How To Find Good Hotels

How do you ever find good hotels? If you have gone out to a far away unknown place, how will you decide whether a hotel is good or not. Finding good hotels is a little tricky but not difficult. There are several ways that will help you find good hotels at the place where you are living. Some hotel finding techniques are basic common sense while a few others require some effort from your side. Finding good hotels at an unknown place will get you into stomach trouble which is undesirable.

The best technique so far is to ask someone. If you do not know the regional language just say hotel and he will obviously guide you to the best hotel in that place. If you can find hotels where the food is cooked right in front of your eyes, you can decide whether the hotel is good or not depending on the type of kitchen they have. Good chefs are generally very clean and do not prepare food like the hawkers who prepare things very quickly to reap some quick money from their customers.

The next best option to find good hotels is to tell an auto driver to take you to a good hotel. This however has one drawback: the auto driver may take you to a far away hotel just to reap extra money from you. Never let the auto drivers know that you are new to that place. But, there is one more technique which will undoubtedly lead you to the best hotel.

It is a common guess that good people like good hotels. But, when it comes to finding a hotel where you get very good and delicious food: you need to hold a person who loves to eat delicious food. By nature many people who are the aesthetics of food are a little fat. People with a very big tummy eat anything which lies in front of them. So, approach a person who has a balanced and good looking tummy to guide you to go for a good hotel in the nearby area. Do not find your good hotel through the internet. There are a few guidelines given to tourists by the government. See if you can find the best hotels of the place in it. Tagging a hotel and praising it is a child's play and will not help you by any means to get a good hotel. Different people have different tastes and hence the reviews will be so confusing that you will never find your good hotel with this technique.

Most of the techniques for finding good hotel that are stated above will no doubt take you to a good hotel but if your day is perfect they will take you to the best hotel. Do not forget to tell the types of dish that you would like to prey on at the good hotel you are looking out for. Many hotels are good at preparing limited dishes which favor the taste of the cook. Make sure that your good hotel will give you the dishes that you love the most. Going to a good North Indian hotel will not fetch you good South Indian food or vice-versa. Have a good time searching for your good hotel.

Robot Movie Review

Robot movie review: Robot is a long awaited film in India and is a movie which will be loved by the Indians. Robot is a movie which has its origins from the Tamil movie called Endhiran. Rajni the style king and south Indian superstar has now got a film that will give him a new status and fame because of this unique movie called Robot.

Robot's base story: A great scientist (Rajnikant of course) designs a good Robot. But, he wants a Robot which is quite different from other Robots. He sees that the only difference between man and machine is that humans have emotions and Robots don't. Rajni simulates some AI into the Robot (which looks like him) and gives it the emotions that humans normally go through. The Robot then falls in love with Rajni's girlfriend (Ash). And then the war of love begins.

Is Robot different than iRobot: The story is definitely different, but, Robot has got Rajnikant. Millions and crores of rupees have been spent in order to get the desired visual effects. You can assure yourself of this fact that this film does not have much of iRobot in it (except for having a Robot which can understand feelings as in iRobot).

Robot visual effects: More than fifteen crore rupees have been invested just in order to get the desired visual effects. There are very strange instances to be shot in the film. Robot will be showing too many superhero stunts in it. If you are a superman or spiderman fan, hold your seats: you will soon become a Rajni fan after seeing the movie. The climax of the movie is completely action filled and is worth taking a look at. Throughout the movie there will be Rajni's unique style to keep you off the cauldron of boredom.

Robot music: There is A R Rahman to fill magic into your ears this time. There are Hollywood technicians and stunt masters to take care of the stunts and visual effects in Robot. The songs are pretty good and so are the actors. Both Rajni and Ash have a solid fans' base who will support the success of the movie. Moreover the producers will not hassle to invest any amount of money into the film. Rajni films are always made a hit by his wonderful fans.

Will Robot be a hit?

Will Robot Be A Hit

Will Bollywood film Robot be a hit: Will Robot stir the airs at the boxoffice with superstar Rajnikant and the wonderful and sizzling Aishwarya Rai. The movie has got very good songs. People are waiting impatiently for Robot (2010) which will be releasing very soon. Why are people waiting for Robot?

Robot will not become a flop: Because it has got the South Indian superstar: Rajnikant who has decided to stop acting and is yet rocking on the silver screen with films which sometimes do not suit his caliber. Rajnikant fans were disappointed a bit with his previous film Shivaji (which was a big hit by the way) and are now expecting Rajni to satisfy their thirst for seeing their stylish hero in the film Robot.

What is special in Robot: There are a few very good songs in Robot if you ever bothered taking a look at them. Ash is found on the screen after a long time. And there is also another film with Hrithik that Ash is shooting out for (apart from Robot).; If you ever get the time take a look at the song Kilimanjaro, it just stole my heart. Moeover Robot is a scientific fiction movie: something which is novel to the Indians.

Comments on Robot: If you ever take a look at what people say about Robot, you will find out that there are Tamil fans who are saying that Bollywood is not creating anything now and is instead stealing many films from Hollywood(Murder), Telugu (Wanted) and Tamil film (Ghajini) industries. Robot is also a remake of Endhiran (Tamil).

We have to wait and see till the robot arrives: Whatever be the case, there are plenty of Rajni fans who can promote the film (Robot) and make it a super hit in no time. Don't know about Ash, but, the style of Rajni will definitely make this film earn a lot. Let's wait and see what happens with Robot.

Is Having A Girlfriend The Trend Of The Day?

Has having a girlfriend become the trend of the day? No, it hasn't. People who do not live in metropolitan cities have not yet taken to this trend of having girlfriends and boyfriends. Literally speaking, sensible people are sensible enough to judge that the whole whirlpool of having a girlfriend and boyfriend is just a big time pass. People who do not get interest in watching television feel that they should have someone who will care for them and keep them happy all the time. Let us take a look at why girls and boys are so curious about finding a match for themselves at a younger age.

Girls are emotional beings. If the woman in Adam And Eve series would not eat the fruit of knowledge the story of Adam And Eve would have been much different. not only did the woman listen to the serpent and eat the fruit, but, she also convinced her husband and made him share her load of sin. That how girls are. When they are happy they make everyone happy and when they are sad they curse every particle around them. There are many varieties of girls and each of them have their own reasons for having a boyfriend.

Some girls search for a boyfriend because they have no money to spend. Two people spending money means double happiness in the eyes of such girls. They are not emotionally attached to anyone except money. The second type of girl is the SRK fan. Such girls are die-hard fans of some bollywood hero and want to see a filmy life. And every film nowadays has love stories to make conditions of such girls even worse. To such girls life itself is a big film and they take their boyfriends to be a representation of their favorite hero. The next girl is the pervert girl. She just wants someone to keep her warm for a while. They are in no way attached to their boyfriends. they just want to have some fun and they have it whenever they want from whom so ever they like. Coming to the next category: girls who want to choose their own grooms. Sadly such girls always get into the traps of boys who love the idea of one night stand. They are a little innocent and do not have a practical way of judging the people around them.

Coming to boys: there are only two types of boys in this world: one is the pervert boy and another one is the saintly one. It is obvious why the first person searches for a girl. The second type does not search for a girl. If at all he falls in love with someone he proves himself to be a true lover. Some boys search girls only because they are too curious to see the life after marriage. Boys are not much complicated. It is easier to find the intentions of a insane boy. But, this is possible only by a very cunning guy who knows how to read the brains of other people.

But, how did the trend of having girlfriends and boyfriends arrive? It was because of the introduction of sex education. Boys and girls started seeking life after marriage and hence fell a prey to this monstrous whirlpool. And another reason why the youth feel excited to seek a girlfriend or a boyfriend is because of the movies and their favorite film stars. The best reason for being misguided is having a friend who has gone through all kinds of rubbish in this field. If there is yet another reason which has not been unfolded in this article feel free to use the comments section. And yes, some youngsters do this because they do not get a necessary dose of love their parents. Have a nice day!

Flowers And Their Effects

If you have been to someones house which has been designed or at least planned by a good interior designer you will find at least a flower pot at various places in the house even if there are no flowers in it. Why is it that the interior designers use the flower pot concept for every house (or in some cases every room)? The reasons are many. But, I will take the delight of naming only the most important ones.

Flower pots add to the beauty of the house and so do the flowers. A flowerpot without any flowers in it is equal to a head without any brain residing in it. If you have consulted a good interior designer he will buy you or at least recommend flowerpots whose colors are contrast to the wall colors. This makes the visitors attention to be centered towards the flowerpot. This eventually does mean that every visitor coming to your house will ponder his eyes over the flowerpot. If there should be any flowers placed in the pot is now up to you to decide.

Now let us come to the flowers part. Why do we keep flowers in the house. It adds beauty to the house is one reason, but, the main reason why many people used flowers in their house was because their loved the smell of the flowers. Yes, if incense sticks have their aroma roaming throughout your house for an hour at the most, the flowers will have their essence spread throughout the room even after they wither away.

Now coming to the part that many people are curious about. The flowers also activate the romantic side of a person. Even a stone hearted person will become romantic if the right blend of flowers are used in the rooms. Not to mention that these same flowers are also used in a wrong manner by the adulterous villains of the society. The flowers are also said to be the most dearest to gods.

Do remember that every flower does not have the same effect. If some flowers make you an admirer of beauty another set of flowers make you creative and even poetic thus bringing peace, happiness and joy to your family. Marigold is not a flower to be kept in the vase. Neither was it ever used to praise the Divine. If you read the Puranas you will get to know that a Demi-Goddess had created this flower only for herself. Let us take a look at the flowers which look best in the vase.

First is the rose. You can decorate it with leaves of the show-plant trees. Roses bless the house with innocence and happiness. No wonder their aroma is so sweet. Next flower is the lotus (which has great spiritual value attached to it). This flower has been dearer to the Gods and Goddesses of literally all countries throughout the world. Not to forget our fair Daffodils which are a good treat for the flowerpots. But, of course they wither away too soon. Then there is the May flower, Achilea, Ladies Mantle, Snapdragon, Lily of the valley, Chrysanthemum, the ever so lovely African Daisy and the bird of paradise flower.

Do keep one thing in mind that you want flowers which last for a longer time and look very fresh. Whether you buy flowers or pluck them from your garden, please use flowers which have a strong stalk and strong petals. There are sponges available in the market to hold the flowers together, but, they do not last for a longer time and are to be disposed after few uses. Instead use water: this keeps the flowers fresh. Lilies of all types are very good to be kept in the flower pots.

Interior Designing | Modern Trends In Interior Designing

Interior designing is a very good profession which gives the modern clean and beautiful looks to a simple house. Any person considers consulting an interior designer for the decoration of his house in order to decide the interior design which will make his house a heaven from within. Yes interior designers with great skills can make a small house a paradise which is never thought of. Modern trends demand an interior designer who not only knows about illumination and other interior designing skills, but also someone who knows vaastu shastra and the chinese Feng Shui which helps maintain the balance of the elements of the house thus bringing beauty to the house and peace to those who live within it.

Yes, interior designing is no normal job nowadays because people are a bit more worried about the cultural and religious significance of the house. Recent surveys show that many people do believe in Vaastu Shastra nowadays. There are people who consult a vaastu shastra expert after getting a design plan from an interior designer. If you are planning to become an interior designer you should have some basic vastu knowledge in order to satisfy the demands of your customer. Usually many people tend to change the design of the house after consulting a vaastu expert who tells them that the design given by the interior designer is absolutely wrong. If you have some vaastu knowledge it is worth mentioning it in your business card or online profile so that people can be convinced that they have met the right interior designer.

Interior designing is an art. An interior designer is usually stylish in nature. The way a person dresses you can make out whether he is artistic or not. A professional interior designer will wear formal dresses while a casual and happy go lucky designer will wear funky looking yet beautiful clothes which mark his wonderful taste. However the best way to judge a person is to take a look at his work. Modern trends require everything which make your house look beautiful yet spacey and large. A small room with less furniture looks large. On the other hand a large room with too much furniture stuffed into it looks smaller. Thus you need to tell your interior designer the way you want your house to look. The greeks were very good interior designers. Their pillars and arches gave a new touch to interior designing.

The best architecture and interior designing is seen in the Mughal time monuments. India is blessed with very good designers who caved and sculpted the ancient temples in India. Interior deigning is not a new subject. Having a beautiful interior design has been the dream of every house owner since ages together. There is no castle in this world whose owner had neglected the need of an interior designer to make his house so beautiful. Do remember the following things which will help you with some quick interior designing of your house which suits the need of the modern times

  • Having a flower vase in every room of your house is a good taste as it suits the modern trends of interior designing. Be careful with the colors of the vase. Light blue calms the eyes and can be kept at a place receiving more sunlight. Pink on the other hand is a symbol of love and bring romantic feelings (some people feel the same with red). A good interior designer will tell you yo have more pinks and reds in bedrooms. Flowers should match the color of the vase. In some cases some contrast colors work just fine.
  • Do not paint all the walls with the same shade. Interior designers use darker or lighter shades to make things look more natural and pleasing to the mind.
  • Interior designing stresses the need of curtains for a house. A curtain with good flower designs and lighter shades of your favorite color look very good and beautify the interiors of your house.
  • Use incense sticks. The aroma makes you feel pleasant and lightens up the moods of all the family members. Room re-fresheners are also good yet I prefer a good incense stick as its aroma spreads throughout the house thus giving everyone a pleasant feeling.
  • Granite is better as compared to tiles. Interior designers will advise you to go for tiles as they are cheaper and do not make your legs to slip while you are walking. Marble is a good option but an experienced interior designer will not forget to tell you that it gets damn cold during winter times and hence it is better to avoid a floor of marbles.
  • Modern interior designers advise off-white shades as they are more pleasing and have a good convincing effect on everyones eyes. This is the same reason as to why people wear white shirts with black pants while going for an interview. Some people just hate a few colors. Hence it is always better to use good and pleasant off-white shades while painting the house.
  • Wardrobe should be purely your choice. After all you are the one to use the wardrobe and not your interior designer. The designing of the wardrobe should be completely done by you such that it suits your needs.
  • You may use any bed but be sure to choose proper bedsheets that match the theme of the room in which the bed is placed. Interior designers always suggest their customers to go for a double bed, though a few couple like it to have a smaller bed which keeps them together for a longer time!
  • Do not use fancy switch boards. they destroy the beauty of the interior decoration.
  • Decorated ceiling are the trend of the modern day. They are cheaper too.
  • A chandelier in the main hall is a basic necessity if you own a house. Even a simple and cheap one will do the trick for decorating the interior design of your house.
Use the comments section to tell others about any other interior designs that you prefer in order to beautify your house and make it the small little palace of the modern day.

Apple Macbook | Apple Macbook Laptops

Apple Mac Laptops or notebooks are the trend of the day and there is no means that this blog on modern trends and technology can ignore the Apple Mac notebooks. Yes they are compact, they are cool and they are extremely safe for surfing the internet. This is a special post which will basically tell you which among the Apple Mac notebooks is an excellent choice. We all know this very well that Apple has three most popular Mac notebooks let us take a look around at each of its notebook's unique features.


  1. Apple Macbook: Oh yes this is the one which can melt the most hard and rocky heart in this world.A good 13.3" display makes the Apple Macbook a sweet portable laptop notebook. A good core2duo processor drives the Macbook faster than a steed. Good designing and a beautiful user interface of the Apple Macbook makes people get tempted over it. The interface is clean. The only thing which you might be troubled with if you are new to Apple Macbook is the track-pad. There is no left click or right click button. There is one large track-pad which works with gestures and it works pretty well (that's why we love Apple). A good graphics card makes sure that the games and other multimedia stuff give you a good and decent graphics interface on the Apple Macbook notebook. 256MB DDR3 SDRAM NVIDIA graphics memory (shared with the main memory) along with a 2GB DDR3 SDRAM (can also be upgraded to 4GB) makes the Apple Macbook a special deal for a compact and powerful laptop notebook. 250GB hard disk drive runs at a speed of around 5400 rpm. Overall Apple Macbook is a special deal. But all this does not make the Macbook accessible to every man on the street. Apple Macbook is well priced according to its specifications. This Macbook from Apple comes in five unique flavors (hero1, hero2, hero3, hero4, hero5).
  2. Apple Macbook Air: The Apple Macbook Air also comes with 13.3" screen and looks really really compact. This is a very very thin laptop notebook from Apple and serves the purpose of being called as Macbook Air. As the name states the Macbook Air is very light in weight. The minus point however is that the Macbook air is built with a SSD (solid state drive) drive. It also gives you the option of an external USB Macbook Air SuperDrive. The quality of the drives is excellent no doubt, the SSD's run like our flash drives. And there is no slot for putting a DVD or a CD into this computer. Is Apple crazy? No it is smart it includes a WiFi feature in its notebook using which you can easily access the DVD by running it in another device which has WiFi enabled in it. Some of you might not like the idea. But, the Macbook air is an ideal notebook for college students and journalists who need to carry a Notebook wherever you go. If you need an ultra compact notebook to carry along wherever you go the Macbook air is the laptop for you. And yes it comes with 2GB RAM and a 256 MB shared RAM for the NVIDIA graphics card processor. Of course this Macbook from Apple is really very costly and is a royal man's treat.
  3. Apple Macbook Pro: Yep the Macbook Pro comes in different sizes ranging from a mere 13" to a larger sized 15" and the largest one of 17". Intel corei5 running at 2.53GHz speed and 3MB L3 cache (or a Intel icore7 of 2.66 GHz speed  and 4MB L3 cache) makes this one a very snappy Macbook laptop notebook. The NVIDIA graphics processor now has 256MB GDDR3 RAM (some configurations also offer 512MB video RAM). There are many different configurations listed and they all are tempting me to put my hands on this wonderful laptop notebook from Apple's Macbook series. Even this one runs an SSD storage drive. This one has a drive for inserting and reading or writing DVD's. As the name indicates the Apple Macbook pro is definitely is a pro. It is just you who has to choose the right one which best suits your budget. It also has WiFi enabled which gives you a faster internet access to the WiFi modems.
All in all the Apple Macbooks notebooks are just fabulous (though they are a rich man's treat). Apple is a quality brand and will always be one. The Macbooks from Apple are a seperate niche and just cannot be compaed with any of our traditional and cheap laptop notebooks. Buy a Macbook only if you need one. there are many notebooks that can be used for showing off. But these Macbooks from Apple are power performers and run like the fastest laptop steeds with crackers tied on their tails. I will be back with a few more gadgets from Apple till then enjoy the specs reviews of the Apple Macbook laptop notebooks. Have a great Apple Macbook pro day. And yes none of the Apple Macbook laptops come at a rate of less than thousand dollars if you want the maximum out of it.

Get to know why people are crazy about the Apple brand

Apple A Niche Brand

Apple has been a remarkable brand and has maintained its fame and love with its aficionados since ages together. Yes Apple has built a solid brand with its outstanding products. Never to forget the Apple i-Pods which brought magic into the ears of teenagers. Even today Apple is known for its outstanding products which literally have no competition. When it comes to rating products Apple is never mixed with products of other brands. Because Apple has built such a solid base for itself that its products belong to a completely different niche. Apple products are compared only with Apple products.

People who buy one Apple product keep on buying Apple products forever. Apple's i-Tunes, Apple's mobiles, Apple's laptops (these are the hottest deals around). With its difficult to hack operating system, Apple caught the attention of the internet surfers. Mobile or laptop or PMP3 players Apple has been leading the race with unique people which people fall in love with in a very less time.

The mobile market is now blooming with new Apple phones coming up with exciting new features at reasonable rates. Yes, Apple has built its brand. A brand which has negligible flaws. In fact the flaws are so negligible that Apple will never see a downfall from any products arising from its competitors. The buyers of Apple products are targeted loyal customers. They are always biased towards buying Apple products. Such is the magic of Apple. Thanks to Apple for giving us such wonderful products. Not to forget the Mac book air series which caught the audience by a storm.

Apple has built such a wonderful brand that one of the major flaws in its Apple iPhone4 was unable to bring a sour name to the sweet Apple. In fact Apple claims that Apple iPhone4 has been the best product that it has built so far. It seems that the engineers finished the product in a rush and hence the products testing engineers of Apple did not get a chance to do a complete detailed testing of the iPhone4. Though a simple solution masked the black spot on Apple, some of the Apple lovers really felt that their favorite brand had let them down with a flaw in their product. Apple by all means did all that it possibly could to gain the confidence of its aficionados. Apple lovers in India are awaiting the arrival of Apple iPhone4 in India. Let the world know how you like the Apple brand and its Apple branded products using the comments section.

Salman Khan Styles| Salman Khan Fashion

Salman Khan us known for his unique styles. Salman Khan is very particular when it comes to style statements. Salman Khan's bracelet, his shirts, his body all have a different style statement. No wonder this unique style statement of his made Salman Khan the seventh handsome of the world in a very short span of time. Salman Khan's styles in his films were so diverse and tested that most of them became an instantaneous hit. Salman Khan's Tere Naam wig made his fans go all wild! Salman Khan has a style statement which everyone wants to copy. Even Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan did not match the style craze from their fans as was the case with Salman Khan's fans in the earlier days. You may also see which modern hairstyles and modern outfits are the latest trend of the day.

Salman Khan had shown his ruling style statement with his bald looks for the Coca-Cola ad. Even with a bald head Salman Khan stirred the airs of Bollywood and got much hype from all his fans. Salman Khan is fond of torn jeans. Be it a t-shirt or a formal shirt Salman Khan looks best in both (and also without both) because of his excellent body-fittings. Salman Khan has always been coming up with new and unique styles and this is what makes the girls go crazy about him. Remember the long haired Salman Khan in Andaaz Apna Apna? The pony tail hairstyle in Yuvraj was also a unique style statement that we got to see from our macho man Salman Khan.

In recent films like Veer and Dabangg Salman Khan is coming up with a few more unique and different styles. In Dabangg Salman Khan has said a temporary good bye to his abs and has tried to show a "tummy topped up with a mustache style of an Indian police officer" to the audience. We saw a different Salman Khan in Kyun Ki. No wonder he acted so well but Salman Khan had to face a few controversies which never let him succeed. One such controversy also tried to defame Salman Khan's blockbuster hit movie: Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya? With Salman we are never bothered to wonder as to who has the greatest body in Bollywood?

One thing about Salman Khan which probably both his competitors could not digest was his stylish body. With a massive chest and well filled biceps Salman Khan is always fond of removing shirt and exposing his body in almost all his films. Even in crowded places Salman Khan was found pulling his shirt off and throwing it towards his die hard crazy fans. Though Salman Khan is always surounded with unique controversies his films are even today loved by one and all as the heroines are not much exposed in his films. Most of Salman Khan films are family entertainment films. There are already too many people doing extensive research on Salman Khan's Dabangg movie review. This time Salman Khan will be found in a completely different avatar. There are too many comments saying that he will be a super-hit this time. We just need to wait and see how this new avatar of Salman Khan will stir the airs of Bollywood at the box-office!

Future Of Technolgy

Future Of Technology can be a very hard thing to decide upon. Technologies which were science fiction a few years ago have now become reality. With the processors (technology) getting powerful day-by-day technical gadgets have entered into dimensions which were never even thought of by our forefathers. In the past three decades technology has been showing us days which were just a dream a few decades. With the advancement in technology we are seeing its advantages and disadvantages too. Near are the days when the future of technology as dreamed by the scientists once upon a time will come into existence. Scientists have struggled for years together to see days when technology will become so powerful that scientists will not be left with any more work whatsoever. Well, then what is the future of technology?

The future of technology is very clear. With advancements in nanotechnology we will be able to see gadgets which seem a dream now. Live 3D online chatting on the cell-phone? No, instead I would say lie 3D chatting on a wrist-watch! Yes the Spy-Kids gadgets will come into action within the next few decades. We will find kids playing with gadgets which are completely automated.

There will be automatic robots, automatically controlled power systems. Even nuclear reactors will be controlled using robots. There will be plastic and plastic everywhere. Automatically fold-able furniture, an automatic robot which will clean the house, the furniture, the dishes and maybe even sing songs for you and change playlists just at the sign of your command. Such days are not far is what most of the advancements in technology are telling us.

The future of technology will also brig automated cars which will drive you safely from home to office and back home. Such automated high technology equipped cars will also be able to drive you to far off places and you can be so sure of the efficiency of the system that you can sleep till the destination arrives. Technology will also enable the car to wake you up once the destination arrives!

If all this looks amusing on one hand, on the other hand the future of technology brings fear to those who know about the banes of a fully developed technical world. Rich will become even more richer and comfortable with the advancements in technology, while the poorer will become even more poor. More machines means less number of laborers required (which saves on cost). Future advancements in technology will thus render many people jobless. Not just that but there will be a sudden disturbance in the balance of nature. Such highly advanced technology may bring days where there will be no more petroleum fuel left for transport. Abundant pollution will cause greater holes in the ozone layer thus increasing hazards of global warming.

Future of technology promises a very comfortable life no doubt, but, I personally think that technology is best what it is today. Future of technology should instead focus on bringing new vehicles and machines which are more eco-friendly and do not consume the non-renewable sources of energy. Recent surveys have estimated that by 2050 there will be no petrol left below the earth's crust: this eventually means that people will again have to stick to the traditional transportation sources: bullock-carts, walking, etc. Though the future of technology shows great advances geared towards one field more specifically: robotics. Future of technology also promises interactive gadgets and 3D projectors which will make one of the most awaited science fiction come true. But all this means more disk space in order to store several images for showing a 3D display. Recognizing this, Blu-ray technology discs will be developed such that a single disk will be able to store 1 TB of data, and I am not lying the research on this future technology is going on! To tell the world about your view about the future of technology please feel free to use the comments section.

  • Sometimes "old is gold" statement stands true. Older trends can also be followed after all they were the trends which made people go crazy about them once upon a time.
  • Good neatly tucked-in shirt makes you look like the perfect modern gentleman. Do iron your shirts everyday.
  • A good tie which covers the buttons properly and has a well made knot will make you look clean and trendy.
  • Shave yourself once a week. At other times use a trimmer manage the growing beard if it does not look good. See shaving tips and tricks to avoid rough skin due to shaving.
  • In modern times girls and companies demand men who have clean shaved faces.
  • If your eyes get red due to some reason (in many cases it is pollution) consider buying a well designed spectacle or a trendy goggle. Frame-less spectacle does not look good on everyone even if it is the trend of the modern times.
  • A good and eloquent English will also help you make some real difference in the way you present things. Modern trends expect you to be competitive and well versed to steal the attention of the crowd.
  • Good ironed trousers are a must. Psychologists have shown that usually a girl looks at the shoes and the trousers of a guy before pursuing friendship with him.
  • Use brylcream if necessary to hold your hair intact if you have very silky and soft hair. Do not leave your hairs dry. A little oil or conditioner applied to the hair makes your hair look healthy and shiny.
Follow the above trends and stay happy.

How To Select A Good Raakhi

Selecting a good trendy Raakhi could be a tough job if you do not have a good idea of the latest styles. Below I give a list of guidelines for selecting a good and trendy Raakhi:

  • The Raakhi should be stylish but not too much.
  • Try to select simple and beautiful ones which will look very good on your brothers' hand.
  • If you are searching for costlier Raakhis use the internet to order one.
  • Buy Raalkhis with flashy colors.
  • Bright colored Raakhis are good for swarthy hands whereas dark colored ones look good on brighter hands.
  • Sometimes Raakhis with Om or Ganesha or any such symbols can be used to make the occasion more remarkable and look more auspicious as it is supposed to be.
  • Some Raakhis have a decorated bob which is stitched to the thread. Avoid buying these as they will get damaged once your brother washes his hands.
With all the above guidelines buying a good Raakhi should be as simple as breathing air. Modern Trends and technology wishes all its viewers a very happy Raakhi festival. Happy Rakshabandhan.

Special Trendy Gifts For Rakshabandhan

With the festival of Rakshabandhan arriving all the brothers and sisters are again put into the dilemma of choosing the best possible gift for their brothers and sisters. As usual I am here to help the Rakshabandhan brothers and sisters to buy the best possible gifts which will make the day of all boys and girls.

If you are a girl looking forward to buy a cool trendy gift for your brother I would suggest you to look out for cool trendy watches. Lifestyle has recently announced a good offer which gives you two excellent trendy watches just for Rs499. This gives you two good looking trendy watches for two brothers. In case you have only one brother you get an added advantage of gifting both the cool looking trendy watches to him so that he can choose any amongst the two cool watches for different occasions demanding different trends. If your brother is a college student consider gifting him a good rechargeable electric beard trimmer. These things can be kept lifelong and will remind your love to your brother when you are not with him.

If you are a boy looking for buying a gift for your dear sister there are many cool trendy chocolate packs available if your sister loves them. Other than that a make-up set (girls usually love this one) would also prove to be a cool trendy gift for your dearest sister. Buying teddy-bears is a bad idea. You need to gift something which is trendy and is of use for your sister. A good trendy watch is also a best buy. Girls love new clothes! But, make the occasion a bit more special by buying your sister something which she has never worn before. A cool trendy sari or a cool trendy chudidar should make the occasion even more special and auspicious. Choose gifts such that they shall bring tears in your sister's eyes. Even if you are the modern trendy cool guy there should be an Indian heart behind it to get something which your sister will love the most.

Modern trends and technology wishes you and your family a very very happy Rakshabandhan.

Passwords | Strong Passwords

Creating strong passwords is a very tedious job if you are new to the internet. Though there are many people who can tell you about the various ways that you can use a strong password I can tell you about a few tricks using which you can create strong and easy to remember passwords.

Never create passwords that can be easily guessed. If you think that a password like benediction cannot be hacked you are wrong. Hackers use softwares which use every possible english word, phrase and even quotes to hack into user accounts. And finally do not use your phone number as a password.

Using capital words is a good password creating strategy. There are a few other techniques for writing strong passwords some of which include @,# and many such symbols that cannot be easily guessed. Using 7 for T and many such numbers instead of letters makes it pretty hard for the hackers to hack your password.

Use underscores in passwords if you like them. A password should be either very long or very tedious such that it is very difficult for everyone to remember it even if they see it. Creating strong passwords is a skill and you can use it very easily. Creating strong passwords is fun too. After creating a very strong non-hackable password you will feel very happy to have created one!

Strong passwords are generally required so as to ensure that your personal information never gets lost or in worse cases hacked! But still it is always required to have strong passwords for the day will surely come when you will be using credit cards to do online transactions. Using very strong passwords is mandatory if you do online transactions at all. if you have any further suggestions for others on how to design stronger passwords please use the comments section.

Hackers | Who Are Hackers?

Who are hackers and how do they hack? Hackers are excellent computer programmers who use a very good and strong software like PERL or Python to steal (hack) important data from the internet or even a user's computer. What hackers are mainly interested is a fact that is unknown to many internet users.

A few hackers try to hack military databases and spend almost months together trying to crack the password code. Some other hackers are nasty people and try to steal porn content from other users. A few hackers hack into the bank accounts, wipe the money off the account and evacuate the place without leaving any traces behind. Yet other hackers hack articles from other webmasters who write too many posts everyday. Or worse they may hack into the blogger account of another blogger and change the password code thus getting a good website with high traffic for absolutely no effort.

The process of hacking is quite simple. Hackers send a piece of code called as Trojan (also called as horse) into the targeted computer.The trojan horse collects all the data while the system administrator connects to the internet. Thus when the user logs into his accounts the hackers hacks the data from the browser (either by collecting the information in the cookies or live with the help of the Trojan). That's it! A few days later the system administrator gets confused and thinks that there was some mistake done from him while entering the password. After repetitive trials the administrator finally gets to know that his account has been hacked. And the best way to retrieve it is to hack the computer of the hacker who has hacked his account!

The best way to stay safe from hackers is to delete the browser's browsing data as soon as the transactions are over. There is a small chip in the credit card which helps the hackers in cracking the password code. Destroy that chip and your account stays safe from hackers. Always use good and long passwords which are strong to hack. Do not store any personal information in the form of a password. A password which signifies lovers name, phone number, favorite celebrity number is dangerous. No strong and strange English dictionary words. There are automated softwares designed by hackers which use all the English words, quotes, etc to hack into the user accounts. Use the comments section to let others know about a few more hacker tricks and safety measures to avoid hackers from hacking important accounts.

Salman Khan Dabangg Review

Salman Khan starrer Dabangg is going to stir the air this time. Yes the movie is hot and filled with beautiful stunts. We will be seeing more of the Wanted Salman Khan in Dabangg this time. Though there are a few controversies still troubling the actor it seems that he will get over every hurdle this time and will bring fame to the much awaited film Dabangg. The movie Dabangg will also be showing Salman Khan delivering awesome dialogues which will steal the hearts of the Indian audience.

There is power in the title (Dabangg), the hero and also in his heroic dialogues. Salman fans were happy with wanted and hence now the same director has come up with marvelous stunts in the new film Dabangg. This time we will see Salman Khan with moustaches (which might hurt the girls a little bit). His looks are absolutely malefic and will make the girls woo him in the theatres of Dabangg.

Salman is featured as a corrupt police officer from Bihar in Dabangg. Salman Khan has also lost his six-pack abs and has left behind his favorite good luck bracelet feroza as it did not suit the looks of the character. If you thought that Salman Khan is the hero of Dabangg let me warn you: he is not. He is a corrupt police officer known by the name Chulbul Pandey (also called as Robinhood Pandey in the film because of his excellence in aiming his gun to hit the target just like the old legendary archer Robin Hood did).

Rumors also stated that it was Salman Khan’s brother Arbaaz Khan (who is also a producer of the film) who made Salman Khan to lose his six pack abs. Slaman Khan was actually expected to show a belly in this film which was a mission absolutely impossible and hence the actor ended up losing his six-pack muscles for playing the role of Robinhood Pandey in Dabangg.

Salman Khan's fans are really very excited about the release of Dabangg and are confidently stating that “Dabangg will overpower the success of Wanted”. Salman Khan had helped his co-actress Sonakshi Sinha in her fitness training in order to get her into good shape during the shooting of Dabangg. Will "Dabangg" be a super hit film? Leave your answer behind in the comments section.

Apple iPhone4 Arriving In India


The most controversial phone Apple iPone4 will now be arriving in India. And. This time it is Airtel which will be launching this latest product from Apple. The Apple iPhone4 has gone through a series of comments and controversies and has even made the Apple taste sour to the tongues of its owners.

The phone got sold like hot cakes in the market till a few customers claimed that the signal strength of the Apple iPhone4 died instantaneously when held in a particular manner with the left hand. This phenomenon was renowned as the Apple iPhone4's “death grip” problem and was overcome by the designers of Apple by covering the mobile with a simple casing.

Mr. Steve Jobs did not want to disappoint the customers who bought the Apple iPhone4 and hence declared that the company would freely give away free casings to the Apple iPhone4 customers and also led forth a series of various offers which would satisfy the customers. In fact he was so confident about the Apple iPhone4’s success that he declared a 100% money back guarantee to those who were unsatisfied with the Apple iPhone4 and were willing to somehow get rid of it.

The Apple iPhone4 looks very neat and is a high end phone which runs on the Google’s Android OS platform. Since the Apple iPhone4 caught fever, the DroidX mobile changed gears and started rolling off the shelves till the stocks were almost evacuated.

With special offers and flat 50% off discounts the DroidX mobile took every opportunity to finish the final lap first. Both the mobiles really have a tough competition depending on the plethora of varied features they provide to their owners.

In spite of all these happenings Apple still claims that the Apple iPhone4 is the best mobile it has ever manufactured till today. To make situations a bit more worse Apple claimed that the performance of every phone drops slightly when held in a particular manner near the antenna position. Other company mobiles have taken up the challenge to put down the claims laid forth by Apple. Do you think the DroidX had the advantage that the death grip issue of the Apple iPhone4 arrived at the same time? Do you think that other mobiles also have the same problem as the Apple iPhone4?  Do you think that Apple's claim saying that every mobile faces the same problem as the Apple iPhone4 to a certain amount? Please express your opinion on the Apple iPhone4 issue and the above questions in the comment section.

Kingston 120 Data Traveller 8 GB Pendrive Review


Before buying any pendrive please do remember that it is obsolete to buy a 16GB pendrive. There are many computers with outdated configurations which will not support these pen drives. So, if you plan to buy one, drop the idea now itself. Coming to the Kingston 120 data traveler 8GB flash pen drive: please do not take the performance specifications so seriously. Many technology magazines will give you too many technical details which do not bother the common user at all. The time taken to transfer files is useful only to compare the technology that rests under the cover of two different pen drives. The data transfer time may vary slightly in two pen drives of same storage capacity. But this doesn’t cause much difference.

The storage capacity of the Kingston is 7.45GB in practice. Though the ergonomics of the pendrive tells us very clearly that it is built to last long. The Kingston pendrives do not come with outdated weak caps as the Transcend pen drives do. The Kingston pen drives usually use a sliding push button which is used for popping out the mouth of the pendrive which is connected to the USB port. The storage space of the pendrive is usually low because the storage space specified is measured using analog systems. When the pen drive is thrust into the computer the computer reads the storage space in terms of bits and bytes which makes the computer to read a storage space which is less than that specifies by the manufacturer.

The ergonomics of the pen drive is pretty good and makes sure that the drive is capable of withstanding various shocks that it is being subjected to. The overall performance of the drive is pretty good. And I recommend it to anyone who wants to buy one. Do not bother about the file transfer speeds and other test which are run by the technical magazines. They are usually done because the magazines have to choose one among the many products as the best ones. They do not much bother the user experience as far as I have tested the drives. The Kingston 120 Data Traveller 8BG pen drive is definitely here to stay. Even if Transcend pen drive gives you a few more MB’s of space they are physically very poor and are found to be rendered useless if the computer it is being used with is not grounded properly. The problems are pretty less with the Kingston pendrives. Kingston also states that some space is used up by the pen drive to ensure safety and to run applications. Some part of the drive is probably used to make speed transfers faster as it probably acts like a cache. To take a look at the pendrive click here

ISRO satellites


ISRO the Indian Space Research Organization makes the Indians proud by showing its advancements and improvements in the space research field. Indians were the first ones to have proved that the surface of the moon is not overheated and dried due to the sun’s heat which was a misconception ruling many human brains!

With so many satellites launched India is still having a budget which is only 1/20th the budget used by the American Government for the satellite launching organizations. And yet, India has moved a step further by showing the involvement of the IIT students of Kanpur and Mumbai in the improvement in the design of the nano and pico satellites.

With all these advancements India is now witnessing a good weather forecast. With the help of satellites it has become possible for the infrastructure management department to view the advancement in the road constructions of India. India is also witnessing too many TV channels as a byproduct of these powerful satellites which are revolving around the earth all the time. And not to forget the GPS system which we are using on our mobiles to help us when we seem to have been misguided in our directions.

Indian satellites are strong enough to capture good quality photographs of the earth surface and help the Indians stay updated with useful predictable information. A fisherman can now know the places where water reservoirs are present. The banks are also relying heavily on the satellites to stay connected 24x7 with the latest changes in the accounts of their customers. ATM’s are also depending on the satellites to maintain their database and also register the transaction occurred with the respective bank.

In fact India is one of the most qualified Asian countries when it comes to satellite designing and launching. The news that IIT Kanpur’s project satellite Jugnu (a small nano satellite) has been approved and that the satellite will be launching in a month or two makes the Indian’s proud of its educational heritage than ever before. The students were also awarded an international award “Hans Von Muldau” from the International Astronautical Federation for their contribution in the project.

Apple iPhone4 Problem Solved


The Apple iPhone4 customers have finally heaved a sigh of relief after seeing the plethora of options laid forth by Steeve Jobs:

• The customers who have bought the Apple iPhone4 will be given a free casing which solves the signal reception problem of the iPhone4. Follow this link for more information on the death hold problem of the antenna of Apple iPhone4.
• Those customers who have already bought a casing will be refunded the amount they paid for it.
• If the customers aren’t still satisfied with the product, they have the option to get their money back and leave the phone! This tells us how much faith Apple has on its iPhone4.
• A software update has been released which will be available for download to all the iPhone4 users. This software fixes the bugs of the problematic signal reception indicator and many other calculation problems which the earlier algorithm was ineffective at.

Believe it or not, but, even after all this Apple states the iPhone4 to be its best product ever released. Jobs told the media that only a very small percent of the users had reported the problem of the signal reception death due to holding the iPhone4 in a particular manner with the left hand.

It somehow seems that the iPhone4 issue was unnecessarily hyped a lot by the media. The panicked iPhone4 users have now heaved a sigh or relief after seeing the list of options ruled out by the company. Apple has seriously considered its reputation in order to convince its customers.

Some webmasters called this a non-technical solution. But, if a big problem can be solved with the help of a simple solution, why bother about the technical solution? Apple surely will not be able to reach each and every iPhone4 handset to tweak its IC. Please remember that this offer is valid throughout the month of September. The iPhone4 will be entering India after September and the Indians are still in a fix to see if they will also be given the same provisions as the present customers are getting. With so much of fuss it really does not become evident as to whether it really was a great technical problem or just another media hype to make the Ezines more popular with much hot news.

Modern Students And Their Minds


In Modern times, the education trends have changed a lot. There was a time when getting a degree was more than enough to get a good job. There were times when students were not even asked for a photo proof in their hall tickets, but now the trends of education have changed and so have the students. Everything is based on competition. Parents demand good scores from their children. But, it is disheartening to say that the students, though, score well in their curricular subjects are far away from understanding them. With the introduction of the notes system students have stopped studying text books. The whole world has become “score” and “competition” oriented. All that the students are bothered about in these modern times is the marks and the grades.

Understanding a subject is important no doubt. But, the students have their own reasons for memorizing text without bothering to know the matter which is dealt with in the text book. I was shocked to see engineering students crossing the red mark by memorizing a subject like mathematics! The not only passed the subject but also scored a good 70+ in it! Though these students somehow manage to clear their degree with an A+ grade marks card, they often fail as successful technical engineers. After the havoc created by the recession times, students are now looking forth to get placed in a permanent government job. And as the trend says: getting a good Government job requires you to get a good marks card with overflowing marks which reach the limit of the skies.

Recent surveys state that most of the students who are brought up in villages prefer getting placed in a Government job. While the ones who are brought up in towns and villages prefer going for private jobs even if it poses the risk of being thrown out by the company during the harsh recession times. Surveys have also stated that students scoring very high marks have a temporary memory which stores things quickly for a short period of time and deletes the matter even more quickly once the exam is over. Average students were found to have a greater depth in the subjects and were also found to have a strong and permanent memory which made them remember things for a long period of time! But, how is this possible?

The answer is quite simple. Most of the average level students section is made up of candidates who read the text, understand the matter and write the answers in the examination papers in their own words. Whereas the ones who score higher, memorize the text books and aim at putting other students behind them in the examination. And hence, most of the students who score a higher percentage are many times unaware of the actual matter which they had memorized from the text books during the examinations. And thus, after this clarification, it is quite obvious to see the average student being placed in very good companies and giving a tough competition to everyone in his professional field.

That being said, the students who have their heads immersed inside the text books are afraid of examinations and hence they revise the same text again and again to make sure that they do not forget anything. Though such students do score high they do not have any innate knowledge of the external world whatsoever. Such students know the world through the books and hence are found lacking good jobs even if their marks cards show the interviewers a brighter curricular performance. Usually these students are found to go for higher studies after unsuccessfully searching for a good job. Reason being they find themselves completely useless as they know not a pinch about whatever is going on around them in this beautiful world which seems to be stranger than a stranger to them. Although, a Government job is always easily available to these students on the basis of their outstanding marks scored.

Quite surprisingly students who read newspapers and are well versed in English quite often stammer when they are asked to perform or give a presentation on a bigger platform facing a huge audience. On the other hand guys who actively participate in sports and other extra-curricular activities show a good performance on a big platform where they get the opportunity to address and present their skills to a wider audience.

Coming to the last category: the students who show a below average performance. Please do remember: “a student has failed many times in his college days or school days” does not mean that the student is weak in studies. This is a major misconception and has to be clarified. The students who score poor marks are of many types. Either they are not interested in the subjects they have chosen, or they might have wanted to join some other course but were forced by their family members to pursue their studies in the course that they are undertaking. In some cases a student does not study just because he is so sharp that the knowledge in the text books seems obsolete and dry to him. A student may be bright but will be having poor concentration due to the habitat he is living in or may be due to his poor nutrition value supported eating lifestyle. Some students are just ignorant and do not take studies seriously at all. One among many factors may make a student to perform poorly. Students who became good mathematicians in their future had failed in math many a times in their lives! This itself tells us that a student whose performance is poor is either too sharp or either too dull. Believe it or not, but, it is this category of students who actually set up industries and companies. One successful project is more than enough to stir the lifestyle of these students. So be careful while deciding a student on the basis of his marks cards. Often these students have a very high grasping power and are found to finish a very complicated subject within a single night and are also found to pass the subject. Such students do not go for higher studies. They will step in for very small jobs at the beginning and then steer their way clear into the bigger companies to get hefty payouts provided they dream of getting a job.

Presently these are the various mindsets of the modern students as observed by me.

Droid X sold out like hot cakes


The new mobile by the name Droid X from Motorola being sold out in the Verizon Wireless retail stores is now catching the crowd by storm due to the problems filed against the Apple iPhone4. Reports show that this new mobile which has entered the market is being sold out like hot cakes. It seems that Motorola and Verizon will take full advantage of the situation at hand. Reports are stating that Motorola and Verizon are advertizing their mobile hard enough to break the record set forth by the Apple iPhone4 whose sales are seeing a descending ramp due to the death grip phenomenon occuring in it which makes its signals die down once the mobile is held in a particular manner. For more details on Apple's iPhone4 click here

The Droid X features the following specifications:

1. The Verizon online stores gave the buyers a flat 100$ discount, which meant that the 200$ mobile could be bought at a crash price of 100$. Reports state that most of the shops are running out of stock or are having very less number of spare pieces left.
2. Droid X is built around a solid 1GHz processor which is ready to give you a snappy and fast paced interface.
3. Droid X runs on the latest Android 2.1 platform which is developed and rolled out by Google.
4. The Droid X features an awesome 8MP camera!
5. Unfortunately Droid X comes with the Anti-Hack and Brick warnings. Its meaning is given below:

Reports state that if you try to install Android 2.2 OS on your mobile phone, the phone will be rendered useless. Thus you need to be pretty careful and a bit more of a hacking geek if you wanna play with this newcomer. There is a chip placed in the mobile which runs only on Google's Android 2.1 OS. So be careful before trying to play games with the Droid X mobile which comes with a non-replaceable OS.

Epic the first Indian Browser


The Software Engineers of the silicon valley have made the Indians proud with the release of their first ever Indian browser. The Epic browser being designed in Bangalore by a company called as "Hidden Reflex" is built on the Mozilla platform. Epic has too many themes that can be applied to suit the character of every user. There are applications along the side strip which give many options to the users of Epic to choose from. Epic is built to do virus scans of the webpage on the go and is also said to protect the users from phishing attacks.

The interface of Epic is quite easy to handle and makes browsing a new experience to its users. The default theme though does not seem to be so cool for the eyes to accept so easily, can however be customized using the plethora of other choices available. The applications which are placed along the side bar of Epic when clicked will open up a widget like window for its users. One can open only one widget in one window. The browsing speed of Epic is acceptable and gives you a good and unique feel. Epic however is more concerned with the privacy of its users. A single click history delete and many other options make it tempting to give this one a try. The applications in Epic can be customized by the user to meet his/her need.

That being stated the browser is really made for the Indians and by the Indians. How would a browser supporting 12 Indian languages sound? And all this is topped up with what an Indian wants the most: information about the current happenings in a cricket match through a cricket commentary, TV, News and much more options which make Epic a unique, funky and fun to hang around browser for the Indians. Twitter and Facebook are also accessible from the side bar of Epic. I gave it a try and am pretty happy with its performance. We can at least be assured that there will not be many hackers trying to drill a hole into this newcomer as yet. Though the fact that it is built on the Mozilla platform thus give the thieves a small clue. Give Epic a try and you will feel some change in he browsing platform. The release of Epic calls up for a celebration time in India.

The Solution To Apple iPhone4 Antenna Troubles

Apple will be soon discussing a possible solution for the antenna trouble complaints lodged by many of its Apple iPhone4 users. The Apple iPhone4 made a very good sale and brought very good profit for Apple until this bug was reported. The issue states that whenever a user covers the Apple iPhone4 at a particular spot, the strength of the signal reduces drastically giving poor signal reception which is bothering the Apple iPhone4 users since the past few days. According to Apple this isn’t a major problem and exists with every other mobile phone. Though, the intensity of signal draining is felt to be very high in the case of Apple iPhine4. This report has been confirmed after doing a few performance tests and technical tests to analyze the situation.

Apple is taking the matter pretty seriously. It is being said that Apple will make its users buy a casing which will improve the performance of the Apple iPhone4. Apple also reports that the signal indicator is not being programmed properly and hence such issue might be arising. Though, it has been observed that if a casing is used, the signal reception strength does not drain even if the user holds his hand near the spot where the antenna receives its signals.

Apple is presently having a meeting in which this issue will also be pondered over, is what a few sources have, to say. Though, it has been found that this problem will persist with only a few people who touch the signal reception spot while holding the mobile talking to someone. Some people in fact state that they were still not being able to recognize the spot closing which the signal reception of the phone would become poor. Most of the other mobiles never show such a misbehavior even if they are held near the signal reception area. We just have to wait and see the solution that apple will possibly come up with for its Apple iPhone4 users.

The Power Of Positive Thinking


For a person who has an attitude of thinking positive, sky is the limit. A person with positive attitude can break all the shackles of this modern society and transcend to a level where he becomes so confident that he gets ready to take the bull by its horns. There are many reasons why a person who has such a strong attitude might be broken due to reasons innumerable. It is always found that: tougher the person, the greater will be the pain of failure faced by him. It is quite natural to fail. But, the attitude of positive thinking should not be given up. Yes, positive thinking is a great power. It rests with people who understand their responsibilities. The power of positive thinking is undoubtedly an unique gift and is gifted to very few people. The lifestyles of Lal Bahadur Shastri and Sir Abraham Lincoln make a common man shiver while looking at the positive attitudes of these great people. Mahatma Gandhi was another person who took the lashes of the British hunter on himself and never budged till the British officer succumbed and asked for forgiveness. Yes, all these were great people. They lived with low salaries and worked harder than what they ate. And a peep into the biographies of these great people tells us the number of times they failed in their lives. But, finally even success had to succumb its ego and knock the doors of these great people by looking at their tremendous positive attitudes which showed a robust and balanced mind which was stable enough to sustain the whips of failure.

Positive attitude is nothing but the quality of sustenance, sustenance of failure, triggered with the willingness to succeed. There are many examples which can teach us how to build up a mental attitude which will help us fight our way through the crowds. Whenever a person feels like doing anything important which will be of use to the nation and the people around him, he finds that the whole society stands against him. But a man has to remember that an aero plane flies only when it runs against the winds. A person with positive attitude never thinks about the consequences that may arise when he undertakes an important work. He just works and is never bothered about the result. In India there are a few people who call themselves as Karma Yogies. These people just do their work and do not bother themselves about the fruits that may result as a gift to their hard work. They leave the decision of fruits in the hands of God almighty and work hard all day long without keeping any expectations in their mind in return for their hard work.

It is quite surprising to see the harsh and determined positive attitudes of Bhagat Singh and his comrades in the Indian freedom struggle. The way they sustained the lashes of the British and went on a hunger strike for a time period which was never attempted ever before by any Indian. They say that an Indian martyr had cut his tongue with his own teeth so that the British should no longer ask him about any of the activities being undertaken by the Indian activists. This entire attitude comes from a brave heart. A brave heart, which rests beneath the chest of every positive thinker. They did all this just because they had a positive attitude towards their life. They had a feeling that the Indians will definitely get their freedom someday and they all fought hard to make that day come true as early as possible.

It is not surprising to see that the positive attitude does not come so easily to a person who has never failed before. A scholar never becomes a scholar unless he fails in solving a problem. Failure is required to bring success in one’s life. The biography of Sir Abraham Lincoln should be helpful to build a positive attitude within a person who has lost all hopes in his life. There are many failures around you. You just need to open your eyes and you will be amazed to see that every person fails many a times in his life. The topper of a class though well versed in technology fails to impress an interviewer for he does not pay attention to the other sources of knowledge that are surrounding him. In fact, a person who is very good in one field is worse in many others. If a person thinks that he has failed and can do nothing more in is life is usually wrong while thinking so. And he understands this point only after he gains success.

Doesn’t matter how many times you fail, you need to sustain the fall get up and again get ready for another war. Failing is not a matter to be felt ashamed over. It has to be faced. It is only when you look face to face into your failures that you get the power to face it. A tiny person can kill a huge devil with the help of a single small weapon: a sling shot. And we all know these stories which were told to us to build our positive attitudes. The supernatural force called God is praised by every person with a positive attitude so that He may give him courage enough to fight against the evil. There has to be some reason why the creator created us and sent us on this beautiful earth. Search for that reason and see positive things in every failure that comes your way. In fact failure gives you another opportunity to fight. And as history reveals: a wounded lion is twice as harmful and fierce than a healthy one. Have that positive attitude and you will be surprised how things work out your way.

Modern Hairstyles For The Cool Guy

There are many modern hairstyles to drive people absolutely crazy. But, usually short and medium hairstyles look more decent and are much more manageable as compared to the other hairstyles. Long hair is not a good option if you are working in India. The long hairstyles have entered the film industry but they haven’t obsessed the common man as yet.

People with such hairs steal the show wherever they go. You need a few unique products to keep the hair as they are. Some also color their hairs to match the occasion they are exposed to.

The Faux hawk hairstyle: This hairstyle is usually found among the football players. The best one sported by our favorite David Beckham. This is also like the punk style but is not pulled to the extreme. Hairs are just made to stand up straight in the middle and are combed down on both the sides. Looks good with some but is still not so widely adopted by the common man.

Bald hairstyle: Again the soccer players made the crowd feel that a bald head looks better and much modern. It was well known Salman Khan style once upon a time in India. And now with the release of Ghajini youngsters have stuck to the hairstyle of the psycho who had temporary memory loss. Quite surprisingly it looks much better with a few guys.

Ponytail: This style has been promoted much by the actors as well as the soccer stars. We saw David Beckham, Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan also adopting this hairstyle in quite a few films. The hairstyle looks much clean and sophisticated and needs minimum of your care to keep it intact.

Long free flowing hairstyle: This is the best hairstyle and is much adored by the girls. Usually looks good on guys with straight hairs which are combed stepwise down their head. If made too long, guys comb their hair and weave them like the Indian mothers. Looks good, but is meant for girls and hence it can be avoided by guys. Free flowing medium hairs are excellent for people with short hairs.

Curly hairs: Ever since the Spanish actor Antonio Banderas entered Hollywood curly hairstyles started seeing a new dawn. The actor gave quite good looks with his medium curly hairs which add to his beauty and make him look like an absolute cool and modern guy.

The hairstyle of Tom Cruise in MI2 is also worth giving a look as it had caught the whole world with a burning desire to have such a hairstyle. Many girls are crazy even today for guys with such an unique and neat looking hairstyle.

Modern Trends | Modern Times


The modern trends are mostly set by people who have reached the pinnacle of success in their lives. Undoubtedly film actor and actresses are also a part of this. But, modern trends are the trends set by the youth which make a person get reckoned as the modern technical geek who is always sought after by the society. Let us take a deeper look at what the modern trends have brought on stage for us.

What are the modern trends being followed by people all around this world? When the word modern comes to our mind the first thing which pops up along with it is the modern technology. Yes, technology is the first advancement made by this modern society, as also, technology is the main demand of this modern society. It is required that a youngster stays updated with the latest happenings in the field of technology in order to put behind the other competitive teens far behind him. Technology has a major role in shaping the courier of a youngster. Modern trends demand a youngster to be a computer geek. It is necessary that you know thoroughly about the various softwares that are used within a computer. Knowing MS Word, MS Excel and Power Point thoroughly are the bare requirements of the day. To keep up with the modern trends you have to know a few basic technologies that are used in the modern smart phones. A basic idea of the principle used behind the latest technology will help you in many interviews to grab the vacant post. At least an idea about what are the various technologies and what are the basic principles which are used in order to achieve the task are necessary to show an interviewer that you are the technical geek of the modern trends. A good modern mobile equipped with the latest cutting-edge technology and a modern trendy laptop also give a good touch to your personality.

Another most important thing which pops up into my mind when it comes to modern trends is the outfits. Your latest modern outfits should be decent if not fashionably modern. Your outfit should prove to others that you are a respectable person in the society and that you are well aware of the trends being followed by the modern geeks. A formal dress when utilized properly and topped with an added benefit of a cool modern hairstyle can get you a job even if you do not perform much well in the interview. It is attitude that the interviewer searches within you. There are many monkeys with good degree certificates. But a piece of paper does not make anyone capable of undertaking a responsible task. If you are still thinking that a degree certificate showing good marks builds your reputation you are definitely mistaken my dear friend. A degree is just to show that you have successfully completed a course. An engineer with 35% marks is also an engineer and so is a person with 90% score sheet resting in his file. There are many cases where average students have outranked the above average students in terms of intelligence and smart performance. You need to know a few things out of the text book in order to lead the race.

The next thing is your character. Behave like a gentleman. Speak a little but do not become insular. If you do not get involved in a meeting people will never know the real you. In order to prove your smartness you need to speak. In these modern times a technical geek who is well versed and is sharp in making remarkable points wins the race with much ease as compared to someone who tries to rush like a mad bull and take every other bull by his tough horns. So try to avoid becoming a bull. Respect others and others will respect you. Quite surprisingly this mantra works even in these modern times where people seem to have lost their conscience. The ‘give respect take respect’ strategy seems to work even today.

Another thing which will give you the perfect modern feel is the touch of humor. Even in business meetings people make things much interesting with their much of intelligent intellectual words of humor. Humor makes boring things much interesting for others to hear. People have had too many text books and are fed up of them by the time they join a company. If you give text book like lectures in your presentations people are sure to doze off. So avoid seriousness as much as possible. A few formal jokes which will be appreciated by the audience are good to mark your presence as a modern cool geek.

Modern trends demand guys to have short hairs and a clean shave. It is always better to stay trimmed as it makes you look cool and smart. Sophisticated hairstyles are adored and also make a guy look professional. No faux hawk hairstyle in office. Your boss may accept it, but it does not look professional. Many employers hate such hairstyles and also reject many candidates on this sole basis. A good outfit should be decent enough to be accepted by everybody. No showing off. This may satisfy your ego, but time has revealed that candidates who show off are often found in trouble due to their bosses. In short the modern trends demand you to be the Mr. Perfect. How you achieve this, is left up to you.

And finally the greatest and immediate demand of the modern trends is a guy who is completely aware of the latest events going on around the globe. It has been found that serious topics are often discussed by interviewers in their interviewing sessions and the interviewees are put into a dilemma as they do not understand what should be the proper solution to the controversy at hand. It is often found that whenever someone reads a controversy he/she thinks of a possible solution to it. So if such a controversy (which has been earlier studied by you) is brought into focus you can outsmart the other candidates by showing them your unique thinking skills which are appreciated by everyone other than your foes.

So keep up with modern trends and become a cool modern technical geek in no time.

How To Choose A Mobile Phone


It is better to ponder over this question before going to a mobile shop. How do you actually choose a mobile? The first thing you need to confirm is the reason why you need a mobile phone. With the increasing number of a variety of mobile users, the mobile companies will give you different mobile phones which suit the tastes of random characters. All you need to do is choose a mobile phone that well suits your needs. Some mobiles are built to give you a good music experience while some others give you a good internet speed. With so many types and varieties of mobiles and mobile companies it makes you get even more confused over how you can shoose a mobile phone that best suits your needs. With so many options available you need to first decide the reason for buying a mobile. The question isn’t ‘how to choose a mobile’; it is ‘why do you want a mobile’. If you need a mobile just for calling someone or messaging on the go you do not need a high-fi mobile phone whose applications will never be used by you. You will simply be wasting your money trying to buy a smart phone which does not help you much with your purpose of buying a phone.

Always keep the following things in mind before choosing to buy a mobile phone:
• If you want to use your mobile phone as a walkman in order to keep yourself connected with music 24x7, you need to choose the walkman series mobile phones from any brand. These mobiles are specially built to give you good music performance. Mind you, the advanced cutting edge technology adopted in the modern mobiles has now made 3D surround sound flowing from the mobile earphones into your ears. In case you are not satisfied with the output quality of the sound try it with a different earphone from a reputed earphone company before choosing to buy a mobile phone. Do test the sound quality before buying it. Some earphones will not work properly with the driver of your mobile phone. So it is best to ask your friend if he has a good quality earphone (like the ones provided by Bose and Creative) and test the mobile phone with it before choosing to buy it.
• The phones with a well laid out QWERTY keypad with EDGE and CDMA2000 support are purely business phones and are mostly used as PDA’s and for live mobile conferences. You need not choose one if you do not want a PDA with a high end 3G mobile connection.
• If you want 3G internet connectivity, choose a mobile phone which supports CDMA and EGPRS (also called as EDGE) technology. This boosts the performance of the mobile thus yielding you a greater internet browsing experience.
• Always ask the vendor to show all the mobiles that fall under a price range. This will give you various options to choose from. Many a time we choose a mobile and buy it, and when we see another funky looking set with great features lying within the same price tag in our friend’s hand, we awe ourselves for buying a stupid mobile phone which gives us no space to express ourselves.
• Choose a mobile phone which is a bit funky looking. Always make it a point to roam at least three to four mobile shops before choosing and buying a mobile phone. Take a look at the price tags of the same mobile at various places. This will ensure that you do not get cheated by any mobile vendor. A mobile can no doubt be bought at a price much cheaper than what you could possibly think of. Always choose to buy a mobile at a few hundred bucks less than the price set by the vendor. A bargain to achieve a discount will not hurt the vendor. The best option is to choose and buy a mobile form a good branded showroom.
• Always take a look into the technical details of a mobile on the internet before choosing to buy one. Do not forget to check for complaints that are logged against the mobile. Complaints if any should pop up into the starting ten pages in the search results of Google. You can try searching for “mobile name”+“bugs” in the search box. Use various synonyms and try to find out if the users using the particular mobile model are facing any problems with the functions of the mobile phone before choosing to buy it.
• Never forget to ask for the warranty and guarantee certificates. Some vendors avoid giving these. Do insist that you want one or else leave the shop right away.
• A China mobile will not have warranty or guarantee of any sort in a country other than China. Choose these cutting edge technology equipped mobiles only if you can maintain it properly.
Touch screen technology equipped mobiles are a boon as well as a bane so be careful before choosing to buy a touch-screen enabled mobile phone. If on one a capacitive touch screen responds faster to a finger touch, it also makes it difficult for you to scroll through a list of songs or any other menu on the other hand. Choose mobiles which have a separate scrolling button near the edge to help you scroll through the menus. Resistive touch screens demand you to apply more pressure to make it work and are not as sensitive as the capacitive touch screen mobile phones. But scrolling without a scroll button near the edges is much easier in them. Do remember that capacitive touch screens do not work with all styluses. The stylus in a capacitive touch screen mobile is a good conductor of electricity and hence cannot be replaced by a plastic stylus. On the other hand a resistive touch screen can work with any stylus. Capacitive touch screens will not allow you to place any available protection cover on its surface other than the costly and thin good conducting metallic protective layer. A resistive touch screen mobile will adjust with any protective cover. It is always a good idea to avoid using a stylus in a resistive touch screen to scroll through the menu. This will leave harsh scratches on the protective layer. Be careful before choosing a mobile with touch screen. Touch screen mobiles are made to make internet browsing an evergreen experience.
• Make sure that the navigation keys are convenient to use before buying your mobile. If you are a SMS addict choose mobile with larger number keys. QWERTY keyboard is good only if it comes sliding out as in Nokia N97. If it is adjusted below the screen of a bar shaped mobile using the keypad is generally a pain in the neck if you have short fingers.
• If you want a mobile phone with a good camera you should and must choose to buy a Sony Erricson mobile phone. Time has proved that these mobile phones deliver the best cameras which give good and crisp photographs of excellent quality. The same holds good if you want to buy a good walkman mobile phone.

That being said, choosing the right mobile is still in your hands. Preventing mobile hacking is another issue which has to be pondered over depending on which you can choose the mobile phone you want with a robust operating system. Do not let any opportunity make you repent for choosing a mobile which did not give you something that you wanted the most. If you have any suggestions for others to help them choose a better mobile the comments section is open for one and all.
