WINDOWS 7- A Come Back

The World’s most popular operating system is once again setting their foot with their new edition WINDOWS-7. Actually Microsoft had a miserable experience with their previous edition Vista which failed in the market 3 years ago. So they have taken at most care for their new product which is going to hit the market soon (legally).Microsoft has also told that Customers who buy a new PC with Vista will be offered upgrades to Windows 7.

Microsoft's Steve Guggenheimer said: "We've received great feedback from our partners who are looking forward to offering Windows 7 to their customers in time for the holidays."

Mr Guggenheimer said that Microsoft will make an upgrade option available, so PC makers and retail partners can offer customers the ability to purchase a Windows Vista-based PC and install Windows 7 when it is released. He also added that Windows 7 will also have "comparable system requirements"

Windows 7 is expected to be a good come back of Microsoft. Because it promises the usability improvement and simplification of security measures as it caused the frustration in users who used vista. Another added feature of windows 7 is it is faster than vista in terms of start up and shut down sequence of computer.

TAIL BIT-Windows 7 will be officially available to the public on 22nd of October.

Thunder BOLT

Can anybody think that a person would cross 100mts in 9.58 seconds and 200mts in 19.19 seconds? A 23 years old young has set the records of the above. The unstoppable Jamaican Usain Bolt holds the world records of 9.58s in 100mts, formerly by 9.69s and 19.19s in 200mts. Not only this as well as 14.35s in 150mts, 45.28s in 400mts. He would be very relaxed and comfortable in the stadium before he starts his incomparable races. When he was asked about his cool mentality, “I was saying, ‘I look cool,’ ” he said “I was just happy. I was just looking at myself and I was like, ‘That guy’s fast.’ I’m just proud of myself. It’s just a great feeling. I can’t really explain it.” Before Bolt’s career started, Michael Johnson, the great athlete who holds many world records including 200mts was our hero and as the famous quote states “Records are made to be broken”, Johnson’s was broken by Bolt and now all are comparing him with Johnson. But Bolt replied that he really doesn’t like comparing himself and Johnson,just because he trying to be himself and Johnson was a great athlete who revolutionized the sport and Bolt just changed it a little bit. Anyways it is acceptable that he made a tremendous effort to done this. Obviously from the race, he can go faster than the 9.69s in the Beijing Olympics. But we all knew he was having fun in the last 20m, celebrating and breaking the world record. That's awesome. But he can probably go under 9.58 in his forthcoming races, but I am not very good at predictions. I just love to see things unfold. And for sure records are made to be broken; let’s see who will break Bolt’s 9.58s and 19.19s records in the future.

Happy Birthday Chennai

Its time to celebrate this weekend with Chennai. Yes, our Chennai city is having another birthday bash today. Let's see some of the identities of ancient Chennai which are museum, marina beach, st.george fort etc including latest metro rail. But our city is changing with times and now we got some new identities for our city and they are peak hour traffic jam, hot sunny summer, cine malls, IT corridor and the list goes on. We people in this heritage city have also changed with times. As our city lost some of our identities, we also start to lose our identity. We lost our culture, mannerism and well disciplined behaviour in the long travel of the city. It’s one of the safest place in our country and we don’t have any external force to create problem in our city but ourselves. We pollute the city, we just don’t care about it and we exploit by misusing its resources. The worst case is nowadays beaches are becoming strictly prohibited area for children. And I don’t want to mention about the ECR, as you people aware what ECR is famous for. But apart from all these things, Still Chennai is a very secular city and is a mass of classes. People from any class can run their life sophisticatedly with their income. And our city has given people who brought all the richest awards to add a feather in our crown. Dr.Sir.C.V.Raman-noble prize. Our Chevalier Sivaji Ganesan got the prestigious honorary, one day-mayor of New York and he was the second Indian who got this honor after Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. And the latest is Mozart of Madras, music director A.R.Rehman has got two academy awards and one golden globe. When compared to other metro-politan cities, we are well built and very cool. Let us feel proud to be a part of our city.

SAY CHEERS TO ALL

Yes, in a recent research made by Dr. Sei Lee of San Francisco VA Medical Centre and colleagues have found that moderate drinkers are wealthier and more educated than others, also moderate alcohol consumers have a long life which was concluded in the new study. A drink a day mitigates a person’s risk of dying over the next 4 years. After undergoing various experiment and study and also accounting for several factors that affect alcohol use, they found that moderate alcohol consumers were still 28% less likely to die than non-drinkers. The study on this issue was first published in 1923. But still there is a confusion going on in this topic that moderate drinkers are healthier than non-drinkers, or alcohol itself used in moderation benefit health? So in order to get a conclusion for this study they have looked at 12,519 men and women who are aged 55 and older. During the 4 years of follow up, 14% of non-drinkers died, where as 7% of moderate drinkers and 12% of people who consumed 3 or more pegs a day also died. At the end of the day Lee and his colleagues found that people who had a peg a day had a higher socioeconomic status than the non-drinkers as measured by wealth, income and years of education. And an additional information which was concluded in the study was non-drinkers were also more likely to have functional disabilities like difficulties in dressing up themselves, to defeacate and the list goes on. So Drink Less and Stay Healthy. Make sure you dont cross limits. Cheers!!!!!!!!

GOD ONLY KNOWS!!!

Are Indians again got struck in match fixing?

I think you people wouldn’t have forgotten the T-20 World cup Championship which was hosted by England few months ago. In that tournament our Indian team was miserably sent out with super eight. But now the mystery behind that is coming out. In an interview to a leading newspaper Indian Lacto KING has said that “I never thought that I would get involved in match fixing but the amount was huge and I couldn’t control myself” he also added that he takes all the responsibility and the other three key players also co-operated with him by going with his words. They have also told that “we lost to south Africa to prove that we are not in form but this match was not fixed”

But an initial report tells us that Indian spinner has initiated the deal. When he was produced in front of the enquiry chair person he loosens the lays that “the key batsmen of the team started everything so when the top players involved in this why shouldn’t I earn money” (this was a nice justification given for a noble cause!) also he added that “even the most popular first class T20 tournament are being fixed”. One more tail bit info is the board has given a huge amount to get easy teams for us in the league matches!!!! When I read this info I got Bernard Shaw’s famous quote on cricket “11 fools are playing and 11 thousand fools are watching “ but now only the second half is becoming true

Famous Quotes on India (by non-Indians)

Jai Ho!!!!!!! Failed To Be....

Jai ho once again captured the top lines of all newspapers & journals few weeks ago. But this time it failed to make a mark in the history. The word which got the international accreditation by our Rehman Contested in one more competition it was the war of the words that who is going to be the “One Millionth Word” of the Global Language Monitor. As everyone knows English is the one with the borrowed words and still it’s getting words from everywhere in the universe (that’s why it might be termed as universal language???).And the race for the millionth English word finally comes to an end with Web 2.0 winning it.Austin, Texas-based global language tracker, announced the lucky word!!!!. Web 2.0 is defined as a technical term which means “the next generation of World Wide Web products and services”. It has crossed from technical jargon into far wider circulation in the last six months.

And one more interesting thing is the other words which contested in the competition were Jaiho, noob, Slumdog and cloudcomputing. The two Indian words which are extracted from the film failed to make history and the interesting fact is Jaiho- 999,999th word and slumdog- 999,997th word.

In addition, to this 1,000,001st word is Financial Tsunami - The global financial restructuring that seemingly swept out of nowhere, wiping out trillions of dollars of assets, in a matter of months

Tail bit: At Global Language Monitor current rate, English generates about 14.7 words a day or one every 98 minutes.

GET POWER

How many of you are ready to raise your hands and say "I have enough stamina"….. oops!!! I think it’s a wrong question to the youth since we knowingly or unknowingly failed to build it…. Most of us think that stamina is nothing but spending an hour or two in a gym everyday, running around the ground simply termed as jogging, playing etc….. maybe those things helps us to get something related, but most of the doctors preferred MEDITATION… there is nothing to say as this is the way to control your mind, soul etc since everyone knows it… but meditation for 20 minutes per day builds our stamina to the extreme… its interesting and new to us but most of the people would say like its not easy to do, and not that easy to attain that level. Do not listen to them, I say JUST IGNORE THOSE WORDS. Meditation is very easy to do and it comes by daily practice. Its easy to spend 15 to 20 minutes per day instead of wasting energy and time in any other useless methods. And there are too many websites and books to learn how to do meditation coz if you do it wrongly, then it wont help.

ITS TRUE - For your extra information,
You cannot divert your mind when you are involved in two things . One is MEDITATION and other is SEX. Meditation helps to have good sex and increases your strength in bed.

Have you decided to start doing meditation, but have confusion with what and how to do???
Don’t worry it will be continued in chapter-2

Mohanlal, says “we’re trying to nurture local talent as the most successful IPL. The duo has roped in Shashi Tharoor, the new union minister of state for External Affairs as chairman of thier team, to be called city cricketers.

Former Indian player and fielding coach Robin Singh has been signed as the technical director, “ the KCA will approach the BCCI with our proposal and if all goes well we will start our IPL innings next year” concludes Priyadarshan.

Where they went wrong?

In spite of having a good & strong alliance miss.Jayalalitha failed to make a mark in the parliamentary elections 2009. Even though the opposition alliance was very weak and the ruling party had a lot of flaws with them. But still she was unable to finish with a decent total. This is being a big question among the party men. Miss.Jayalalitha was considered as the front runner and the king maker before the poll results were announced. Even congress men were ready to pack AIADMK in their alliance. But what happened they were pushed to a pathetic stage of just winning only 9 seats.
The reasons behind their failures are the three main reasons
· DMDK
· Wrong strategy of campaigning
The first big disaster was DMDK. The party contested in all 40 seats but faced a huge failure even then they have split the anti-DMK votes. Which was initially went to AIADMK. DMDK decided the winning side in 14 constituencies. And they are
· Virudhu nagar, Villupuram , Sriperumbudur
· Theni, Kallakuruchi, Nagapatinam
· Krishnagiri , Siva Gangai, Chennai (central)
· Cuddalore, Tirunelveli , Chennai (north)
· Kanchipuram, Dindigul

In this article I too want to mention the words of the senior journalist Mr.Cho Ramaswamy he said “DMDK is not an alternate for the both Dravidian giants. Those who think it as a alternate are fooling themselves”.
So AIADMK failed to explain the people that votes to DMDK is hopeless and it has no value. If they would have explained this successfully their winning margin would be increased.
The next important reason is miss.Jayalalitha’s wrong strategy of campaign. Actually there are lots of complaints against the ruling party in the state like frequent power cut; high bus fare, rise of inflation etc. but she took the wrong issue in her hand for campaigning and that is Sri Lankan Tamil issue. She concentrated on it more than that of the day today problem which didn’t reach the people properly.
As the assembly elections are ahead Miss.Jayalalitha has to bring DMDK in her allies or she should split the opposition allies if she can make any one of the thing possible. She is sure to get the power.
