An American tourist
in London decides to skip his tour group and
explore the city on his own. He wanders around, seeing the
sights, occasionally stopping at a quaint pub to soak up
the local
culture, chat with the locals, & have a pint of
bitter.

After a while, he finds himself in a very nice
neighbourhood with
big, stately residences. No pubs, no stores, no
restaurants, and worst of all..... no public
restrooms.

However, he really has to go, after all those Bitters
and Guinness`s.
He finds a narrow side street, with high walls
surrounding the adjacent buildings and decides to use the
wall to
solve his problem.

As he is unzipping, he is tapped on the shoulder by a
London
bobby, who says, "Sir, you simply cannot do that here,
you
know.." "I`m very sorry, officer,"
replies the American, "but I really
have to go, and I just can`t find a public
restroom."

"Ah, yes," said the bobby, "just follow
me". He leads the American
to a back delivery alley to a gate, which he
opens. "In there," points the bobby,
"whiz away sir, anywhere you
like."

The fellow enters and finds himself in the most
beautiful garden
he has ever seen. Manicured grass lawns, statuary,
fountains, sculptured hedges, and huge beds of
gorgeous flowers,
all in perfect bloom.

Since he has the policeman`s blessing, he relieves
himself and feels much more
comfortable.

As he goes back through the gate, he says to the bobby
"That was really decent of you.

Is that what you call English hospitality?
" "No sir...", replied
the bobby, "that is what we call the American
Embassy."

Do you share a computer with other users and want some extra security on your folders? There are two ways to password protect a folder built into Windows XP (for other Windows flavors, there are some freeware/shareware programs out there).
1. If you have a log in password for your account, this can be used to protect folders from other users. Your hard drive must be formatted using NTFS (which it probably is unless you`re dual booting with another operating system). Here`s what to do…
Right-click the folder that you want to make private and choose "Properties" (or Alt+Double-click) . Go to the "Sharing" tab and check the "Make this folder private" box.

Click Apply . If you do not have a password on your account, a box will pop up asking if you want to assign a password. This must be done if you want to make the folder private, so click Yes . You will need to use your password to log on to your computer from then on.
Type in a password then confirm it. Click the "Create Password" button then close the Password window.
Click OK in the Properties dialog box.
Now anyone else logged on to your computer can`t access that file without knowing your password.
2. If the Folder is Zipped you can give it a unique password.
Just double-click the zipped folder. In the top menu select File then click "Add a Password".

Type a password into the Password box. Then again in the "Confirm Password" box.

Now, you are the only person who can access files in this folder. The folder can be opened allowing the files to be seen, but you are the only one who can access them.
Don`t you feel more secure now?...

Mahabharat was a Nuclear War?
Some people believe that Mahabharat was a Nuclear War. Why? Because of some explanations that defy contemporary knowledge of weapons that people of THAT time could conceivably have created. Weapons with such impact could not have been conjured up just out of nowhere.. REPEATEDLY.. in various parts of the text. See below for one such description of its effects. It is not surprising that even in the modern world, Robert Oppenheimer, Nuclear Scientist jumped up after seeing the Atomic blast and cited a similar verse from Gita (part of Mahabharat).
An incandescent column of smoke and flame,
as bright as ten thousand suns,
rose with all its splendour.
It was an unknown weapon,
an iron thunderbolt,
a gigantic messenger of death,
which reduced to ashes
the entire race of the Vrishnis and the Andhakas.
The corpses were so burned
as to be unrecognizable.
Hair and nails fell out;
Pottery broke without apparent cause,
and the birds turned white.
…After a few hours
all foodstuffs were infected…
…to escape from this fire
the soldiers threw themselves in streams
to wash themselves and their equipment.”
Now, if you see the extreme climactic changes - creation of desert out of habitable land in Sahara and drastic fall in atmospheric temperature as if Solar Activity had changed - it may not be entirely unlikely, that those climatic shifts may have mimicked a Nuclear Winter.
The philosophy of Gita is hitherto unparalleled in the spiritual realm. No Saint, prophet, Master, or mystic has covered so many topologies - Knowledge, Devotion, Action, - with so much mastery.
You cannot get something out of nowhere. You can only conjure up stuff that is there in your immediate consciousness. Fantasies and miracles in knowledge dont make sense

brainchild-I agree that"gold has never been a good investment".Gold returns are very slow!!

yes, it takes years to move from 16k to 20k. per 10gm.. but it takes its own time. never in this period there is a drastic fall like sensex... it will be one of the investments.. like stockmarket/fd/gold in that order......

Be cautious to invest in Gold!
Contrary to the adds hype, gold has never been a good investment.
Gold returns have lagged behind every other investment.

What is your idea?

Did you know that a hacker could be watching you right at this very moment, reading exactly what you are reading right now, and you didn`t even know they were there or how they got in?
A hacker can get into your bank account if you save your password on your PC. They can `break` your password using commonly available programs and then change your passwords to your banking accounts and PC effectively locking you out. But they don`t even need to `break` your password, if they load the right program on your PC. They can, and do :
steal and delete files,
load dangerous programs onto your PC,
involve you in computer crimes.

Breaking In : A hacker wants to know your IP address and what operating system you are running. Most home PCs run Windows, so home PC hacking is easy because there are many known Window `bugs` that can be taken advantage of. Most home users have never worried about computer security.

Hackers look for commonly know system weaknesses (bugs or holes in software). The operating system, like Windows, has bugs, as do other software like browsers, such as Microsoft`s Internet Explorer. They scan your open ports looking for a running program that they can take advantage of. Scanning is like a burglar who checks all the doors and windows of your house to see if any are unlocked.
**
Solution : A valid licensed Anti-attack software or firewall from a reputed solution provider.
