DID U CALL ME?

 
 
 

GOD:    Hello. Did you call me?
 
Me:       Called you? No... Who is this?
 
GOD:    This is GOD. I heard your prayers. So I thought I will chat.
 
Me:       I do pray. Just makes me feel good. I am actually busy now. I am in the midst of something.
 
GOD:    What are you busy at? Ants are busy too.
 
Me:       Don't know. But I can’t find free time. Life has become hectic. It's rush hour all the time.
 
GOD:    Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you results. Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it.
 
Me:       I understand. But I still can’t figure out. By the way, I was not expecting YOU to buzz me on instant messaging chat.
 
GOD:    Well I wanted to resolve your fight for time, by giving you some clarity. In this net era, I wanted to reach you through the medium you are comfortable with.
 
Me:       Tell me, why has life become complicated now?
 
GOD:    Stop analyzing life. Just live it. Analysis is what makes it complicated.
 
Me:       Why are we then constantly unhappy?
 
GOD:    Your today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday. You are worrying because you are analyzing. Worrying has become your habit. That's why you are not happy.
 
Me:       But how can we not worry when there is so much uncertainty?
 
GOD:    Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional.
 
Me:       But then, there is so much pain due to uncertainty.
 
GOD:    Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.
 
Me:       If suffering is optional, why do good people always suffer?
 
GOD:    Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don't suffer. With that experience their life become better not bitter.
 
Me:       You mean to say such experience is useful?
 
GOD:    Yes. In every terms, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards.
 
Me:       But still, why should we go through such tests? Why can't we be free from problems?
 
GOD:    Problems are Purposeful Roadblocks Offering Beneficial Lessons (to) Enhance Mental Strength. Inner strength comes from struggle and endurance, not when you are free from problems.
 
Me:       Frankly in the midst of so many problems, we don't know where we are heading..
 
GOD:    If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Looking outside, you dream. Looking inside, you awaken. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides insight.
 
Me:       Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in the right direction. What should I do?
 
GOD:    Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing you rode ahead. You work with the compass. Let others work with the clock.
 
Me:       In tough times, how do you stay motivated?
 
GOD:    Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessing, not what you are missing.
 
Me:       What surprises you about people?
 
GOD:    When they suffer they ask, "why me?" When they prosper, they never ask "Why me" Everyone wishes to have truth on their side, but few want to be on the side of the truth.
 
Me:       Sometimes I ask, who am I, why am I here. I can’t get the answer.
 
GOD:    Seek not to find who you are, but to determine who you want to be. Stop looking for a purpose as to why you are here. Create it. Life is not a process of discovery but a process of creation.
 
Me:       How can I get the best out of life?
 
GOD:    Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.
 
Me:       One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.
 
GOD:    There are no unanswered prayers. At times the answer is NO.
 
Me:       Thank you for this wonderful chat. I am so happy to start the New Year with a new sense of inspiration.
 
GOD:    Well. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Don't believe your doubts and doubt your beliefs. Life is a mystery to solve not a problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live.
 


NEVER GIVE ANYONE THE AUTHORITY TO HURT YOU OR MAKE U SAD
HAPPINESS IS NOT WHAT YOU DO OR HOW YOU DO IT
IT'S THE WAY YOU THINK
SO THINK HAPPY, STAY HAPPY
KEEP SMILING!


With warm regards

Geolocation API which shows where the desktop is....

 
I am thrilled to announce that today we have enhanced the Gears Geolocation API so that developers can now securely locate users to within 200m accuracy in major desktop browsers in hundreds of cities around the world. Whether your users are Chrome, Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox or (soon) Opera users, you can now automatically deliver an experience that is tailored to their current location. For example, lastminute.com's new Radar application allows users to find nearby hotels, ITN's Google Earth mash up in Firefox allows users to see nearby news stories and Rummble's social discovery site allows users to automatically set their current location for friends to see.



When we originally proposed the Gears Geolocation API our goal was to make it easy for developers to deliver location enabled web sites on mobile phones. However we realized laptop users would benefit from location enabled web sites too. Today we are adding WiFi signals to the Geolocation API so that laptop users can benefit from location enabled web sites for the first time and mobile users from the increased accuracy. And because the Geolocation API is the same for developers in both desktop and mobile browsers you can even use the same code on both platforms!

In Chrome and Android, with Gears built in, you can deliver a location enabled web site without requiring your users to install a plug-in, but in other browsers they will need to go through a simple plug-in install process. We also submitted a simplified version of the Geolocation API as a WC3 specification and the upcoming Firefox 3.1 plans to support the W3C version directly. The Gears Geolocation API is completely free to developers and users through the default Google location provider.

To protect user privacy, the Gears Geolocation API server does not record user location. However, third party sites may do so, and we recommend that users only allow web sites they trust to access their location. Gears will always tell a user when your site wants to access their location for the first time and the user can either allow or deny your site permission. We recommend users check the privacy policy of your web site if they are in doubt as to how your site may use location information.

Vehicle to vehicle GPS for safe riding

honda-motorcycle-to-car-communication-system_UDm6o_54
Better awareness guarantees better safety, we know this. Given the number of road accidents we hear of today, society needs technology to shed refuge. Nothing requires a long wait nowadays; Honda has it before we realize – a Vehicle-to-Vehicle GPS system, which assures awareness and safety to motorcyclists – the most vulnerable on roads. Revealed at the CAR 2 CAR Communication Consortium event in Germany, the system developed aggregates data on the motorcyclists’ navigation device, informing them in advance on the direction, speed and distance of the other vehicles nearby.

What’s innovative:

Human perception is perhaps the biggest reason for road accidents. Honda’s GPS system aspire to make obvious the potential risks ahead, warning the exposed riders providing them with audible instructions of the peril through a Bluetooth to the in-built speakers in the helmet, possibly cutting on human errors.

Watch this:

Most road accidents are owing to the other driver’s slipups, we know. Therefore, no matter how safe you try keeping on the road, a bad day will have you in glitch. But if you were evident of the risk up-forth, the possibilities could minimize. The only reason we believe Honda’s safety system may well answer the questions of road safety, reducing on the number of reasons that fright all road users.

 

How to hide user account in XP

You can hide a user account from the Welcome screen in Windows XP, but it requires editing the Windows registry. Unfortunately, there is no easy way to do it unless you use a third party application. I’ll explain both ways in this article.

Note that when you hide a user account in Windows XP, it’s better if you are running Windows XP Professional rather than XP Home edition. Why? Well, once you hide an account, it will no longer show up on the main login screen, so how do you access it?

welcome screen xp

Well in XP Pro, you can press CTRL + ALT + DEL twice to get the old Windows 2000 login box and type in the user name and password to access the hidden user account. But if you have XP Home, this trick does not work and the only way to access your hidden account is to start the computer in Safe Mode, which is major pain if you want to use that account often.

So before doing this, make sure you are running XP Pro otherwise you will not have normal access to your account.

Hide User Account in XP

Step 1: Open the Windows Registry editor by clicking on Start, then Run, and typing in regedit.

Step 2: Navigate the the following registry key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\ SpecialAccounts\UserList

hide user account xp

Step 3: Now right-click on UserList and create a new DWORD value and name it exactly what the user name you want to hide is. For value, give it a value of 0. 0 Means hide the user account and 1 means show the user account.

As you can see from below, I added “Aseem Kishore” to the UserList as a new DWORD key with a value of 0. Make sure that the name you enter matches exactly with the user name displayed on the Welcome screen. So if you want to hide the Administrator account, type in “Administrator”, etc.

hide user name xp

Step 4: Close the registry editor and reboot your computer. Now press CTRL + ALT + DEL twice and you should be able to type in the user name and password to access the hidden account!

You can also download a free program from IntelliAdmin that will do the same thing for you, but make it much easier. Scroll all the way down to the bottom and you’ll see a link for the program.

xp user hide

It’s called XP User Hide and you can simply check off which user accounts you want to hide and it will modify the registry for you. You can learn more about User Acounts in Windows here. Enjoy!

Chandaryaan 1, India’s unmanned moon probe launched to seek the unknown

On OCT22nd, when most of India dozed off in the comfort of their cots, ISRO scientists at the PSLV slowly took us into the history books. A 44-meter, 316-ton PSLV-11 rocket carrying 1,380-kg Chandaryaan 1, the unmanned Indian lunar orbiter, was set in quest to unravel the hidden mysteries of the moon, from the Satish Dhawan Space Center at Sriharikota at 6:22am IST. In the next 12 days, amid all events, the orbiter will arrive at the desired lunar orbit – putting India in the lunar questers group, and setting on the operational period. Hauling 11 payloads, the Chandaryaan 1 will aspire to explore the moon over the next 2 years.

What’s innovative:

The robotic probe to the moon is India’s grand step forward in its objective to keep pace with the space investigating nations around the world. Chandaryaan 1 is powered by a single solar panel generating a maximum of 700 W. A 36 Ampere-Hour (Ah) Lithium-ion battery powers the spacecraft when the solar panel is not illuminated by the sun.

The main objectives of the Chandaryaan 1 - carrying 11 payloads, of which five were built in India itself, while the other six foreign-built – are: to explore the moon thoroughly, poles included for water, ice on the celestial body, plus search for Helium 3, an isotope in rarity on Earth, but vital for the energy needs of the future. Besides these, the spacecraft with all the high resolution equipment embedded will make all efforts to create a complete map of the moon’s chemical characteristics and its three dimensional topography.

In order to acquaint us, Chandaryaan 1 in due course of the journey, will send all detailed information available, back to Earth through its built-in transmitters, modified into radio waves to the ground antennas. DSN Antennas have been installed at various locations to keep note of the craft’s health and other aspects, while the spacecraft control center will keep it updated with the required chores.

Watch This:

Because India has never gone beyond Earth’s orbit, this mission to space holds precedence, not just for ISRO but for the entire nation. Spending approximately 380-crores for a space mission in a country where millions dwell in extreme poverty seems critical. But when nations follow the policy of limited reveal information – a country like India, that’s knocking on the doors of development, needs to be self equipped and well posted on all technological expertise when it comes to outer space.
