There was once this guy who is very much in love with his girl.
This romantic guy folded 1,000 pieces of paper cranes as a gift to his girl.
Although, at that time he was just a small fry in his company, his future doesn't seem too bright, they were very happy together. Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never come back. She also told him that she cannot visualize any future for the both of them, so they went their own ways there and then...
Heartbroken, the guy agreed. But when he regained his confidence, he worked hard day and night, slogging his body and mind just to make something out of himself.
Finally with all the hard work and the help of friends, this guy had set up his own company ...
You never fail until you stop trying. One rainy day, while this guy was driving, he saw an elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the rain walking to some destination. Even with the umbrella, they were still drenched. It didn't take him long to realize they were his girl's parents.
With a heart in getting back at them, he drove slowly beside the couple, wanting them to spot him in his luxury sedan. He wanted them to know that he wasn't the same any more; he had his own company, car, condo, etc. He made it! What he saw next confused him, the couple was walking towards a cemetery, and so he got out of his car and followed...and he saw his girl, a photograph of her smiling sweetly as ever at him from her tombstone and he saw his paper cranes right beside her...
Her parents saw him. He asked them why this had happened. They explained,she did not leave for France at all. She was ill with cancer. She had believed that he will make it someday, but she did not want to be his obstacle... therefore she had chosen to leave him.
Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have. She had wanted
her parents to put his paper cranes beside her, because, if the day comes when fate brings him to her gain...he can take some of those back with him...
Once you have loved, you will always love. For what's in your mind may escape but what's in your heart will remain forever. The guy just wept...The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside her knowing you can't have her, see her or be with her ever again.........hope you understand.
Find time to realize that there is one person who means so much to you, for you might wake up one morning losing that person who you thought meant nothing to you.

Perspective
One day, the father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the express purpose of showing him how poor people live.
They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family.
On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, 'How was the
trip?'
'It was great, Dad.'
'Did you see how poor people live?' the father asked.
'Oh yeah,' said the son.
'So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?' asked the father
The son answered:
'I saw that we have one dog and they had four.
We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden and they have a creek that has no end.
We have imported lanterns in our garden and they have the stars at night.
Our patio reaches to the front yard and they have the whole horizon.
We have a small piece of land to live on and they have fields that go beyond our sight.
We have servants who serve us, but they serve others.
We buy our food, but they grow theirs.
We have walls around our property to protect us, they have friends to protect them.'
The boy's father was speechless.
Then his son added, 'Thanks Dad for showing me how poor we are.'
Isn't perspective a wonderful thing?
Makes you wonder what would happen if we all gave thanks for everything we have, instead of worrying about what we don't have.
Appreciate every single thing you have, especially your friends!

Reflections
Reflections
"A little boy and his father were walking on the mountains.
Suddenly, his son falls, hurts himself and screams:
"AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
To his surprise, he hears the voice repeating,
somewhere in the mountain:
"AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
Curious, the little boy yells: "Who are you?"
He receives the answer: "Who are you?"
And then the boy screams to the mountain: "You're Stupid"
The voice answers: "You're Stupid"
Frustrated at the response, the boy screams: "I Hate You"
He receives the answer: "I Hate You"
He looks to his father and asks: "What's going on?"
The father smiles and says: "My son, pay attention."
The man screams: "You are a champion!"
The voice answers: "You are a champion!"
The boy is surprised, but does not understand.
Then the father explains: "People call this ECHO, but
really this is LIFE. It gives you back everything you
say or do. Our life is simply a reflection of our actions.
If you want more love in the world, create
more love in your heart. If you want people
to respect you, respect them.
This relationship applies to everything, in all
aspects of life. Life will give you back
everything you have given to it.
Your Life is not a Coincidence.
It's a Reflection of You!

உலகின் மிகப்பெரிய அணுபிளவு சோதனை துவக்கம்
ஜெனிவா: உலகின் மிகப்பெரிய அணுபிளவு சோதனை இன்று ஜெனிவாவில் துவங்கி உள்ளது. செயற்கை பிரளயத்தை ஏற்படச் செய்து அதன் மூலம் பூமி மற்றும் உயிர்கள் உருவானதை நிரூபிக்கும் சோதனையில் ஐரோப்பிய ஆய்வாளர்கள் ஈடுபட்டுள்ளனர். இதுவே உலகின் மிகப்பெரிய இயற்பியல் அணுபிளவு சோதனையாக கருதப்படுகிறது. இதில் கடல்மட்டத்திலிருந்து சுமார் 300 அடி ஆழத்திலும், 27 கிமீ தொலைவில் நீள்வட்டப் பாதையிலும் 2 புரோட்டான்களை இயக்கி, அவற்றை வெடிக்கச் செய்து அதன் மூலம் உலகம் உருவானதை அறியும் சோதனையில் ஆய்வாளர்கள் ஈடுபட்டுள்ளனர். நீள்வட்டப்பாதையில் சுமார் ஆயிரம் காந்தப்புல சிலிண்டர்கள் இணைக்கப்பட்ட முனைகளைக் கொண்ட வெவ்வேறு மின் ஆற்றல்களைக் கொண்ட இரு புரோட்டான் அணுக்களை இணைய செய்வதன் மூலம் இந்த செயற்கை பிரளயம் உருவாக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.ஒளி வேகத்தைக் கொண்டு சுமார் 11 ஆயிரம் சுழல் கம்பிகள் ஒவ்வொரு விநாடியின் போதும் சிதைவடைய செய்யப்படுகிறது. சுமார் 4 ஆயிரம் கோடி ரூபாய் செலவில் உருவாக்கப்பட்டு இயங்கி வரும் இந்த ஆய்வகத்தில் உலக நாடுகளைச் சேர்ந்த ஆயிரக்கணக்கான விஞ்ஞானிகள் பணியாற்றி வந்தனர். சுமார் 2 ஆண்டுகளுக்கும் மேலாக நடைபெற்று வரும் இந்த ஆய்வில் இந்திய விஞ்ஞானிகள் 30 பேர் பணியாற்றி வருவது குறிப்பிடத்தக்கது. உலகின் அறிவியல் முக்கியத்துவம் வாய்ந்த இந்த சோதனையின் மூலம் உலகம் தோன்றியதன் ரகசியங்களை அறியலாம் என தெரிவிக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது. உலக அறிவியல் ஆர்வளர்களின் கவனத்தை ஈர்த்துள்ள இந்த செயற்கை பிரளயத்தினால் சுற்றுச் சூழல் பாதிக்கப்படும் என உலக சுற்றுப்புற ஆய்வாளர்கள் தெரிவிக்கின்றனர். ஆனால் இதனால் பாதிப்பு ஏதும் நிகழாது என விஞ்ஞானிகள் தெரிவித்து வருகின்றனர். கதிரியக்க பாதிப்புக்கள் ஏற்படும் அபாயம் உள்ளதால் உலகம் முழுவதும் இந்த சோதனைக்கும் எதிர்ப்பு எழுந்துள்ளது.
Laptop delivers all-day computing
Hewlett-Packard (HP), the world's largest computer company, has developed a new generation of laptops with a 24-hour battery life.
Its new HP EliteBook 6930p can be configured with an ultra-capacity battery to deliver "all-day computing".
The firm says the 24-hour battery means travellers can take more than 10 trips on the Eurostar between London and Paris before recharging their laptop.
HP said it was an "unprecedented milestone in mobile computing".
Ted Clark, of HP's notebook global business unit, said: "All-day computing has been the holy grail of notebook computing.
"With the HP EliteBook 6930p, customers no longer have to worry about their notebook battery running out before their work day is over."
October release
The company said the record battery life arises from a combination of HP engineering and energy-efficient notebook components such as Intel solid-state hard drives (SSD) and mercury-free LED displays.
The optional HP Illumi-Lite LED display boosts battery run time by up to four hours compared to traditional LCD displays, while the Intel SSD provides about a 7% increase in battery life compared to traditional hard drives.
It is worth noting that the 24-hour figure can be reached only by purchasing the ultra-capacity battery and upgrading the base model of the 6930p to include the Illumi-Lite display and 80 gigabyte version of the SSD.
The company says in addition to preserving battery life, tests have also shown that the new Intel SSD boosts overall performance by up to 57%, and data transfer rates are almost six times faster than traditional hard drives.
"Intel architected its new line of high-performance solid-state drives specifically to bring a new level of performance and reliability to the computing platform and make significant impact to the way people use their PCs," said Randy Wilhelm of Intel.
"The HP milestone is an example of the impact of this new level of performance that specifically delivers on lower power consumption for longer battery life."
The new HP EliteBook will be available in October.

In the picture, just look at their condition.. no place to sleep, still they have
made some space for d cat n d dog... water poring from the roof but still

The Power Of "Instead"
Instead Of Seeing Problems,
Look For Opportunities.
Instead Of Chasing Efficiency,
Take The Time To Be Effective.
Instead Of Making Statements,
Make A Point Of Asking Questions.
Instead Of Winning An Argument,
Create A Dialogue In Which Everyone Wins.
Instead Of Fixing Blame,
Team Up With Colleagues To Fix The System.
Instead Of Bemoaning Your Boring Day,
Climb From The Rut And Create A New Path.
Instead Of Getting Buried In Tasks,
Lift Yourself Up With A Mission.
Instead Of Exaggerating Your Perceived Weaknesses,
Exercise Your Real Strengths.
Instead Of Waiting For Perfect Conditions,
Choose Today As The Day For Change.
Instead Of Saying No,
Find A Way To Say Yes.
