You Can't Fix Stupid

noreply@blogger.com (youthindia) — Sun, 22 Feb 2009 14:08:00 +0000

I am totally amazed at the stories I hear about the silly, (stupid), things that people do.

The following are examples placed in order of stupidity......

EIGHTH PLACE

In Detroit , a 41-year-old man got stuck and drowned
in two feet of water after squeezing head first
through an 18-inch-wide sewer grate to retrieve his
car keys.

SEVENTH PLACE

A 49-year-old San Francisco stockbroker, who
"totally zoned when he ran," accidentally jogged off
a 100-foot high cliff on his daily run.

SIXTH PLACE

Buxton , NC : A man died on a beach when an
8-foot-deep hole he had dug into the sand caved in
as he sat inside it. Beach-goers said Daniel Jones,
21, dug the hole for fun, or protection from the
wind, and had been sitting in a beach chair at the
bottom Thursday afternoon when it collapsed, burying
him beneath 5 feet of sand. People on the beach, on
the outer banks, used their hands and shovels,
trying to claw their way to Jones, a resident of
Woodbridge , VA , but could not reach him. It took
rescue workers using heavy equipment almost an hour
to free him while about 200 people looked on. Jones
was pronounced dead at a hospital.

FIFTH PLACE

Santiago Alvarado, 24, was killed in Lompoc , as he
fell face-first through the ceiling of a bicycle
shop he was burglarizing. Death was caused when the
long flashlight he had placed in his mouth (to keep
his hands free) rammed into the base of his skull as
he hit the floor.

FOURTH PLACE

Sylvester Briddell, Jr., 26, was killed in
Selbyville , Del , as he won a bet with friends who
said he would not put a revolver loaded with four
bullets into his mouth and pull the trigger.

THIRD PLACE THIS ONE SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIRST PLACE

The following mind-boggling attempt at a crime spree
in Washington , DC appeared to be the robber's first
(and last), due to his lack of a previous record of
violence, and his terminally stupid choices:

1. His target was H&J Leather & Firearms; A gun shop
specializing in handguns.
2. The shop was full of customers - firearms customers.
3. To enter the shop, the robber had to step around
a marked police patrol car parked at the front door.
4. A uniformed officer was standing at the counter,
having coffee before work. Upon seeing the officer,
the would-be robber announced a hold-up, and fired a
few wild shots from a target pistol.
The officer and a clerk promptly returned fire, the
police officer with a 9mm GLOCK 17, the clerk with a
50 DESERT EAGLE, assisted by several customers who
also drew their guns, several of whom also drew and
fired. The robber was pronounced dead at the scene
by Paramedics. Crime scene investigators located 47
expended cartridge cases in the shop. The subsequent
autopsy revealed 23 gunshot wounds. Ballistics
identified rounds from 7 different weapons. No one
else was hurt in the exchange of fire.

HONORABLE MENTION

Paul Stiller, 47, was hospitalized in Andover
township, NJ, and his wife Bonnie was also injured,
when a quarter-stick of dynamite blew up in their
car. While driving around at 2 AM, the bored couple
lit the dynamite and tried to toss it out the window
to see what would happen, but apparently failed to
notice the window was closed.

RUNNER UP:

TACOMA , WA . Kerry Bingham had been drinking with
several friends when one of them said they knew a
person who had bungee-jumped from the Tacoma Narrows
Bridge in the middle of traffic. The conversation
grew more heated and at least 10 men trooped along
the walkway of the bridge at 4:30 AM Upon arrival
at the midpoint of the bridge they discovered that
no one had brought a bungee rope.

Bingham, who had continued drinking, volunteered and
pointed out that a coil of lineman's cable lay near
by. One end of the cable was secured around
Bingham's leg and the other end was tied to the
bridge. His fall lasted 40 feet before the cable
tightened and tore his foot off at the ankle. He
miraculously survived his fall into the icy salt
water and was rescued by two nearby fishermen.

"All I can say" said Bingham, "is that God was watching
out for me on that night. There's just no other
explanation for it." Bingham's foot was never
located.

AND THE WINNER...

Overzealous zookeeper Friedrich Riesfeldt
( Paderborn , Germany ) fed his constipated elephant
Stefan 22 doses of animal laxative and more than a
bushel of berries, figs and prunes before the
plugged- up pachyderm finally let it fly, and
suffocated the keeper under 200 pounds of poop!
Investigators say ill-fated Friedrich, 46, was
attempting to give the ailing elephant an olive oil
enema when the relieved beast unloaded on him. "The
sheer force of the elephant's unexpected defecation
knocked Mr. Riesfeldt to the ground where he struck
his head on a roc k and lay unconscious as the
elephant continued to evacuate his bowels on top of
him" said flabbergasted Paderborn police detective
Erik Dern. With no one there to help him, he lay
under all that dung for at least an hour before a
watchman came along, and during that time he
suffocated. It seems to be just one of those freak
accidents that proves... "S __ t happens."

'Imagine life as a game in which you're juggling
some five balls in the air.

You name them - work, family, health,friends & spirit

and you're keeping all of these in the air.

You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball.
If you drop it, it will bounce back.

But the other four Balls - family, health, friends and spirit - are made
of glass. If you drop one of these; they will be irrevocably scuffed,
marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered.

They will never be the same. You must understand that
and strive for Balance in your life.'

Marketing strategies

noreply@blogger.com (youthindia) — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 06:27:00 +0000

Marketing strategies

A Professor was explaining marketing & advertising concepts to the Students : -

1. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: "I am very rich. Marry me!" - That's Direct Marketing

2. You're at a party with a bunch of friends and see a gorgeous girl. One of your friends goes up to her and pointing at you says: "He's very rich. Marry him." - That call Advertising

3. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and get her telephone number. The next day, you call and say: "Hi, I'm very rich. Marry me." - That's Telemarketing

4. You're at a party and see gorgeous girl. You get up and straighten your tie, you walk up to her and pour her a drink, you open the door (of the car) for her, pick up her bag after she drops it, offer her ride and then say:"By the way, I'm rich. Will you marry me?" - That's Public Relations

5. You're at a party and see gorgeous girl. She walks up to you and says: "You are very rich! Can you marry me?" - That is Branding

6. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: "I am very rich. Marry me!" She gives you a nice hard slap on your face. That's Customer Feedback

7. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and say: "I am very rich. Marry me!" And she introduces you to her husband. - That's demand and supply gap

8. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say anything, another person come and tell her: "I'm rich. Will you marry me?" and she goes with him - That's Competition eating your market share

9. You see a gorgeous girl at a party. You go up to her and before you say: "I'm rich, Marry me!" your wife arrives. That's restriction for entering new markets.

Surabhi: Renuka Sahane and Siddharth

Then were 'Mungerilal ke hasin sapane' and 'karamchand'...'Vikram Betal', etc.

How did one survive growing up in the 70's, 80's and 90's?

We had no seatbelts, no airbags and sitting in the back of a truck was a treat…

Our baby prams had the most gorgeous lead based colours…

No such thing as tamper proof bottle tops…

Opening kitchen cupboards was a breeze… as safety locks were unheard off…

Cycling was like a breath of fresh air…

No safety helmets, knee pads or elbow pads, with plenty of cardboards between spokes to make it sound like a motorbike…

When thirsty we only drank tap water, bottled water was still a mystery…

We kept busy collecting bits & pieces so we could build all sort of things … and we were fearless on our bikes even when the brakes failed going downhill…

We were showing off how tough we are, by how high we could climb trees & then jumping down….It was great fun….

We could stay out to play for hours, as long as we got back before dark, in time for dinner…

We walked to school, or sometimes we even rode our bike.

We had no mobile phones, but we always managed to find each other….

How? No one knows…

We lost teeth, broke arms & legs, we got cuts and bruises and bloody noses…. nobody complained as we had so much fun, it wasn't anybody's fault, only ours

We ate everything in sight, cakes, bread, chocolate, ice-cream, sweet sugary drinks, yet, we stayed skinny by fooling around.

And if one of us was lucky to find a 1 litre coca cola bottle we all had a swag from it & guess what? Nobody picked up any germs...

We did not have Play Stations, MP3, Nintendo's, I-Pods, Video games, 99 Cable TV channels, DVD's, Home Cinema, Mobile phones, Home Computers, Laptops, Chat-rooms, Internet, etc ... BUT, we had REAL FRIENDS!!!!

We called on friends to come out to play, never rang the doorbell, just went around the back…

We loved being let loose in the big bad world…without bodyguards…

We played with sticks and stones, played cowboys and Indians, doctors and nurses, hide and seek, soccer games, over and over again…

When we failed our exams we were given a second chance by simply repeating the same grade…without visiting psychiatrists, psychologists or counselors…

Such were the days…

We had freedom, success, disappointments and responsibilities. ...

Most of all, we learned to respect others…

Are YOU from that generation?? If that's the case, email this to all your friends from the same era…

Maybe this message will help them forget the stress that surrounds us these days….and just for a few moments puts a smile to their faces as they remember what life was really like in the good old days……

HAVE A SUPER DAY! with Golden Days Value!!!!!!!!!

Interesting Interview Ques.-Answers

noreply@blogger.com (youthindia) — Tue, 30 Sep 2008 05:30:00 +0000

In an interview how perception is being judged. Here is the example of it...

Question 1 :
You are driving along in your car on a Wild, stormy night, it’s raining heavily, when suddenly you pass by a Bus stop, and you see three people waiting for a bus :

ü An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.

ü An old friend who once saved your life.

ü The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.

Which one would you choose to offer a ride to, Knowing very well that there could only be one passenger in your car?

This is a moral/ethical dilemma that was once actually used as part of a job application.

ü You could pick up the old lady, because she is going to die, and thus you should save her first;

ü Or you could take the old friend because he once saved your life, and this would be the perfect chance to! Pay him back.

ü However, you may never be able to find your perfect mate again.

The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming up with his answer. Guess what was his answer? He simply answered :

"I would give the car keys to my Old friend and let him take the lady to the hospital. I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the partner of my dreams."

Sometimes, we gain more if we are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations. Never forget to "Think Outside of the Box."

Question 2 :
What will you do if I run away with your sister?"
The candidate who was selected answered; I will not get a better match for my sister than you sir."

Question 3 :
Interviewer (to a student girl candidate) - What is one morning you woke up & found that you were pregnant.

Girl - I will be very excited and take an off, to celebrate with my husband.
Normally an unmarried girl will be shocked to hear this, but she managed it well. Why I should think it in the wrong way, she said later when asked.

Question 4 :
Interviewer : He ordered a cup of coffee for the candidate. Coffee arrived kept before the candidate, then he asked that What is before you?

Candidate : Instantly replied "Tea."

He got selected.

You know how and why did he say "TEA" then he knows very well that coffee was kept before.
(Answer: The question was "What is before you =U - alphabet) Reply was "TEA" (T - alphabet) Alphabet "T" was before Alphabet U."

Question 5 :
Where Lord Rama would have celebrated his "First Diwali"? People will start thinking of Ayodya, Janaki's place, Lanka etc...
But the logic is, Diwali was a celebrated as a mark of Lord Krishna Killing Narakasura. In Dusavataar, Krishnavathaar comes before Raamavathaar. So, Lord Rama would not have celebrated the Diwali at all!

Question 6 : The interviewer asked to the candidate "This is your last question of the interview. Please tell me the exact position of the center of this table where u has kept your files."

Candidate confidently put one of his fingers at some point at the table and told that this was the central point at the table. Interviewer asked how did u get to know that this being the central point of this table, then he answers quickly that sir u r not likely to ask any more question, as it was the last question that u promised to ask.....
And hence, he was selected as because of his quick-wittedness.
This is what Interviewer expects from the Interviewee.

THE BANANA TEST [C1] & Humour

noreply@blogger.com (youthindia) — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 03:32:00 +0000

There is a very, very tall coconut tree and there are 4 animals,

a Lion, a Chimpanzee, a Giraffe, and a Squirrel, who pass by.

They decide to compete to see who is the fastest to get a banana off the tree.

Who do you guess will win?

Your answer will reflect your personality.

So think carefully . . .. Try and answer within 30 seconds

Got your answer?

Now scroll down to see the analysis.

If your answer is:

Lion = you're dull.
Chimpanzee = you're a moron.
Giraffe = you're a complete idiot.
Squirrel = you're just hopelessly stupid.
A COCONUT TREE DOESN'T HAVE BANANAS.
Obviously you're stressed and overworked.
You should take some time off and relax!
Try again next year.

Dukhi Rehnay Ki Aadat Ho Gai Hai
Mager Ab Gungunana chahta Hoon

Puraney Sab Taluq Toor Ker Ab
Nai Duniya Basana Chahta Hoon
Woh Nazmen Paaon Se Lipti Hain Lakin
Main Un sey Jaan Churana Chahta Hoon

Woh Sab Tohfey Woh sookhey Phool Sarey
Main Ab Un Ko Jalana Chahta Hoon
Main Utna Pass Aata Hoon Tumharey
Main Jitna Door Jana Chahta Hoon

Maery Hamdam, Haqeeqat Hai Yeh Meri
Main Teray Pass Aana Chahta Hoon
Ubhrney Ki Koi Khahish Nahin Hai
K Ab Main Doob Jana Chahta Hoo

MBA students outsourcing

Recently two days back i got to read an article which is pasted below, lets see whats the article all about:

MBA students outsourcing project works

This is the Head Lines of Hindustan Times of March 13 2008

All the dazzling young people whom parents cite as academic role models and who walk out of business schools B-School-Isnt-What-It-Used-To-Be with fancy salaries may not be working as hard as you imagine.

Many management students have started ‘outsourcing’ their project work. A new breed of faceless entrepreneurs who have caught the pulse of a growing demand in India’s rapidly proliferating management institutes — which mass-produce managers for the burgeoning Indian economy — are providing students with readymade classroom projects for a fee.

Just place an order for a project over the phone. When this Hindustan Times reporter posed as a student and called up Mahasagar Publications, a young woman who identified herself as Mahalakshmi said: “You can send us an e-mail on the project topic, mention the number of pages needed and send a scanned copy of the guidelines framed by your college. A 50-page project will take 10 days and cost Rs 4,000.”

Veena Ravishankar of Mahasagar Publications said they get 150-200 calls a month from students. There is a shortcut for students who do not believe in exclusivity of project matter or do not want to shell out money. They simply get on to the Internet and download projects. It may be the one a senior in college has posted.

The trick, however, is that students must be willing to share their own work and first upload their projects.

Rima Sharma (name changed) had to first “contribute” her work on insurance on www.managementparadise.com before downloading a project on stock markets. The website has a ‘project helpline’ where students put forth their request and a ‘project hub’ from which projects can be downloaded.

“There is no time to pore over big fat books. I don’t mind downloading and sharing projects as long as I get in-depth information, one that I can copy-paste and submit in class,” said Sharma, who is pursuing financial management from NMIMS University.

But the vice-chancellor of the university, NM Kondap, termed it “outright unethical”. He said: “The purpose of the project is a value-addition to the existing knowledge and it is a learning process. These students are damaging their own careers in the long term. Even during campus placements, companies will seriously interrogate students about the projects.”

He said his college had not encountered such practices. “Every college must take action according to its own guidelines,” he added. With 1,136 registered members, Share Term Papers - Index | Download Placement Papers | Online Project Making Help (STP) launched in November 2007, seems to be another hit with people downloading research projects and case studies to even dissertations and theses. A project on mutual funds was downloaded 11 times while a dissertation on ‘customer loyalty, customer satisfaction and profitability’ saw 72 downloads.

Stating that the site aims to provide a “single platform” for information sharing and helping one another make projects, STP’s global moderator Anurag Mehta, in an e-mail interview, told Hindustan Times: “Students are a little inclined towards referring to other’s projects because they provide actual practical facts and secondary data, which books can’t. Mostly, books limit students to only theoretical knowledge.” Mehta said he did not feel it was unethical to use these kinds of websites. “A student should utilise all the resources he/she can refer to make his/her projects. Calling information-sharing websites unethical is like calling Wikipedia unethical,” he said.

Juggling with work during the day and a part-time MBA in the evening, Nagesh Patil (name changed) was introduced to www.managementparadise.com when he began to feel the deadline pressure for project submission. “You get project material according to your requirement. It saves a lot of time. On search engines, one has to sift through a lot of irrelevant information. The website is like a good friend,” said the marketing student of KJ Somaiya College of Management.

So this was the article in which the reporter has just critisized the upcoming managementsites, do you guys think we the youth of the nation are so lazy, or is it just an help that this sites are providing us, just like a teacher who guides us through our success journey. As a management student , I myself had seen howmuch difficulties a student faces while making the projects or while gathering the notes as most of the colleges dont have good faculties. It is the faculties work to help a student , to guide him/her in making a project or giving him the support or the notes which are essential but they fail to do so, at this point this management sites lend a help to them, they appear as a ray of light in a dark room, the forums helps in discussions where the student can get their doubts solved from their seniors or other students, as in this manner this sites act as a boon not as a curse.

And the rest I leave upon you, coz you are the next big thing of this nation, and you can very well decide, that you are cheating or doing a write thing.

Kalyan youth shows train bullies who’s boss

noreply@blogger.com (youthindia) — Sat, 15 Mar 2008 02:26:00 +0000

24-yr-old Raju Pillai gets bullies arrested after he was hit and pushed off train by them on Tuesday for standing at ‘their spot’

NILESH NIKADE

Afew months ago, a scuffle over standing on the footboard at the door of a local train compartment resulted in the death of a Dombivli resident — he was thrown out by other commuters. In a similar incident on Tuesday, a youth from Kalyan almost became another casualty after he was hit and pushed out of the train by a group of commuters for standing ‘at their regular spot’.
But this young man refused to be a silent victim and got one of them behind bars.
Raju Pillai, 24, an employee with a bank and resident of Kalyan, travels to Nerul every day. On Tuesday, Pillai boarded the 8.22 am fast local from Kalyan and managed to find a spot near the compartment door. Pillai said, “At Dombivli, a group of seven men boarded from the track side of the train and started pushing commuters who were standing near the door telling us to get off at Thane, the next station. Suddenly, one of them hit me on the face with his bag claiming that it was the group’s regular spot and that I should move.”
When Pillai argued that he was there first, the group started abusing and threatening him. “I objected to their bullying and said I had equal right to stand at the spot. They said it was their regular train and their reserved space, as they had been travelling on it for 16 years. One of them then held my arms. I was scared he would throw me off the train,” Pillai said. He decided it was prudent to keep his cool but was shocked when the men pushed him off the train at Thane.
But Pillai was not about to let the train bullies get away with it. On Wednesday, he approached the Dombivli Government Railway Police. B P Kardel, Senior Police Inspector, Dombivli GRP, said, “We decided to set a trap for the group on Thursday and asked Pillai to identify the group members. Our men in civil clothes waited for the fast train to arrive. As soon as the group tried to climb from the opposite direction, we caught them on the tracks.”
However, of the seven men detained, only Naresh Shetty, a Dombivli resident, was booked for manhandling Pillai.
A K Sharma, Commissioner GRP has asked commuters to file complaints against such groups. “We promise to take action against such. We can be reached on 23759201.”

INDIANS ELECT THEIR LEADERS

noreply@blogger.com (youthindia) — Thu, 06 Mar 2008 05:17:00 +0000

This is written by a Pakistani journalist.. ........
Capital suggestion
By Dr Farrukh Saleem
12/9/2007

Here's what is happening in India:

The two Ambani brothers can buy 100 percent of every
company listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE) and
would still be left with $30 billion to spare. The four
richest Indians can buy up all goods and services
produced over a year by 169 million Pakistanis and still
be left with $60 billion to spare. The four richest
Indians are now richer than the forty richest Chinese.

In November, Bombay Stock Exchange's benchmark Sensex
flirted with 20,000 points. As a consequence, Mukesh
Ambani's Reliance Industries became a $100 billion
company (the entire KSE is capitalized at $65 billion).
Mukesh owns 48 percent of Reliance.

In November, comes Neeta's birthday. Neeta turned f
orty-four three weeks ago. Look what she got from her
husband as her birthday present: A sixty-million dollar
jet with a custom fitted master bedroom, bathroom with
mood lighting, a sky bar, entertainment cabins, satellite
television, wireless communication and a separate cabin
with game consoles. Neeta is Mukesh Ambani's wife, and
Mukesh is not India's richest but t he second richest.

Mukesh is now building his new home, Residence Antillia
(after a mythical, phantom island somewhere in the
Atlantic Ocean). At a cost of $1 billion this would be
the most expensive home on the face of the planet. At 173
meters tall Mukesh's new family residence, for a family
of six, will be the equivalent of a 60-storeyed building.
The first six floors are reserved for parking. The
seventh floor is for car servicing and maintenance. The
eighth floor houses a mini-theatre. Then there's a health
club, a gym and a swimming pool. Two floors are reserved
for Ambani family's guests. Four flo ors above the guest
floors are family floors all with a superb view of the
Arabian Sea. On top of everything are three helipads. A
staff of 600 is expected to care for the family and their
family home.

In 2004, Indiabecame the 3rd most attractive foreign
direct investment destination. Pakistanwasn' t even in
the top 25 countries. In 2004, the United Nations, the
representative body of 192 sovereign member states, had
requested the Election Commission of India to assist the
UN in the holding elections in Al Jumhuriyah al Iraqiyah
and Dowlat-e Eslami-ye Afghanestan. Why the Election
Commission of Indiaand not the Election Commission of
Pakistan? After all, Islamabadis closer to Kabulthan is
Delhi.

Imagine, 12 percent of all American scientists are of
Indian origin; 38 percent of doctors in Americaare
Indian; 36 percent of NASA scientists are Indians; 34
percent of Microsoft employees are Indians; and 28
percent of IBM employees are Indians.

For the record: Sabeer Bhatia created and founded
Hotmail. Sun Microsystems was founded by Vinod Khosla.
The Intel Pentium processor, that runs 90 percent of all
computers, was fathered by Vinod Dham. Rajiv Gupta
co-invented Hewlett Packard's E-speak project. Four out
of ten Silicon Valley start-ups are run by Indians.
Bollywood produces 800 movies per year and s ix Indian
ladies have won Miss Universe/Miss World titles over the
past 10 years.

For the record: Azim Premji, the richest Muslim
entrepreneur on the face of the planet, was born in
Bombayand now lives in Bangalore.India now has more than
three dozen billionaires; Pakistanhas none (not a single
dollar billionaire) .

The other amazing aspect is the rapid pace at which India
is creating wealth. In 2002, Dhirubhai Ambani, Mukesh and
Anil Ambani's father, left his two sons a fortune worth
$2.8 billion . In 2007, their combined wealth stood at
$94 billion. On 29 October 2007, as a result of the stock
market rally and the appreciation of the Indian rupee,
Mukesh became the richest person in the world, with net
worth climbing to US$63.2 billion (Bill Gates, the
richest American, stands at around $56 billion).
Indians and Pakistanis have the same Y-chromosome
haplogroup. We have the same genetic sequence and the
same genetic marker (namely: M124). We have the sam e DNA
molecule, the same DNA sequence. Our culture, our
traditions and our cuisine are all the same. We watch the
same movies and sing the same songs. What is it that
Indians have and we don't?

A Hindi Poem On the Last Day of School/College.

noreply@blogger.com (youthindia) — Thu, 06 Mar 2008 05:06:00 +0000

Raah dekhi thi is din ki kabse,
Aage ke sapne saja rakhe the naajane kab se.
Bade utavle the yahaan se jaane ko ,
Zindagi ka agla padaav paane ko .

Par naa jane kyon ...Dil mein aaj kuch aur aata hai,
Waqt ko rokne ka jee chahta hai.

Jin baton ko lekar rote the Aaj un par hansi aati hai ,
Na jaane kyon aaj un palon ki yaad bahut aati hai .

Kaha karte the ...Badi mushkil se char saal seh gaya,
Par aaj kyon lagta hai ki kuch peeche reh gaya.

Na bhoolne wali kuch yaadein reh gayi,
Yaadien jo ab jeene ka sahara ban gayi.

Meri taang ab kaun kheencha karega ,
Sirf mera sir khane kaun mera peecha karega.
Jahaan 2000 ka hisaab nahin wahaan 2 rupay ke liye kaun ladega,

Kaun raat bhar saath jag kar padega ,
KAUN MERI gaadi mujse pooche bina lejayega ,
Kaun mere naye naye naam banayega.
Mein ab bina matlab kis se ladoonga,
Bina topic ke kisse faalto baat karoonga ,

Kaun fail hone par dilasa dilayega,
Kaun galti se number aane par gaaliyaan sunayega .

Tapri mein Chai kis ke saath piyoonga ,
Wo haseen pal ab kis ke saath jiyoonga,

Aise dost kahaan milenge Jo khai mein bhi dhakka de aayein,
Par fir tumhein bachane khud bhi kood jayein.

Mere gaano se pareshaan kaun hoga ,
Kabhi muje kisi ladki se baat karte dekh hairaan kaun hoga ,

Kaun kahega saale tere joke pe hansi nahin aai ,
Kaun peeche se bula ke kahega..aage dekh bhai .

Movies mein kiske saath dekhhonga,
Kis ke saath boring lectures jheloonga ,

Bina dare sachi rai dene ki himmat kaun karega.

Achanak bin matlab ke kisi ko bhi dekh kar paglon ki tarah hansna,
Na jaane ye fir kab hoga .

Doston ke liye professor se kab lad payenge ,
Kya hum ye fir kar payenge,

Raat ko 2 baje poha khane station kaun jayega ,
Tez gaadi chalane ki shart kaun lagayega .

Kaun muje mere kabiliyat par bharosa dilayega,
Aur jyada hawa mein udne par zameen pe layege ,

Meri khushi mein sach mein khush kaun hoga ,
Mere gam mein muj se jyada dukhi kaun hoga...

KEH DO DOSTON YE DOBAARA KAB HOGA

FAQ: How do spammers get people's email addresses ?

noreply@blogger.com (youthindia) — Thu, 28 Feb 2008 03:58:00 +0000

There are many ways in which spammers can get your email address. The
ones I know of are :

  1. From posts to UseNet with your email address.

     Spammers regularily scan UseNet for email address, using ready made
     programs designed to do so. Some programs just look at articles
     headers which contain email address (From:, Reply-To:, etc), while
     other programs check the articles' bodies, starting with programs
     that look at signatures, through programs that take everything that
     contain a '@' character and attempt to demunge munged email addresses.

     There have been reports of spammers demunging email addresses on
     occasions, ranging from demunging a single address for purposes
     of revenge spamming to automatic methods that try to unmunge email
     addresses that were munged in some common ways, e.g. remove such
     strings as 'nospam' from email addresses.

     As people who where spammed frequently report that spam frequency to
     their mailbox dropped sharply after a period in which they did not
     post to UseNet, as well as evidence to spammers' chase after 'fresh'
     and 'live' addresses, this technique seems to be the primary source
     of email addresses for spammers.

  2. From mailing lists.

     Spammers regularily attempt to get the lists of subscribers to
     mailing lists [some mail servers will give those upon request],
     knowing that the email addresses are unmunged and that only a few
     of the addresses are invalid.

     When mail servers are configured to refuse such requests, another
     trick might be used - spammers might send an email to the mailing
     list with the headers Return-Receipt-To:  or
     X-Confirm-Reading-To: . Those headers would cause some
     mail transfer agents and reading programs to send email back to
     the  saying that the email was delivered to / read at
     a given email address, divulging it to spammers.
   
     A different technique used by spammers is to request a mailing
     lists server to give him the list of all mailing lists it carries
     (an option implemented by some mailing list servers for the
     convenience of legitimate users), and then send the spam to the
     mailing list's address, leaving the server to do the hard work
     of forwarding a copy to each subscribed email address.

     [I know spammers use this trick from bad experience - some spammer
      used this trick on the list server of the company for which I work,
      easily covering most of the employees, including employees working
      well under a month and whose email addresses would be hard to find
      in other ways.]

  3. From web pages.

     Spammers have programs which spider through web pages, looking for
     email addresses, e.g. email addresses contained in mailto: HTML
     tags [those you can click on and get a mail window opened]

     Some spammers even target their mail based on web pages.
     I've discovered a web page of mine appeared in Yahoo as some spammer
     harvested email addresses from each new page appearing in Yahoo and
     sent me a spam regarding that web page.

     A widely used technique to fight this technique is the 'poison' CGI
     script. The script creates a page with several bogus email addresses
     and a link to itself. Spammers' software visiting the page would
     harvest the bogus email addresses and follow up the link, entering
     an infinite loop polluting their lists with bogus email addresses.

     For more information about the poision script, see
      http://www.monkeys.com/wpoison/

  4. From various web and paper forms.

     Some sites request various details via forms, e.g. guest books &
     registrations forms. Spammers can get email addresses from those
     either because the form becomes available on the world wide web,
     or because the site sells / gives the emails list to others.

     Some companies would sell / give email lists filled in on paper
     forms, e.g. organizers of conventions would make a list of
     participants' email addresses, and sell it when it's no longer needed.

     Some spammers would actually type E-mail addresses from printed
     material, e.g.  professional directories & conference proceedings.

     Domain name registration forms are a favourite as well - addresses are
     most usually correct and updated, and people read the emails sent to
     them expecting important messages.

  5. Via an Ident daemon.

     Many unix computers run a daemon (a program which runs in the
     background, initiated by the system administrator), intended to
     allow other computers to identify people who connect to them.

     When a person surfs from such a computer connects to a web site
     or news server, the site or server can connect the person's computer
     back and ask that daemon's for the person's email address.

     Some chat clients on PCs behave similarily, so using IRC can cause
     an email address to be given out to spammers.

  6. From a web browser.

     Some sites use various tricks to extract a surfer's email address
     from the web browser, sometimes without the surfer noticing it.
     Those techniques include :

      1. Making the browser fetch one of the page's images through an
         anonymous FTP connection to the site.

          Some browsers would give the email address the user has
          configured into the browser as the password for the anonymous
          FTP account. A surfer not aware of this technique will not
          notice that the email address has leaked.

      2. Using JavaScript to make the browser send an email to a chosen
         email address with the email address configured into the browser.

          Some browsers would allow email to be sent when the mouse
          passes over some part of a page. Unless the browser is properly
          configured, no warning will be issued.

      3. Using the HTTP_FROM header that browsers send to the server.

          Some browsers pass a header with your email address to every web
          server you visit. To check if your browser simply gives your
          email address to everybody this way, visit
           http://www.privacy.net/analyze/

     It's worth noting here that when one reads E-mail with a browser
     (or any mail reader that understands HTML), the reader should be
     aware of active content (Java applets, Javascript, VB, etc) as
     well as web bugs.

     An E-mail containing HTML may contain a script that upon being
     read (or even the subject being highlighted) automatically sends
     E-mail to any E-mail addresses. A good example of this case is the
     Melissa virus. Such a script could send the spammer not only the
     reader's E-mail address but all the addresses on the reader's
     address book.
      http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-99-04-Melissa-Macro-Virus.html

     A web bugs FAQ by Richard M. Smith can be read at
      http://www.tiac.net/users/smiths/privacy/wbfaq.htm

  7. From IRC and chat rooms.

     Some IRC clients will give a user's email address to anyone who cares
     to ask it. Many spammers harvest email addresses from IRC, knowing that
     those are 'live' addresses and send spam to those email addresses.

     This method is used beside the annoying IRCbots that send messages
     interactively to IRC and chat rooms without attempting to recognize
     who is participating in the first place.

     This is another major source of email addresses for spammers, especially
     as this is one of the first public activities newbies join, making it
     easy for spammers to harvest 'fresh' addresses of people who might have
     very little experience dealing with spam.

     AOL chat rooms are the most popular of those - according to reports
     there's a utility that can get the screen names of participants in
     AOL chat rooms. The utility is reported to be specialized for AOL due
     to two main reasons - AOL makes the list of the actively participating
     users' screen names available and AOL users are considered prime
     targets by spammers due to the reputation of AOL as being the ISP of
     choice by newbies.

  8. From finger daemons.

     Some finger daemons are set to be very friendly - a finger query
     asking for john@host will produce list info including login names
     for all people named John on that host. A query for @host will
     produce a list of all currently logged-on users.

     Spammers use this information to get extensive users list from hosts,
     and of active accounts - ones which are 'live' and will read their
     mail soon enough to be really attractive spam targets.

  9. AOL profiles.

     Spammers harvest AOL names from user profiles lists, as it allows them
     to 'target' their mailing lists. Also, AOL has a name being the choice
     ISP of newbies, who might not know how to recognize scams or know how
     to handle spam.

 10. From domain contact points.

     Every domain has one to three contact points - administration,
     technical, and billing. The contact point includes the email
     address of the contact person.

     As the contact points are freely available, e.g. using the 'whois'
     command, spammers harvest the email addresses from the contact points
     for lists of domains (the list of domain is usually made available to
     the public by the domain registries). This is a tempting methods for
     spammers, as those email addresses are most usually valid and mail
     sent to it is being read regularily.

 11. By guessing & cleaning.

     Some spammers guess email addresses, send a test message (or a real
     spam) to a list which includes the guessed addresses. Then they
     wait for either an error message to return by email, indicating that
     the email address is correct, or for a confirmation. A confirmation
     could be solicited by inserting non-standard but commonly used
     mail headers requesting that the delivery system and/or mail client
     send a confirmation of delivery or reading. No news are, of coures,
     good news for the spammer.

     Specifically, the headers are -
      Return-Receipt-To:       Send a delivery confirmation
      X-Confirm-Reading-To:    Send a reading confirmation

     Another method of confirming valid email addresses is sending HTML
     in the email's body (that is sending a web page as the email's content),
     and embedding in the HTML an image. Mail clients that decode HTML,
     e.g. as Outlook and Eudora do in the preview pane, will attempt fetching
     the image - and some spammers put the recipient's email address in the
     image's URL, and check the web server's log for the email addresses of
     recipients who viewed the spam.

     So it's good advice to set the mail client to *not* preview rich media
     emails, which would protect the recipient from both accidently confirming
     their email addresses to spammers and viruses.

     Guessing could be done based on the fact that email addresses are
     based on people's names, usually in commonly used ways
     (first.last@domain or an initial of one name followed / preceded by
     the other @domain)

     Also, some email addresses are standard - postmaster is mandated by
     the RFCs for internet mail. Other common email addresses are
     postmaster, hostmaster, root [for unix hosts], etc.
    
 12. From white & yellow pages.

     There are various sites that serve as white pages, sometimes named
     people finders web sites. Yellow pages now have an email directory
     on the web.

     Those white/yellow pages contain addresses from various sources,
     e.g. from UseNet, but sometimes your E-mail address will be
     registered for you. Example - HotMail will add E-mail addresses to
     BigFoot by default, making new addresses available to the public.

     Spammers go through those directories in order to get email addresses.
     Most directories prohibit email address harvesting by spammers, but as
     those databases have a large databases of email addresses + names,
     it's a tempting target for spammers.

 13. By having access to the same computer.

     If a spammer has an access to a computer, he can usually get a list
     of valid usernames (and therefore email addresses) on that computer.

     On unix computers the users file (/etc/passwd) is commonly world
     readable, and the list of currently logged-in users is listed via
     the 'who' command.

 14. From a previous owner of the email address.

     An email address might have been owned by someone else, who disposed
     of it. This might happen with dialup usernames at ISPs - somebody
     signs up for an ISP, has his/her email address harvested by spammers,
     and cancel the account. When somebody else signs up with the same ISP
     with the same username, spammers already know of it.

     Similar things can happen with AOL screen names - somebody uses a
     screen name, gets tired of it, releases it. Later on somebody else
     might take the same screen name.

 15. Using social engineering.

     This method means the spammer uses a hoax to convince people
     into giving him valid E-mail addresses.

     A good example is Richard Douche's "Free CD's" chain letter.
     The letter promises a free CD for every person to whom the letter is
     forwarded to as long as it is CC'ed to Richard.

     Richard claimed to be associated with Amazon and Music blvd, among
     other companies, who authorized him to make this offer. Yet he
     supplied no references to web pages and used a free E-mail address.

     All Richard wanted was to get people to send him valid E-mail addresses
     in order to build a list of addresses to spam and/or sell.

 16. Buying lists from others.

     This one covers two types of trades. The first type consists of buying
     a list of email addresses (often on CD) that were harvested via other
     methods, e.g. someone harvesting email addresses from UseNet and sells
     the list either to a company that wishes to advertise via email
     (sometimes passing off the list as that of people who opted-in for
     emailed advertisements) or to others who resell the list.

     The second type consists of a company who got the email addresses
     legitimately (e.g. a magazine that asks subscribers for their email
     in order to keep in touch over the Internet) and sells the list for
     the extra income. This extends to selling of email addresses a
     company got via other means, e.g. people who just emailed the company
     with inquiries in any context.

 17. By hacking into sites.

     I've heard rumours that sites that supply free email addresses
     were hacked in order to get the list of email addresses, somewhat
     like e-commerce sites being hacked to get a list of credit cards.

samundar ka kinara ho
jahan saath tumahara ho
haatoon main haath ho
aur ankhoon se baat ho

teri zulfoon se chuke nikle hawa
tere chera se chulukta hua yeh nasha
teri woh meethi husi
aur woh dheer se nazaroon ko churana
kabhi ho befikr
toh kabhi pyaarse sharmana

bus yoonhi hum kurte rahe baat
aur baatoon hi baaton main raatho
haaton main haath ho
aur aankhoon se baat ho.

13 Lame Superpowers

noreply@blogger.com (youthindia) — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 10:41:00 +0000

I give you 13 of the lamest superpowers ever:

1. Stretching - And the strangest thing about this one? Quite a few superheroes from comics have this ability: Mr. Fantastic, Elongated Man, Plastic Man, Skin, etc.

2. Ability to transform into any form of water - Zan is definitely the lesser of the two Wonder Twins. His sister can become any animal. Zan? He can become water, ice, or steam. Yipee.

3. Ability to control plants and accelerate their growth - A few superheroes/villains have this one. If you’re a vegetarian, this might be useful, having an unlimited supply of food. Otherwise? Pretty useless in any urban area.

4. Shrinking - Quite a few superheroes have this ability too. And I think it’s pretty useless, no matter how creative the comic book writers are.

5. A repulsor energy that acts as a solid force field or repels all forms of matter and energy from one’s body - Unus The Untouchable died when his force field overwhelmed and asphyxiated him. Sometimes being a mutant isn’t so great.

6. Good morals and harmonic “niceness vibes” - Created to be the antithesis of the villain Lobo, Goldstar has the powers of… a boyscout.

7. Neutralizing other people’s powers - Leech and Elmo pretty much just suck away other mutants’ powers. I think I’d rather have no power at all, than have the other mutants hate me.

8. Able to reduce oneself to a two-dimensional state where one’s body is as flat as paper - That’s right. Tommy can turn herself into… paper. Watch out for her nasty paper cut.

9. Able to release a powerful adhesive that causes anything to permanently stick to it on contact, the adhesive eventually dissipates, allowing the glued objects to be removed from his person - Tar Baby can glue things. Way to go.

10. A pariah effect that enables one to overwhelmingly compel people to run towards or away from specific target that is focused on - Tag gets the award for most randomly useless power.

11. Extend razor sharp spikes of bone through one’s skin - Absalom and Marrow are not only freakishly ugly from having bones poke through their skin, and all they can really do with it is break off their protruding bone and hit people with it.

12. Able to generate pyrotechnic flares to create brilliant light and explosive force - Jubilee and Dazzler can make fireworks. Stay back 10 feet, and you’ll be fine.

13. Exist in a gaseous state - Containing himself in a specially-designed suit, poor Dummy disappeared from the New X-Men when his suit was ripped open and his form dispersed into the air.

Life Lessons For Young Entreprenurs

noreply@blogger.com (youthindia) — Mon, 18 Feb 2008 04:25:00 +0000

I remember when I was about 12 years old my Mom and Dad got involved in a multi-level marketing business. They would talk often about dreams and goals and encouraged me to learn all I could about business.

Eventually they burned out and left their MLM opportunity, but the lessons I learned from that early age still apply to my life today. So what did learn?

I learned the value of having a dream. A vision for your life. Without a dream, you will just wander, literally, aimlessly through life. Big houses, nice cars, and gold watches are nice, but they're not really dreams.

No, dreams are bigger than self. Sure, materialism may intially serve as a great motivator. Afterall, if your 17 years old you're naturally going to want a cool car. But eventually you need to graduate to a higher level dream.

How can you contribute to make your community a better place? How can you help others on their path to their dreams? What can you do to show people your vision?

Once you have your dreams your next step is to develop a plan to accomplish those dreams. What business will you go into? How will get the capital to start that business? What else do you need to learn in order to make that business successful? These are all important questions and they will help you begin to design a realistic plan to move towards your dreams.

Once you have a plan, you need to set your goals. Goals are like a trail of little gold nuggets that lead right to the goldmine. You set them, reach for them, accomplish them, and the next thing you know, you're standing at the entrance to a literal goldmine ready to move to a new, unimaginable level.

But you need also to be careful about your goals. Don't just set an easy goal so you can make yourself feel better about setting goals. Set goals that will challenge and change you and never stop reaching for the next level. Just like you wouldn't stop picking up gold nuggets on a trail that lead to a goldmine, you should never stop setting and achieving goals that are moving you towards your dreams.

Lastly, think about what it takes to draw people to you that will help you on your path. A powerful team can provide you with valuable insight and shave years off your jounrney.

I heard a preacher speaking on leadership once and what he said was so profound, so clear, that it blew my mind. He said that leaders do not seek out followers, they attract them. What attracts people to you is your passion, the very people that will help you on your journey will do so because you're passionate about your vision, and your vision comes to you when you understand your purpose.

So it begins with understanding your purpose. The old question, "What is the meaning of life?". You need to answer this question for yourself if you are to develop a vision and plan for your life.

Once you understand your purpose, you will get a vision (or dream) that is inline with that purpose. That vision will inspire passion inside of you and that passion will inspire others to join you. Anthony Robbins says "There are no lazy men, there are simply men who's dreams do not inspire them".

Being an entrepreneur means being a leader. A leader in your business and a leader in your community. Once you begin to apply this philospophy to your life, you'll find that you can do a lot more than buy that cool car.
