Gratitude and Patience – story

December 10, 2009 preetul Leave a comment

THE APPLE !!

Once there was a small kid on earth. One fine day it came to know that god is distributing apples to humans in his place at heaven. The kid was so happy to receive that news and it went with lot of enjoyment to heaven to get the apple from god. There was a big queue standing to get apple from god and this kid also joined in that queue. While it was standing, it was fully excited and thrilled for the fact that it is going to receive in person from god’s hands. Its turn too came and the kid showed its both the hands to receive apple. God gave the apple but unfortunately the tiny hands couldn’t hold that big apple. Apple fell down and got wasted in mud. The kid got so disappointed. The ministers near the god informed that if the kid likes to have an apple from god again then it has to again follow the queue. Having waited for so long the kid didn’t want to return back to earth with empty hands so it decided to wait again in the queue.

This time the queue has become even longer than the previous one. While waiting in queue, the kid could see lot of people who returns back with apple in hands and utmost satisfaction on their faces. The kid was so much disappointed and thought why me alone didn’t get the apple in hand when all others were easily able to get it. What is the sin I did that I alone should suffer like this. Now the kid was so scared that it should not miss the apple again. Again its turn came and god gave the apple to the kid’s hands and after giving the apple god spoke to the kid.

“My dear child, last time after giving you the apple only I noticed the apple I gave to you was a rotten apple and that’s why I made that to fell down from your hands. Having given you a rotten apple, I felt bad for you and I wanted to give you the best apple in the farm and that time the best apple in the farm was growing and that’s why I made you to wait such a long time in the queue. Here it is. Now the apple that you have in hand is ‘The Best’ apple in the farm till to date. Enjoy.”

MORAL :

Friends, sometimes it so happens, as even after we put our 100% dedication and commitment things may get delayed or things may go wrong. Believe that god has something great for us and that’s why this has happened. Always say, ‘Gratitude & patience is absolutely the best way to bring more in one’s life’.

Good news for all those who had to travel in autos and also for those who had to bear all the nonsense’s of these autowallas.

We have already informed the traffic police about the problems which we used to face as daily commuters and they promised to arrange one of their people to Interface building between 6pm – 8pm.

Moreover request you to sit in the auto rickshaw without a word and ask them to take to your place and if at all they refuse to do the same kindly do not come out but whilst sitting in the auto immediately dial traffic control room’s number 24937755 / 24937746 / 24937747. Within 5 minutes the traffic police will reach and they can suspend auto rickshaw licenses.

Few Friends have tried yesterday and today from Malad station and it worked out…. If you are anywhere in Mumbai the above numbers will help you.

Set up my connection manually ->
connect using broadband that requires username & password(PPoE) ->
Type ISP name(i.e. data1) ->

1. The steps are for Windows XP(although ther must be same for all Windows OS)
2. Make sure that your DSL LED is stable.
If it not than you cannot establesh the connection.
Btw, I am using Modem provided by ITI(ADSL 2+)

High heels dangerous to your health

September 30, 2009 preetul Leave a comment

Please tell this to ur respective GF / GF’s they will be impressed by this, thinking my BF is sooooooooooooooooo very much concern and caring lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Heels
The high price of high heels
High heels, whether they’re thick or thin, can cause problems in women’s knees, their ankles and their feet.

Researchers link high heels and knee osteoarthritis, a painful, degenerative joint disease.

High heels also cause foot problems
High heels can also result in a variety of foot problems, including metatarsalgia, which is pain in the ball of the foot. Another condition, called Morton’s neuroma, which is 10 times more common in women than men, is caused by a thickening of tissue around a nerve between the third and fourth toes.

The most healthy shoe
Surprisingly, flat shoes are not the ideal for overall foot and leg health. Low heels of one-half to three-quarters of an inch are good for both the front and back of the foot. Square-toed shoes with a roomy toe box help prevent the pinching and scrunching of the foot that can lead to lots of painful problems.

Your mobile number will start with ‘ 8′

September 30, 2009 preetul Leave a comment

If you happen to come across a mobile number starting with ‘8′, don’t mistake it for a typo. The department of telecommunications (DoT) has allowed four service providers to allot 10-digit numbers starting with ‘8′.

Reason: A swelling subscriber pool and an increasing number of service providers. Almost 15 years after mobile telephony came to India, the number of subscribers crossed 441 million in August-end, and is growing by 14 to 15 million every month.

Pre-empting a crunch, the DoT has allowed Vodafone Essar, Idea Cellular, Tata Teleservices and Reliance-ADAG (for CDMA and GSM services) to allot numbers beginning with ‘8′. Tata Teleservices has been given permission for the Mumbai circle.

In a 10-digit mobile number,
the first two numbers refer to the access code,
the next three to the mobile switching centre (MSC) code, and
the last five to the subscriber’s number.

Before allowing mobile numbers starting with ‘8′, the government was considering 11-digit numbers. But after discussions with telecos, the DoT formulated a framework that would cause minimum disturbance to existing mobile phone users.As per international norms, every mobile phone number in the country should have uniform number of digits. If it is to be an 11-digit format, all mobile numbers, irrespective of operator, will have to follow the same model.

The US is believed to have handled the problem better as it follows an integrated numbering plan for landline and mobile phones.

Change the full text index minimum word length with MySQL

August 14, 2009 preetul 3 comments

The MySQL full text index by default only indexes words which are 4 characters or longer, which means on a blog like mine if you search for “PHP” nothing will be returned. This post shows how to change minimum word length in MySQL so words or 3 characters (or even 2 if you want) can be indexed as well.
Edit the MySQL configuration file my.cnf which is usually located on a *nix box at /etc/my.cnf or /etc/mysql/my.cnf and add the following line under the [mysqld] section to change the default to 3:

ft_min_word_len = 3

If the ft_min_word_len value is already in the file then change the number to the minimum length required.

After making this change the MySQL server must be restarted for it to take effect. It is not possible to change the size with a set query (e.g. “SET ft_min_word_len = 3″ which will result in the error “#1193 – Unknown system variable ‘ft_min_word_len’”).

Now that the minimum word length has changed, and new or updated records will use the new minimum word length, but existing records will not be affected. To rebuild the full text index on a column for an example table called my_table, run this query:

REPAIR TABLE my_table QUICK;

Swine Flu

August 7, 2009 preetul Leave a comment

Hello buddies,
Since Pune city had just recorded the first swine flu death in India on 3 August, Swine flu spreads fear in Indian cities like Pune,Mumbai.Hoardings warning of the dangers of swine flu are everywhere in Pune.

Swine influenza (also called H1N1 flu, swine flu, hog flu, and pig flu) is an infection by any one of several types of swine influenza virus.

What is the swine flu?

The swine influenza A (H1N1) virus that has infected humans in the U.S. and Mexico is a novel influenza A virus that has not previously been identified in North America. This virus is resistant to the antiviral medications amantadine (Symmetrel) and rimantadine (Flumadine), but is sensitive to oseltamivir (Tamiflu) and zanamivir (Relenza). Investigations of these cases suggest that on-going human-to-human swine influenza A (H1N1) virus is occurring.

What are the symptoms of swine flu?
swine-flu

Although uncomplicated influenza-like illness (fever, cough or sore throat) has been reported in many cases, mild respiratory illness (nasal congestion, rhinorrhea) without fever and occasional severe disease also has been reported. Other symptoms reported with swine influenza A virus infection include vomiting, diarrhea, myalgia, headache, chills, fatigue, and dyspnea. Conjunctivitis is rare, but has been reported. Severe disease (pneumonia, respiratory failure) and fatal outcomes have been reported with swine influenza A virus infection. The potential for exacerbation of underlying chronic medical conditions or invasive bacterial infection with swine influenza A virus infection should be considered.
