A mobile phone is only as portable as its power source, however, so to get the most out of your phone you need to get the most out of your battery. When it comes to battery life, there are two separate, but connected, considerations: how to make the battery last longer between charges, and how to prolong the overall life of the battery. I have few simple recommendation which you can follow.<br> </p> <ol> <li>Turn the phone off. This is probably the most effective and most simple way of conserving your battery’s power. If you don't plan on answering the phone while you're sleeping or after business hours, just turn it off. Do the same if you are in an area with no reception (such as a subway or remote area) or in a roaming area, since constantly searching for service depletes the battery fairly quickly. Some phones have an automatic power save feature, but it takes about 30 minutes with no service to kick in. By then, much battery power has been used.</li> <li>Stop searching for a signal. When you are in an area with poor or no signal, your phone will constantly look for a better connection, and will use up all your power doing so. This is easily understood if you have ever forgotten to turn off your phone on a flight. The best way to ensure longer battery life is to make sure you have a great signal where you use your phone. <br> </li> <li>Switch off the vibrate function on your phone, and use just the ring tone instead. The vibrate function uses up a lot of battery power. Keep the ring tone volume as low as possible.</li> <li>Turn off your phone's back light. The back light is what makes the phone easier to read in bright light or outside. However, the light also uses battery power. If you can get by without it, your battery will last longer. If you have to use the back light, many phones will let you set the amount of time to leave the back light on. Shorten that amount of time. Usually, one or two seconds will be sufficient. Some phones have an ambient light sensor, which can turn off the back light in bright conditions and enable it in darker ones.</li> <li>Avoid using unnecessary features. If you know it will be a while before your phone’s next charge, don’t use the camera or connect to the Internet. Flash photography can drain your battery especially quickly. If your phone has blue tooth capability, disable it when not in use.</li> <li>Turn off Bluetooth. BT will drain your battery very quickly, and having it on can cause you problems near virus-infected smartphones.</li> <li>Same goes for WIFI and GPS if your phone has these features built in. Keep them off when not required, save more power.</li> </ol> <br> <br> Abhijith Jainhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14456215387075479215noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765783735670392827.post-82550500913209354782009-06-16T15:58:00.001+05:302009-06-16T16:00:06.901+05:30Get your Facebook URLNow you can get your own URL on famous social website, <a onclick="window.open('http://Facebook.com')" href="javascript:void(0)">Facebook.com</a>. All you need to do is hit <a onclick="window.open('http://facebook.com/usernames')" href="javascript:void(0)">facebook.com/usernames</a> and you will be directed to login and upon doing so you will be given some initial options for Facebook user names. If the initial selections aren't what you want, just click on "More" to reveal a field where you can enter your own username and check its availability. If it is available, that's it, just accept it to save your changes.<br /><br />Remember once you accept the user name then you can not change it. Within seven minutes of the service being available, last weekend users grabbed their favorite user names.Abhijith Jainhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14456215387075479215noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765783735670392827.post-40901912628343033832009-06-09T16:58:00.002+05:302009-06-14T01:40:13.728+05:30How to speed up your computer..My PC has been terribly slow since few weeks. After googling I found some ways to boost the performance of the PC.<br /><br /><ul> <li><strong>Stop programs from starting when Windows XP starts</strong>. The more programs that are running in the background, the slower Windows XP will be running. To stop the programs from running when Windows starts, click "Start->Run" and then type "msconfig.exe" in the Run dialog. Click the "Startup" tab at the top, then uncheck any programs that you don't want to start. If you change your mind, then you can simply re-check the checkbox and the programs will once again start with Windows. Once you have deselected the programs, click "OK" and then the "Restart" button to restart your computer.</li> <li><strong>Modify the Windows XP performance settings</strong>. Windows XP allows you to modify certain settings to help increase performance. To access these settings, click "Start->Control Panel->System." Click the "Advanced" tab, and then under the "Performance" section, click the "Settings" button. Within the "Visual Effects" tab, select the "Adjust for best performance" option. Click the "OK" button to close the window, and then "OK" again to close the "System Properties."</li> </ul> <pre class="moz-signature" cols="999999"> </pre>Abhijith Jainhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14456215387075479215noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765783735670392827.post-84505427521046067842009-06-08T12:52:00.001+05:302009-06-12T18:04:57.689+05:30Why there is delay in adding beneficiary to HDFC Net banking?Recently HDFC has introduced delay in adding beneficiary to the <br>third party transfer. Before it just used to take few minutes to <br>transfer the amount to other persons account. I feel this change has <br>been made for the account holders safety.<p> Few months back there was fishing site which cloned HDFC website <br>looks. They looked very similar to HDFC bank website, but they were not. <br>What hackers used to do is, they used to send the link to random people, <br>and people who had HDFC net banking, if he/she enters the customer id <br>and password, then they are gone. Fishers get these information and they <br>immediately add their account to user's third party transfer or as <br>beneficiary and transfer amount to their accounts.<p>After this incident HDFC has took some firm steps to avoid such incidents.<br>1. As soon as you enter customer id and HDFC website you will need to <br>confirm your image.<br>2. After adding third party beneficiary, account holder will get update <br>about this to his cell/E-mail and new beneficiary will only be added <br>after a day. So account holder will enough time to get if there is any <br>foul play.Abhijith Jainhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14456215387075479215noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765783735670392827.post-1095360571848755652009-05-04T17:03:00.009+05:302009-05-04T17:20:10.663+05:30The new brand 'endorser' for Vodafone<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sJcJ1OTMwAA/Sf7U8B4KNgI/AAAAAAAAAhA/OHWX6Zh2VaI/s1600-h/image002.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 158px; height: 167px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_sJcJ1OTMwAA/Sf7U8B4KNgI/AAAAAAAAAhA/OHWX6Zh2VaI/s200/image002.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331933136614471170" border="0" /></a> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sJcJ1OTMwAA/Sf7UG-nA5FI/AAAAAAAAAgo/k9jxv8pbhV8/s1600-h/image001.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 161px; height: 168px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_sJcJ1OTMwAA/Sf7UG-nA5FI/AAAAAAAAAgo/k9jxv8pbhV8/s200/image001.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331932225204184146" border="0" /></a> <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sJcJ1OTMwAA/Sf7VFtcP22I/AAAAAAAAAhQ/qDgYlnlffJ4/s1600-h/image004.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 167px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sJcJ1OTMwAA/Sf7VFtcP22I/AAAAAAAAAhQ/qDgYlnlffJ4/s200/image004.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331933302927383394" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">No, they aren’t animated characters. They are human beings who were made to wear body suits</span>. “The design of the characters is such that one gets fooled into thinking it is animation,” shrugs Rao, which was indeed the very illusion that had to be created. “In a sense, it is ‘live’ animation!” he quips, referring to the fact that it was all shot live.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sJcJ1OTMwAA/Sf7V3ZoLAPI/AAAAAAAAAhY/guXg2tnszHQ/s1600-h/image005.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 110px; height: 152px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sJcJ1OTMwAA/Sf7V3ZoLAPI/AAAAAAAAAhY/guXg2tnszHQ/s200/image005.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5331934156602147058" border="0" /></a><br />Prakash Varma, ad filmmaker, Nirvana Films, has directed the commercials, and reveals that the Zoozoos were a big challenge to create. The practical aspects of how they will move, talk, gesticulate and emote were very important. Essentially, costume design and artwork were crucial elements.<br /><br />“It took me three weeks of pre-production to understand how it will work,” says Varma. There were two fabrics that were considered for the body suits, and one was rejected for it had too many wrinkles and was shiny. The wrinkles would have shown when the characters moved, thereby shattering the illusion of animation. “So we chose the more practical, thicker fabric,” Varma explains.<br /><br />The production team divided the outfit into two parts: the body and the head. The body part of the outfit was stuffed with foam in some places, while the head was attached separately. To make it look bigger than a human head, a harder material called Perspex was used, which in turn was stuffed with foam (with scope for ventilation).Abhijith Jainhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14456215387075479215noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765783735670392827.post-15180948784067935872009-04-30T13:38:00.001+05:302009-04-30T13:38:44.076+05:30How To Prevent Swine Flu<p><br> If you have been following the news from across the world lately, you have probably heard the words ‘swine fever' or ‘swine flu' or ‘swine influenza' several times over the last few days. </p> <p>As of last week, a high degree alert has been sounded by the World <a id="KonaLink0" target="undefined" class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;" href="http://www.howtodothings.com/health-fitness/how-to-prevent-swine-flu#"><font style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 11px; position: static;" color="blue"><span class="kLink" style="border-bottom: 1px solid blue; color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 11px; position: static; background-color: transparent;">Health </span><span class="kLink" style="border-bottom: 1px solid blue; color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 11px; position: static; background-color: transparent;">Organization</span></font><span style="position: relative;" id="preLoadWrap0"> <div style="position: absolute; z-index: 4000; top: -32px; left: -18px; display: none;" id="preLoadLayer0"><img style="border: 0px none ;" src="cid:part1.04050208.06010504@oracle.com"></div> </span></a>(WHO), which has escalated the threat level of this virus to that of a pandemic - in other words, the outbreak of swine flu is now prevalent across many parts of the world.</p> <p align="justify">As you may know by now, swine flu is a contagious <a id="KonaLink1" target="undefined" class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;" href="http://www.howtodothings.com/health-fitness/how-to-prevent-swine-flu#"><font style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 11px; position: static;" color="blue"><span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 11px; position: static;">respiratory </span><span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 11px; position: static;">disease</span></font></a> causing acute distress, usually caused by a variant of swine influenza ‘A' virus. Until now, this virus was localized among pigs, but it has begun to affect human beings, sometimes in a fatal manner across parts of the United States, North America, South America, Europe, Africa, China, Japan and some other parts of Eastern Asia.</p> <p>Quite alarming, but swine flu is definitely preventable. Learning how to prevent swine flu from spreading among human beings and how to take precautions against the virus will be of help. Here are some steps to prevent swine flu: </p> <p><strong>If you are a healthy person, then - </strong></p> <ul> <li>Avoid contact with anyone that appears to be suffering from symptoms akin to common influenza or fever. </li> </ul> <ul> <li>Avoid remaining in closed environments for long periods of time, or within closed groups of people, especially if any one or more of them appear to be ill, tired, fatigued, etc.</li> </ul> <ul> <li>To the best extent possible, avoid traveling to any of the regions mentioned above that have already had an outbreak of swine flu. If you have recently returned from a trip to these regions or anywhere nearby, then get a general check-up done by your physician, including some tests done to rule out the possibility of the swine fever virus affecting you.</li> </ul> <ul> <li>If you need to head into an area with a swine influenza outbreak, consider wearing a surgical face mask as you may have seen people wearing for the SARS or avian flu outbreaks. </li> </ul> <br> <br> <p>It may be helpful to know that physicians and health authorities in the United States are recommending measured dosages of the anti-virals Oseltamivir or Zanamivir for the treatment of swine flu.</p> <p>If you are in regular contact with pigs, or live in areas where the population of pigs is high, then watch your animals for sick pigs, separate them from the healthy ones, and report them to your local health authorities. On your own part, minimize contact with sick pigs.</p> <p>In general, it is highly advisable to maintain the highest levels of hygiene and general health possible:</p> <ul> <li>Eat fresh cut vegetables and fruits after washing them thoroughly, and only consume <a id="KonaLink2" target="undefined" class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;" href="http://www.howtodothings.com/health-fitness/how-to-prevent-swine-flu#"><font style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 11px; position: static;" color="blue"><span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 11px; position: static;">nutritious </span><span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 11px; position: static;">food</span></font></a>. </li> <li>Wash hands regularly with soap. </li> <li>Swine influenza viruses are not transmitted by food. But it is always good practice to ensure that meat is freshly procured, or if stored, it should be stored in frozen compartments. In any case use it immediately -- cooking it well and at temperatures high enough to kill any virus -- for example, swine fever virus is killed if pork is cooked at 160 degrees Fahrenheit - of course, this does not mean you can eat contaminated pork, but cooking healthy meat at that temperature is advised.</li> </ul> <p>If you suffer from any symptoms akin to common flu, including fever, then consult your physician immediately. As with any medical condition, prevention of swine flu is preferable to treatment.</p> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <font size="-2">Source: Howtodothings.com</font><br> Abhijith Jainhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14456215387075479215noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765783735670392827.post-85106623319185963032009-02-26T12:01:00.001+05:302009-02-26T12:05:15.383+05:30Marble PicturizationThis is the a very funny video.

If you do not know what is twitter please go to <a onclick="window.open('http://twitter.com')" href="javascript:void(0)">http://twitter.com</a> web page.<br /><br />Initially I had problems in adding my cellphone. I am from India and I am using Vodafone connection. Twitter used to give information that I have to send verification code to "<strong>5566511</strong>". But my repeated attempts went in vain. Messages never got delivered to this number. Then I tried to send verification code to International number "<strong>44 762 4801423</strong>". But even this message got failed. Then I realized that I had to prefix "+" sign to "<strong>44 762 4801423</strong>". Thts it my device got verified. :)<br /><br />After my cell got verified I could see following message:<br /><br /><a onclick="window.open('http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sJcJ1OTMwAA/SaVHGbxVXUI/AAAAAAAAAfw/GWHZBQWVB_g/s1600-h/twitter.JPG')" href="javascript:void(0)"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5306725911785463106" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 90px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_sJcJ1OTMwAA/SaVHGbxVXUI/AAAAAAAAAfw/GWHZBQWVB_g/s400/twitter.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Now I'm able to update twitter by sending text to <strong>+44 762 4801423</strong>.

Marriage is one of them. Believe me, the decision on whom to marry is the most important decision a person will make in his life. After marriage, your wife is the most important person in your life. She can make or break your life. The mere thought of this is very frightening. </p> <p><b>Some of the questions that crop up are -</b> </p> <p><b>a.. What sort of a girl do I marry?</b> </p> <p><b>b.. Will she adjust in my family?</b> </p> <p><b>c.. How can I decide on a girl by just meeting her for a few times? </b></p> <p><b>d.. When should I get married?</b> </p> <p><b>e.. This is my life. So, I should choose the girl I marry, but then what if I make a mistake? .. so on and so forth. </b></p> <p><b>I will try to address these & many more questions in the following sections. </b></p> <p><b><span style="font-size:13.5pt;color:red">The Nine Rules of Arranged Marriage</span></b> </p> <p><b><span style="color:blue">Rule 1</span></b><b><span style="color:blue">-</span><span style="color:blue">Magic No. 26,27,28</span></b> </p> <p>In an ideal scenario, a girl goes to college at the age of 18. By the time she graduates, goes for her post graduation and/ or works for 1-2 years, she will be about 23- 24. This means that she has spent about 5 years away from her home. In the 5 years period, she would meet many smart guys at college or during her first few years on job. So, in all probability it would be difficult to find a good girl older than 24 yrs. Secondly, in Indian families there is lot of pressure on the girl's to get married by the time they become 24-25. </p> <p>Statistics says that there is a generation gap after every 5 years. So, in such scenario, one would prefer to marry a girl who is about 3-4 years younger to you. Thus, working backwards, an ideal age for a guy to get married is by 28. Earlier the marriage, the better it is. </p> <p>Well, as we all know,<b> <span style="color:fuchsia">in the current market scenario, there will never be stability in our career. So, I believe there is no such thing as, "I will marry when I settle down". </span></b></p> <p><b><span style="color:green">Rule 2</span></b><b><span style="color:green">-</span><span style="color:green">Subset of Marriage-able Girls</span></b> </p> <p>At times you hear statements like, "I am not getting the right match, I will look after 3 months, I will find a better match then". Well the truth is otherwise. The subset of unmarried girl looking for a match is fixed. >From this subset, there would be girls who would get married & there would be new girls added who would be looking for a match. <b><span style="color:fuchsia">The net result is that at any given time, the variety & numbers of marriage-able girls are fixed. </span></b></p> <p><b><span style="color:red">Rule 3</span></b><b><span style="color:red">-</span><span style="color:red">Competition for Girls</span></b> </p> <p>Like all other facets of life,<b><span style="color:fuchsia">there is lot of competition for good girls</span></b>. So, if you are looking for a girl who is post graduate, has done her Engg, is working, very beautiful, smart, from a good family etc. etc, just think again. There are other guys who are also looking for similar girls & probably they are better off than you in terms of career, looks personality etc. Given a choice every guy would like to marry Aishwarya Rai. So, set your expectations accordingly. </p> <p><b><span style="color:blue">Rule 4</span></b><b><span style="color:blue">-</span><span style="color:blue">Understanding Girls</span></b> </p> <p>You would have met a lot of people during your life. As we all know, it's difficult to judge a person based on a few meetings. I am sure you would agree with me that in case of girls it is even more difficult to understand them in a few meetings. I know people who are still trying to understand their wife. ;-).. <b><span style="color:fuchsia">Understanding your spouse is a life long assignment. </span></b>So, then how do you select a girl based on a few meeting? This is where you need to<b> <span style="color:fuchsia">take the help of your parents/friends & latest technologies like email/chat to choose your girl. </span></b></p> <p><b><span style="color:fuchsia">Rule 5</span></b><b><span style="color:fuchsia">-</span><span style="color:fuchsia">Society Expectation</span></b> </p> <p>The selection process is tough on every one who is involved in the process. In arranged marriage, involvement of family & society is pretty high. You can't meet a girl 3-4 times & then say no to her. It is bad for her future. So, <b><span style="color:fuchsia">you should have a good short-listing criterion. Meet only a few girls & be sure what you are looking for. </span></b>It is for the benefit of everyone involved. </p> <p><b><span style="color:blue">Rule 6</span></b><b><span style="color:blue">-</span><span style="color:blue">Marriage Between Equals</span></b> </p> <p>Unlike love marriage, in arranged marriage you also marry into the girl's family. In arranged marriages, family support plays a major role in ensuring a successful marriage. This is where <b><span style="color:fuchsia">the compatibility of social status, family values & caste/religion plays a major role. </span></b>It's important to note that in case there is a perfect match between the two families, the marriage is destined to succeed. </p> <p><b><span style="color:green">Rule 7</span></b><b><span style="color:green">-</span><span style="color:green">Know Yourself</span></b> </p> <p>Unlike love marriage, in arranged marriage you first marry a person & then fall in love. So, it's very important that you do a self-assessment on the kind of person you would love. They say, "Opposite attract", while they also say, "Bird of same feather flock together". So, you take a call on what sort of person you like. Take a pen & paper; write down the kind of attributes you are looking for in a girl. Say, she should ideally have the looks of Sonia, the style of Monica, the voice of Sheena, the patience of Rashmi. <b><span style="color:fuchsia">You will certainly not find the perfect girl </span></b>, but then you would have a good idea of what you are looking for. The secret here is to<b> <span style="color:fuchsia">set some minimum criteria for selection</span></b>. Don't forget rule no.3 here. </p> <p><b><span style="color:red">Rule 8</span></b><b><span style="color:red">-</span><span style="color:red">Girl's Beauty</span></b> </p> <p>A girl's looks attract, but then no one wants to end up marrying a dumb. It is like buying your bike. When you initially buy it, you are crazy about the looks, but later on you love it for its reliability, fuel economy & comfort level. Similarly, a girl's looks are important, but then it should not be the most important criteria. <b><span style="color:fuchsia">Later on in life, you will get bored of her looks. It is then that her personality & behavior will make all the difference to your marriage </span></b>. I am sure your parents will be able to advice you a lot better on this topic <span style="color:blue">.</span> </p> <p><b><span style="color:blue">Rule 9</span></b><b><span style="color:blue">-</span><span style="color:blue">Taking Advice</span></b> </p> <p>As I have mentioned in the next rule, it's very important that the final decision on whom to marry must necessarily be yours. However, <b><span style="color:fuchsia">don't do the mistake of isolating yourself from the world while planning your marriage. Discuss with your parents & very close friends on this issue. They are your well wishers </span></b>. Secondly, in such important matters it's necessary that you analyze all possibilities. Remember, I am not suggesting that you follow others' advice, but don't forget to take their advice. </p> <p><b><span style="color:fuchsia">Rule 10</span></b><b><span style="color:fuchsia">-</span><span style="color:fuchsia">Own Decision</span></b> </p> <p>All said & done, it's your marriage & your life that is at stake. Once you are married, you & your wife are the only persons who will be facing the music. Don't marry a girl just because your parents or friends asked you to do so After marriage, if things don't work out & you end up saying, "It's because of my friends or my parents that I married you", then your marriage is destined for disaster. If the girl is of your choice, it is you who will be responsible for whatever happens. That's when the marriage works out perfectly. So, <b><span style="color:fuchsia">ensure that you marry the girl of your choice. </span></b></p> <p><b><span style="font-size:13.5pt;color:red">How to approach the selection process?</span></b> </p> <p>>From the day, a person decides to get married; the selection process takes a minimum of 3 months. The whole process needs a lot of patience & commitment. The ideal steps to be followed are: </p> <p><b><span style="color:red">A. Definition Phase</span></b> </p> <p>Define the minimum criteria for the kind of life partner you are looking for in terms of education, physical appearance, social status, family values, future career plans. Remember the Rule 3 here. </p> <p><b><span style="color:blue">B. Lead Generation Phase</span></b> </p> <p>Place ads in various newspapers, magazines, websites, through friends, family friends, family societies & association etc. You need to exhaust all possible means of getting bio-datas at one go. Remember the Rule 2 here. </p> <p><b><span style="color:green">C. Short Listing Phase</span></b> </p> <p>Based on your selection criteria, short-list the interesting bio-datas. The general process followed for correspondence is as follows: </p> <p><b>1.</b> The initiator sends a one page profile of himself/herself. </p> <p><b>2.</b> Based on the profile, the receiver sends his/her one page profile along with request for detailed profile, photo, and horoscope. </p> <p><b>3.</b> The initiator then sends the requested information along with a request for similar information. </p> <p><b>4.</b> The receiver sends similar information. </p> <p><b>5.</b> If the bio-data is selected, it is passed over to the next phase. </p> <p><b><span style="color:red">D. Casual Interaction Phase</span></b> </p> <p>Based on short listing, about 7 to 10 bio-datas are taken forwarded to this phase. The next step to follow here is to exchange email/ chat ids. The guy & the girl then interact for 10 - 15 days to try & judge mutual compatibility through email/chat. </p> <p><b><span style="color:blue">E. Family Interaction Phase</span></b> </p> <p>Based on the earlier phase, about 5 leads are taken for consideration in this phase. During this phase, the parents get involved & check the background information about the families to find mutual compatibility. </p> <p><b><span style="color:green">F. Dating Phase</span></b> </p> <p>Based on the earlier phase about 3 leads are taken forward to this phase. During this phase, the guy & the girl interact by going out alone for 2-3 times. The guy needs to prepare a set of simple questions like who is your favorite star, what are your hobbies? He needs to use his judgment to analyze the girl based on her responses. </p> <p><b><span style="color:maroon">G. The D-day Phase</span></b> </p> <p>Finally, the D-day comes when the guy has to select the girl he wants to spend his life with. If the process if followed systematically, there will be no ambiguity in deciding who should be your life partner. </p> <p>Finally, my dear friends,<b> <span style="color:fuchsia">marriage is all about compromises.</span></b>In spite of all the planning that you do, there are a lot of uncertainties in a marriage. In fact this is the best part about marriage. Just remember that the person you marry must be of your choice. In such case, there would be no going back for both of you. </p> <p>A few words of advice: To make your marriage a success; just believe in the age-old virtue<b> , <span style="color:fuchsia">"Never do anything to others that you don't like for yourself? </span></b></p> <p> <b><span style="color:fuchsia">BEST OF LUCK</span></b> <br><br><br><br><br><span style="color:navy"> </span></p> </div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div> Abhijith Jainhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14456215387075479215noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765783735670392827.post-22156872285526838772009-01-23T14:39:00.005+05:302009-01-28T19:19:24.627+05:30Watch videos from Gmail chatGmail has added one more feature to chat box.

Due to some reasons the film’s post production processes took a long while. Now that everything is done, the couple is unavailable for the dubbing.<br /><br />Apparently Shahid and Kareena have finished just a quarter of their dubbing job and there is still a lot to do. But both of them are so busy with their schedules that they are not able to spare sometime off to finish the dubbing.<br /><br />The producers are worried that the film might not do well because film has both Bebo and Shahid in their older avatars of Fida days. Shahid now looks more matured and Kareena has lost oodles of weight. The audience might not like watching them in their old look.<br /><br />Will the film flop or will people look forward to it.

But faced with a plunge in global demand, the Japanese automaker will slash another 900 temporary jobs, bringing the total number of job losses to over 2,000, the Sankei newspaper said Thursday, citing no sources.<br /><br />Japan's public broadcaster NHK also said Mitsubishi will trim an additional 900 jobs by the end of March at the company's auto plant in Okayama, western Japan.<br /><br />A Mitsubishi spokesman declined to confirm the reports. Separately, the Nikkei business daily said Thursday that Mitsubishi will supply its electric passenger car, i MiEV, for French automaker PSA Peugeot Citroen as early as next year.<br /><br />Mitsubishi's i MiEV will go on sale in Japan this year. Mitsubishi said Thursday it aims to set the vehicle's price under three million yen ($32,000).<br /><br />The Japanese automaker said it is considering business cooperation with Peugeot in the area of electric cars, but stressed nothing has been decided at this moment.<br /><br />Apart from Mitsubishi, Japan's No. 1 automaker, Toyota Motor Corp., plans to produce a next-generation electric vehicle by early in the next decade. Nissan Motor Co. has also promised to sell an electric vehicle in Japan and the United States in 2010 and globally by 2012.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">Source: </span><a href="http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/Business/International_Business/Mitsubishi_to_cut_2000_jobs/articleshow/3950149.cms"><span style="font-size:78%;">Timesofindia</span></a></div>Abhijith Jainhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14456215387075479215noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765783735670392827.post-40584191057119004812009-01-08T19:00:00.004+05:302009-01-28T19:19:24.630+05:30Turn NOTEPAD into a diary!<div align="left">Cool Tip of using Notepad!!

Can you think of a laptop without a keyboard? Well, that is hard to imagine for sure. Having said that, Apple has gone ahead with its innovative range of products to introduce the ‘MacBook Wheel’. Take a look at this video to know more about this product.<br /><br /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7cogDPjcEyU&hl=" fs="1" width="425" height="344" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed><br /><br />This is an innovative new laptop with a touch-sensitive click wheel instead of a traditional keyboard. So, Apple’s latest laptop has killed the keyboard that we use to key in data. Yup, no keyboard!<br /><br />This MacBook Click wheel is a sleek touch sensitive IO device, very much like the one found on iPods, and thus the MacBook Wheel will make typing a thing of the past. Looking at this video, I can’t predict how much difficult it would be to use this gadget! You need to wait for at least 3 months to buy this MacBook and be prepared to shell out a minimum of US $2600 to get rid of your keyboard.</div>Abhijith Jainhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14456215387075479215noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5765783735670392827.post-80368332563625926212009-01-02T16:02:00.003+05:302009-01-02T16:07:57.759+05:30Ghajini Makes 90 crores in 5 Days<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sJcJ1OTMwAA/SV3t39s-QYI/AAAAAAAAAas/bquTl1aYuvM/s1600-h/ghajini324.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_sJcJ1OTMwAA/SV3t39s-QYI/AAAAAAAAAas/bquTl1aYuvM/s400/ghajini324.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5286643083314610562" /></a><br /><br />Aamir Khan’s Ghajini is proving to be the biggest hit of all times.
