noreply@blogger.com (ankit shukla) — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 09:55:10 PDT

Please take good care of your wrist while using the keyboard and mouse of your computer.
Long term repetitive action stress can lead to Carpal Tunnel.
You could end up going under a surgery that looking like this:

Plz don't Ignore this post..
It's neither a prank nor a joke; I would personally recommend everybody to go thru this link
And do forward this message to everyone, this is something worth sharing ........

Follow the simple exercises in this post
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Manual therapy Exercises for relief from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
While you are receiving treatment for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome regular exercise sessions can help your rapid recovery. We have included some photos and explanations of recommended exercises.
The following exercises may be prescribed by your healthcare provider in conjunction with Low Level Laser therapy. In the photos you will see below, the right wrist is the one being exercised. If your left wrist is affected, do the same exercises with the left hand. When doing each of these exercises, the hand should be flexed until a sensation of stretching is felt in the arm. The position should be held for 10 to 15 seconds for each of 10 repetitions. Try to this set of exercises three times a day.

Exercises 1 and 2 flex and extend the hand and stretch the wrist. Bend the hand as shown in the photos and apply moderate pressure to it with the other hand.

Exercise 1 - Wrist Flexion Bend the hand being exercised backward ( palm away from you), as shown in the photos. With the fingers of the other hand, apply pressure.
(Click on photo for larger view)

Exercise 2 - Wrist Extension Bend the hand being exercised forward ( palm toward you), as shown in the photos. With the fingers of the other hand, apply pressure.

Exercises 3 and 4 are similar to 1 and 2 except that an object, such as a pad provides the resistance to the hand, instead of your other hand.

Exercise 3 - Wrist Flexion against surface With your arm held vertically, press your hand, palm down, on a firm surface, as shown in the photo.

Exercise 4 - Wrist Extension against surface With your arm held vertically, press your hand, palm up, on a firm surface, as shown in the photo.

Exercises 5 and 6 involve the side to side range of motion of the hand.

Exercise 5 - (Radial Deviation) Place your hand palm downward. Grasp the fingers of the hand to be exercised with your other hand (as shown in the photo) and twist the hand toward you. Keep the hand horizontal.

Exercise 6 - (Ulnar Deviation) Place your hand palm downward. Grasp the fingers of the hand to be exercised with your other hand (as shown in the photo) and twist the hand away from you. Keep the hand horizontal.

My first Meme ever.

noreply@blogger.com (ankit shukla) — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 00:00:21 PDT

Few days back i got a message from one of my blogger friends meghna to write a meme. That time i did'nt even knew what a meme was, then i went on with other blogs to find about it.Now i am thinking what to write about, should I go with the movie reviews or place my favorite music and other stuff here or do something else. Ok now most of the thing about me is already known to every one. few other stuff about me:-

Can't do without internet: ya i am kind of addicted to net. I learnt a lot here, made new friends, and to me easiest way to connect to my new and old friends and yes express my thoughts. An idea came to my mind of starting my own website but for now i am contented with my small blog.

music:- Selecting Music is a very tough job for a guy like me who listen to both western and indian music. Now days i listen to even punjabi. So if i start naming all of them i think my readers will just switch on..

Going with the films i like mostly action films, fantacy films, few romantic and Horror too( not choice of everyone) .. are some of my fav's to name a few are Matrix Triology,DDLJ,Green Mile,Independence Day,Swadesh,Kal Ho Na Ho,Rock,True Lies,Mr an Mrs Smith,Harry potter(1,2,3),Vanhelseing,and many more it just goes on changing with new ones....

AdBlock Plus------ Cool Plugin.

noreply@blogger.com (ankit shukla) — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 05:03:48 PDT

I installed firefox and was searching through its plugins where i found this one Adblock Plus.

It just filters away the ads and banners on the internet thus increasing the browsing speed.. I really liked this one.

Its very Simple..
Right-click on a banner and choose “Adblock” from the context menu — the banner won’t be downloaded again. Maybe even replace parts of the banner address with star symbols to block similar banners as well. Or choose a filter subscription, then even this simple task will usually be unnecessary: the filter subscription will block most advertisements fully automatically.

Currently I'm using it with my Firefox ver. 3 and its working great. It comes for Thunderbird and SeaMonkey too.

Google introduced Knol... My review.

noreply@blogger.com (ankit shukla) — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 06:07:09 PDT

Well what to say about KNOL.

What the googlers say about Knol. (as written by Siobhan on bloger buzz)

Knol has simple web authoring tools that make it easy to collaborate, co-author, and publish. It has community features as well: Your readers will be able to add comments and rate your article, and, if you want, they'll be able to suggest edits that you can then either accept or reject. And, just like in Blogger, you can also choose to include ads from AdSense in your knols to perhaps make a little money.

One other important difference between Knol and Blogger is that Knol encourages you to reveal your true identity. Knols are meant to be authoritative articles, and, therefore, they have a strong focus on authors and their credentials. We feel that this focus will help ensure that authors get credit for their work, make the content more credible.

In my view got their central idea from the article publishing websites such as
AC (Associatedcontent.com)
Paidcontent.com
www.constant-content.com
www.lulu.com
www.ezinearticles.com and many others (just have a look at them anyone can understand that... Paying for the content).

And a mix of wiki idea of editing the main article (but with publishers permission) and putting the whole under common license as do the others mentioned above.

Where's anything new. Yes the banner Google. Compatibility with already existing Blogger, Google Reader, Adsense and may other similar Google services. Enough reason for many to opt for the knol project which is still in beta phase.. And using this site anyone can easily convert pdf and other knol supported files to word format without using any pdf to doc converters and yes its easy to use..

Hey don't think me as someone against that of google just remembsingh is king -trailer, -songser I too have joined Knol....

Another big reason not using plastic:-

noreply@blogger.com (ankit shukla) — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 11:28:27 PDT

Well we all must have seen and even know that plastic is very harmful for the environment in which we live in. Simply stating it pollutes it because it does not and never degrades.

A tortoise trapped in a plastic bangle when it was small---------------------->

Why people are generally using plastics instead of cloth bags, jute bags or any other form of environment friendly bags:- Yes the answer is "Convenience" just for the sake of this we are destroying our ecosystem. Another big reason is its "cheap", Why would a seller use or provide a cloth bag to all its customers if he has a much cheaper alternative in the form of plastic bags. So doesn't it makes your duty to carry a bag with you.

Anyways all the above things which i pointed out above are just common things and most of my readers might be aware of that. But still many times you simply forget to carry a with you if you are buying clothes, eatables etc.

But now you might regret after buying any kind of eatables contained in a plastic bags. Yes its true.

Scientists in the US and Canada studying the effects of bisphenol-A (BPA), an ingredient of polycarbonate plastic used to make common everyday items for storing food and medicines, found it caused loss of connections between brain cells in primates and may lead to disruption in memory and learning as well as depression. (click for source)

So just keep this thing in mind and you will simply refrain from using a plastic container for food item.

I simply ask why only plastic bags even the water bottles, so good looking and convenient plastic containers, or any other plastic made products which we use or keep in contact with any consumable item are simply becoming a threat to us and even our future generations apart from all those environment degrading stuff.

BPA The chemical bisphenol A is used in clear plastics like the bottle at left, but not in opaque plastics. (source)

So next time you are drinking from a plastic water bottle just remember this post. lol.

This is a virtual game. Just for fun.. made by Zapak

That Bird.

noreply@blogger.com (ankit shukla) — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 12:59:22 PDT

Well today I am writing about an event which was revolving my mind from the morning till eve.

I was going to the bus stand at some distance from my house, and on the way saw 2 small children ( their height almost reached my knee) throwing stones in the small side drain which is just a few steps away from me, sort of clean one with little water in it and not at all deep.

At first I just went on some steps further, but then due to some curiosity, I turned around.. and saw a crane ( well kindof, Sorry i don't know the breed) lying there and those kids throwing stones. I simply yelled at them furiously and they ran away. Then I gave a second look at the bird and at the same time my bus came. I boarded the bus, just couldn't miss it.

In the bus, the face of that swan came to my mind every now and then. Various questions erupted in my mind. What if those children returned to continue their game? Was it right to leave that bird there dying? Atleast take it out from there? Should I had not boarded the bus and somehow helped it? and many many more...........I was also very much angry at those kids and then and i was in a kindof depressing mood..

Anyway, the day went on and i forgot about the bird. And in the evening when I retured back home it again came to my mind and i rushed to the same spot.

The bird was still there but was already dead. I took it out, just to confirm myself. Did the kids returned? It was then i noticed that the bird didn't had any kindof visible injuries and the stones which those kids threw were actually not aimed at it. My temper calmed down.

Was the bird suffering from disease, old age etc? Why didn't it flew away when the kids threw stones near it? Anyway I don't know the answer. I dont even know if I was even able to help it..

But what I now know is that those kids wanted to take that bird out of that drain but were afraid to go near it ( it could bite) so they rather tried the other way round throwing stones near it so as to scare it away. But still I just can't forget it.

Be careful in use of Cell Phone.

noreply@blogger.com (ankit shukla) — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 03:22:57 PDT

A few days ago, a person was recharging his cell phone at home.

Just at that time a call Came in and he answered it with the Instrument still connected to the outlet.

After a few seconds electricity flowed into the cell phone unrestrained and the young man was thrown to the ground with a heavy thud.

His parents rushed to the room only to find him unconscious, with a weak heartbeat and burnt fingers.

He was rushed to the nearby hospital, but was pronounced dead on arrival.

Cell phones are a very useful modern invention..

However, we must be aware that it can also be an instrument of death.

Never use the cell phone while it is hooked to the electrical outlet!

Ankit took the quiz What is your EQ (Emotional Intelligence Quotient)? and the result is

Your EQ is 159

Two possibilities - you've either out "Dr. Phil-ed" Dr. Phil... or you're a dirty liar.

Seriously though, your whole "Don't Worry, Be Happy" philosophy is really what defines emotional intelligence.
You're warm, open, and very optimistic. You know how to act appropriately, even if you don't feel like it.

You are a good communicator, and you have little difficulty with personal relationships - even when you're dealing with difficult people.
In general, you are successful, capable, together person. You get what you want out of life.

Many of us say that these things don't work in India .
Couple of months back, the Faridabad Municipal Corporation laid new roads in his area and the residents were very happy about it. But 2 weeks later, BSNL dug up the newly laid roads to install new cables which annoyed all the residents.. A resident used the above listed grievance forum to highlight his concern.. To his surprise, BSNL and Municipal Corporation of Faridabad were served a show cause notice and the guy received a copy of the notice in one week. Government has asked the MC and BSNL about the goof up as it's clear that both the government departments were not in sync at all.

So use this grievance forum and educate others who don't know about this facility.
This way we can at least raise our concerns instead of just talking about the 'System' in India .

Invite your friends to contribute for many such happenings.

PLEASE SPREAD THIS MESSAGE IF U WANT OUR INDIA TO HAVE A BETTER TOMORROW & FORWARD THIS MAIL TO AS MANY AS POSSIBLE.

Are public networking sites like facebook orkut etc useful??

I don't know why generally people guys say that these websites are a waste. Well me being an net savvy guy, I say it’s useful so I thought of some points to strengthen my point, so here this goes:-

It’s a way to network and meet new people.
Well don't expect me to keep a record of all phone numbers and calling all my long list of friends from various schools I have attended (I had many), college and after college life etc I have been associated with.
Find your lost friends, old friends, far away ones and maintain contact with them.
For advertisers- (especially for adverts targeting specific net savvy audience or younger generation)
Earning way for others (see various applications in FaceBook or orkut etc, its a goooood business).
See what others are up to (sounds fishy) or make network groups etc.. kind-of time killing method. Anyways it depends on individual preferences and perception what he does with this info or meeting ground.

Well About WASTE of time-> well if you are not doing anything constructive then u are wasting time.. My personal point of view:- I don't like people sitting infront of these websites browsing others whole day and waiting for a scrap to pour in.

Anyways if you can think of any more points then add yours too.. :)
