Method to clean dirty CD/DVDs

2010-06-09T16:18:00.000+05:30

Method to clean dirty CD/DVDs

Do you know how to clean a CD? Every time you keep your CD/DVD outside the pouch, there is a high possibility that the CD could get dirty, smudged or fingerprinted. And the problem with most of you is that you want to clean it but you don’t know how to clean it in such a dirty condition.

Cleaning Dirty CD / DVDs

For all those who want to clean a dirty CD/DVD with minimum effort in the cheapest way, follow the process with simple steps given below in order.

· Find yourself a container (a medium sized one which is good enough to submerge a disk in it)

· Squeeze into the container a table spoon of liquid soap or window cleaning solution. You can also use all-natural cleaning liquid made out of distilled water.

· Now pour clean water into the container and fill it. Now the water should become soapy once it gets mixed with the cleaning solution added whatsoever.

· Now put the dirty disk into the container filled with soapy water. Leave it there for about a minute or two.

· Now remove the disk from the soapy water container and rinse it with running warm water.

· Repeat the process if the disk is still a bit dirty. In case the smudges on the disk are stubborn, you can use a soft cloth to rub soap on those parts.

· Finally shake off the excess water and let the disk to dry naturally. Do not use any artificial blower or hair drier.

Now you have your shiny good as new CD which can be easily run on your computer and there are less chances of getting data copy errors on running it.

Do not turn on A/C immediately as soon as you enter Your .... CAR!

2010-06-05T06:34:00.007+05:30

Do not turn on A/C immediately as soon as you enter Your .... CAR!

Please open the windows after you enter your car and do not turn ON the air-conditioning immediately. According to a research done, the car dashboard, sofa, air freshener emits Benzene, a Cancer causing toxin (carcinogen- take note of the heated plastic smell in your car). In addition to causing cancer, it poisons your bones, causes anemia, and reduces white blood cells. Prolonged exposure will cause Leukemia, increasing the risk of cancer may also cause miscarriage.

Acceptable Benzene level indoors is 50 mg per sq. ft. A car parked indoors with the windows closed will contain 400-800 mg of Benzene. If parked outdoors under the sun at a temperature above 60 degrees F, the Benzene level goes up to 2000-4000 mg, 40 times the acceptable level... & the people inside the car will inevitably inhale an excess amount of the toxins.

It is recommended that you open the windows and door to give time for the interior to air out before you enter. Benzene is a toxin that affects your kidney and liver, and is very difficult for your body to expel this toxic stuff.

കശുവണ്ടി പരിപ്പ് കഴിക്കൂ കൊളസ്‌ട്രോള്‍ നിയന്ത്രിക്കൂ

Saturday, May 29, 2010

ന്യൂദല്‍ഹി : കശുവണ്ടിപരിപ്പ് കഴിക്കുന്നത് കൊളസ്‌ട്രോള്‍ നിയന്ത്രിക്കാനും, രക്ത ചംക്രമണം വര്‍ദ്ധിപ്പിക്കാനും കഴിയുമെന്ന് ദല്‍ഹിയിലെ ഒരു സംഘം ഗവേഷകര്‍ കണ്ടെത്തിയിരിക്കുന്നു. 25 പേരില്‍ നടത്തിയ ഗവേഷണത്തിനൊടുവിലാണ് അവര്‍ ഈ നിഗമനത്തില്‍ എത്തിയത്.

ശരീരത്തിനു ഗുണകരമായ നിരവധി പ്രോട്ടീനുകളുടെ കലവറയാണ് കശുവണ്ടിപരിപ്പ്. കൂടുതലായി ഇത് കഴിക്കുന്നവരില്‍ ഹൃദയസംബന്ധമായ അസുഖങ്ങള്‍ വരാന്‍ സാധ്യത കുറവാണെന്നാണ് പഠനത്തില്‍ കണ്ടെത്തിയത്.

2.3 ഔണ്‍സ് കശുവണ്ടിപ്പരിപ്പ് ദിവേസന കഴിക്കുന്നവരില്‍ അഞ്ച് ശതമാനം വരെ കൊളസ്‌ട്രോള്‍ സാധ്യത കുറയുമെന്നാണ് കണ്ടെത്തിയിരിക്കുന്നത്. മെലിഞ്ഞ ശരീര പ്രകൃതിയുള്ളവര്‍ കശുവണ്ടിപരിപ്പ് കഴിക്കുന്നത് വളരെ നല്ലതാണ്. എന്നാല്‍ മൂന്ന് ഔണ്‍സില്‍ കൂടുതല്‍ കശുവണ്ടിപരിപ്പ് കഴിക്കുന്നവര്‍ക്ക് പൊണ്ണത്തടിയുണ്ടാകാന്‍ സാധ്യതയേറെയാണെന്നാണ് ശാസ്ത്രഞ്ജര്‍ പറയുന്നത്.

The Letter “Z” Will Be Removed from the English Alphabet ?

2010-05-19T18:57:00.000+05:30

The Letter “Z” Will Be Removed from the English Alphabet

Surprising as it sounds, it looks like the English alphabet will be losing one of its letters on June 1st. The announcement came from the English Language Central Commission (ELCC).
Here is a quote from the press release:

After carefully considering and debating the matter for over two years, the ELCC came to the conclusion that the letter “Z” should be removed from the English alphabet. The main objective of this change is to simplify the phonetic aspect of the language, and to unify the American and British spellings.

What will happen to the words that have the letter “z” in them? It depends on the word. According to the ELCC, words that started with a “z” will now start with an “x”. Examples include:

zero becomes xero
zoo becomes xoo
zone becomes xone
zodiac becomes xodiac

Words that featured a “z” with the “s” sound, on the other hand, will now be officially written with the “s” (i.e., unifying the American and British spelling). Examples include:

visualize becomes visualise
analyze becomes analyse
materialize becomes materialise

What do you think about this change? Will it really simplify the English language, or will it make things more confusing?

Math is a problem for some of us!

See the Beauty of Mathematics!!!!!!!

1 x 8 + 1= 9
12 x 8 + 2= 98
123 x 8 + 3= 987
1234 x 8 + 4= 9876
12345 x 8 + 5= 98765
123456 x 8 + 6= 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7= 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8= 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9= 987654321

1 x 9 + 2 = 11
12 x 9 + 3 = 111
123 x 9 + 4 = 1111
1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111
12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111
123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111
1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111
12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111
123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111

9 x 9 + 7 = 88

9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888

Brilliant, isn't it?

And look at this symmetry:

1 x 1 = 1
11 x 11 = 121
111 x 111 = 12321
1111 x 1111 = 1234321
11111 x 11111 = 123454321
111111 x 111111 = 12345654321
1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321
11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111 = 12345678987654321

Beating the employment trap: Enjoy it

Bill Gates organized an interview to recruit a new Chairman for Microsoft Europe. 5000 candidates assembled in a large room. One of them was Jose from Kerala
Bill Gates: Thank you for coming. Those who do not know JAVA may leave.

2000 people left the room.

Jose says to himself, 'I do not know JAVA, but I have nothing to lose if I stay. I'll give it a try !'

Bill Gates: Candidates who never had experience of managing more than 100 people may leave.

2000 people left the room.

Jose says to himself 'I never managed anybody by myself, but I have nothing to lose if I stay. What can happen to me ?' So he stays.

Bill Gates: Candidates who do not have management diplomas may leave.

500 people leave the room.

Jose says to himself, 'I left school at 15, but what have I got to lose ?' So he stays in the room.

Lastly, Bill Gates asked the candidates who do not speak Serbo-Croat to leave.

498 people left the room.

Jose says to himself, 'I do not speak one word of Serbo-Croat but what do I have to lose ?' So he stays and finds himself with one other candidate; Everyone else has gone.

Bill Gates joined them and said 'Apparently you are the only two candidates who speak Serbo-Croat, so I'd now like to hear you have a conversation together in that language.' Calmly, Jose turns to the other candidate and asks "Naattil Evideya?"
The other candidate answers: 'Pathanamthitta'

Both of them selected because Bill gates doesn't know that language !!!!
