure Range can vary widely, so any single blood pressure monitor reading is not reliable. BP monitor readings must be taken at different times of day, to determine AVERAGE blood pressure over time.

What is important is your AVERAGE BP, or MAP (Mean Arterial Pressure) over time. Or, where are those numbers sitting MOST of the time?

Normal MAP is about 93 mm of mercury.
