Wonderful thought..............
Zindagi hai choti, har pal mein khush raho...
Office me khush raho, ghar mein khush raho...
Aaj paneer nahi hai, dal mein hi khush raho...
Aaj gym jane ka samay nahi, do kadam chal ke hi khush raho...
Aaj Dosto ka sath nahi, TV dekh ke hi khush raho...
Ghar ja nahi sakte to phone kar ke hi khush raho...
Aaj koi naraaz hai, uske iss andaz mein bhi khush raho...
Jise dekh nahi sakte uski awaz mein hi khush raho...
Jise paa nahi sakte uski yaad mein hi khush raho
Laptop na mila to kya, Desktop mein hi khush raho...
Bita hua kal ja chuka hai, usse meethi yaadein hai, unme hi khush raho...
aane wale pal ka pata nahi... sapno mein hi khush raho...
Haste haste ye pal bitaenge, aaj mein hi khush raho
Zindagi hai choti, har pal mein khush raho

Mother's Day Special
A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie. ~Tenneva Jordan
Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn,
Hundreds of bees in the purple clover,
Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn,
But only one mother the wide world over.
~George Cooper
Being a full-time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs... since the payment is pure love. ~Mildred B. Vermont
The sweetest sounds to mortals given
Are heard in Mother, Home, and Heaven.
~William Goldsmith Brown
A suburban mother's role is to deliver children obstetrically once, and by car forever after. ~Peter De Vries
If the whole world were put into one scale, and my mother in the other, the whole world would kick the beam. ~Lord Langdale (Henry Bickersteth)
All mothers are working mothers. ~Author Unknown
It would seem that something which means poverty, disorder and violence every single day should be avoided entirely, but the desire to beget children is a natural urge. ~Phyllis Diller
The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new. ~Rajneesh
Woman in the home has not yet lost her dignity, in spite of Mother's Day, with its offensive implication that our love needs an annual nudging, like our enthusiasm for the battle of Bunker Hill. ~John Erskine
A Freudian slip is when you say one thing but mean your mother. ~Author Unknown
Sweater, n.: garment worn by child when its mother is feeling chilly. ~Ambrose Bierce
Women's Liberation is just a lot of foolishness. It's the men who are discriminated against. They can't bear children. And no one's likely to do anything about that. ~Golda Meir
God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers. ~Jewish Proverb
Motherhood is priced
Of God, at price no man may dare
To lessen or misunderstand.
~Helen Hunt Jackson
Biology is the least of what makes someone a mother. ~Oprah Winfrey
You don't really understand human nature unless you know why a child on a merry-go-round will wave at his parents every time around - and why his parents will always wave back. ~William D. Tammeus
Now that... my kids are grown, I understand how much work and love it takes to raise and to keep a family together. The example of your strength, devotion, and patience is now rippling through the generations. Thank you! ~Forest Houtenschil
My mom is a neverending song in my heart of comfort, happiness, and being. I may sometimes forget the words but I always remember the tune. ~Graycie Harmon
Making the decision to have a child is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body. ~Elizabeth Stone
Setting a good example for your children takes all the fun out of middle age. ~William Feather, The Business of Life, 1949
Your responsibility as a parent is not as great as you might imagine. You need not supply the world with the next conqueror of disease or major motion-picture star. If your child simply grows up to be someone who does not use the word "collectible" as a noun, you can consider yourself an unqualified success. ~Fran Lebowitz, "Parental Guidance," Social Studies, 1981
This heart, my own dear mother, bends,
With love's true instinct, back to thee!
~Thomas Moore
Getting down on all fours and imitating a rhinoceros stops babies from crying. (Put an empty cigarette pack on your nose for a horn and make loud "snort" noises.) I don't know why parents don't do this more often. Usually it makes the kid laugh. Sometimes it sends him into shock. Either way it quiets him down. If you're a parent, acting like a rhino has another advantage. Keep it up until the kid is a teenager and he definitely won't have his friends hanging around your house all the time. ~P.J. O'Rourke
I don't care how poor a man is; if he has family, he's rich. ~Dan Wilcox and Thad Mumford, M*A*S*H, "Identity Crisis,"
Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away. ~Dinah Craik
Where we love is home - home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts. ~Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit. ~Albert Schweitzer
You can always tell a real friend: when you've made a fool of yourself he doesn't feel you've done a permanent job. ~Laurence J. Peter
Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. ~Marcel Proust
If I had a single flower for every time I think about you, I could walk forever in my garden. ~Attributed to Claudia Ghandi

With sales and marketing operations spread across key cities in India and a software development centre in Bangalore, Cisco dominates the networking market in core technologies of routing and switching, as well as WLAN and network security.
Globally, the company claims to focus on collaborative efforts that give employees more say in decision-making. Flexibility, trust, and empowerment are touted as the hallmarks of the employee-employer relationship at Cisco. Flexi work time, telecommuting, parenting and work opportunities also go a long way in making the company an employee favorite.
LG Electronics India
At no. 8 on the list of Best Employers in India is another technology company LG Electronics.
In India for a decade now, LG is the market leader in consumer durables and recognized as a leading technology innovator in the information technology and mobile communications business.
The company provides array of employee-friendly programs, like “a family ambassador programme” where a dedicated mentor goes to the employee's house and talks to his family, discuss their problems. Also, employees are given a chance to visit Korea on completion of specific years of service. LG also believes in no demarcation between junior and senior employees and in February, the company reportedly gave a special 150% ‘teamwork’ bonus to employees who completed two years in the organization.
NetApp India
Next IT company on the list is NetApp, ranked at no. 14. NetApp creates innovative storage and data management solutions that help the customers to accelerate business breakthroughs and achieve outstanding cost efficiency.

Perfect refuge in the zoo.
At Berlin Zoo 34-year-old woman fell into the enclosure for polar bears.
Zoo workers were able to rescue the woman, although one of the bears managed to bite it a few times.
By the way, the world-famous Knut was sitting in the same enclosure, but participation in the attack on the man did not take. Injured taken to hospital for treatment and Virchow survey.
The police assumes that the woman may suffer emotional distress as a number of witnesses the incident claimed that it
« is not accidentally fell into the enclosure, and it bailed itself «
Problems involved in escaping earth
1) Earth's Gravity
The first and foremost problem to be dealt by any man aspiring to start on his voyage to space is gravity.
Earth is a pretty massive object and thus any object on the surface of the earth (irrespective of its size) experiences a very large pull by earth and hence virtually remains bound to earth.(see physics world- Newton 's gravitational law) (not a part of site tour)
So as to break these bonds with earth, the object attempting to leave earth must be given a certain velocity called as the escape velocity. (See physics world) (not a part of site tour)
The value of escape velocity is 2.38 Km/s If the object doesn't attain escape velocity, it will either crash back into the Earth, or orbit around it, as satellites or space shuttles do.
By Newton 's first law, any mass whose motion is accelerated decelerated or has its direction changed will resist this change by developing reaction force.
Additional energy must be supplied to the object, keeping these forces in consideration.
2) Atmospheric Resistance
Another problem encountered while ascent is resistance of atmosphere. Air resists moving objects. As the velocity of this moving body increases, the resistance also increases.
So additional energy (energy that the space vehicle requires for overcoming air drag) must be supplied to it along with the energy required to overcome gravity and to travel in free space.
These problems must be taken into account when the space vehicle is being constructed.
Now let us see the fuel which is used to provide thrust to space vehicles.
