where's my square root 3 ?
i fear that i will always be
a lonely number like root 3
a 3 is all that's good and right
why must my 3 keep out of sight
beneath a vicious square root sign
i wish instead i were a 9
for 9 could thwart this evil trick
with just some quick arithmetic
i know i'll never see the sun
as 1.7321
such is my reality
a sad irrationality
when hark! what is this i see
another square root of a 3
has quietly come waltzing by
together now we multiply
to form a number we prefer
rejoicing as an integer
we break free from our mortal bonds
and with a wave of magic wands
our square root signs become unglued
and love for me has been renewed.
where's my square root 3??

Success Does Not Happen In Isolation
There was a farmer who grew superior quality and award-winning corn.
Each year he entered his corn in the state fair where it won honour and prizes.
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learnt something interesting about how he grew it. The reporter discovered that the farmer shared his seed corn with his neighbours'.
"How can you afford to share your best seed corn with your neighbours when they are entering corn in competition with yours each year?" the reporter asked.
"Why sir, "said the farmer, "didn't you know? The wind picks up pollen from the ripening corn and swirls it from field to field. If my neighbours grow inferior, sub-standard and poor quality corn, cross-pollination will steadily degrade the quality of my corn.
If I am to grow good corn, I must help my neighbours grow good corn."
The farmer gave a superb insight into the connectedness of life. His corn cannot improve unless his neighbours’ corn also improves. So it is in the other dimensions!
Those who choose to be at harmony must help their neighbours and colleagues to be at peace.
Those who choose to live well must help others to live well. The value of a life is measured by the lives it touches..
SUCCESS DOES NOT HAPPEN IN ISOLATION. IT IS VERY OFTEN A PARTICIPATIVE AND COLLECTIVE PROCESS.
So please share the good practices, ideas, new learning with your family, friends, team members, neighbours..
"Success breeds Success"…
When your hut's on fire -- Story with moral
The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited island. He prayed feverishly for God to rescue him. Every day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed forthcoming. Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect him from the elements, and to store his few possessions. One day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, with smoke rolling up to the sky. He felt the worst had happened, and everything was lost. He was stunned with disbelief, grief, and anger. He cried out, 'God! How could you do this to me?' Early the next day, he was awakened by the sound of a ship approaching the island! It had come to rescue him! 'How did you know I was here?' asked the weary man of his rescuers. 'We saw your smoke signal,' they replied.
It's easy to get discouraged when things are going bad, but we shouldn't lose heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in the midst of our pains and sufferings. Remember that the next time your little hut seems to be burning to the ground. It just may be a smoke signal that summons the Grace of God.

STEP 1 - convert your music file to swf format

Number One Speech
A speech from Vince Lombardi (Vince Lombardi was a legendary Football coach, whose motivational talks have become Leadership must reads. His "Number One" speech, which is attached below, is considered a cult classic)
"Winning is not a sometime thing; it's an all the time thing. You don't win once in a while; you don't do things right once in a while; you do them right all the time. Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.
"There is no room for second place. There is only one place in my game, and that's first place. I have finished second twice in my time at Green Bay, and I don't ever want to finish second again. There is a second place bowl game, but it is a game for losers played by losers. It is and always has been an American zeal to be first in anything we do, and to win, and to win, and to win.
"Every time a football player goes to play his trade he's got to play from the ground up - from the soles of his feet right up to his head. Every inch of him has to play. Some guys play with their heads. That's O.K. You've got to be smart to be number one in any business. But more importantly, you've got to play with your heart, with every fiber of your body. If you're lucky enough to find a guy with a lot of head and a lot of heart, he's never going to come off the field second.
"Running a football team is no different than running any other kind of organization - an army, a political party or a business. The principles are the same. The object is to win - to beat the other guy. Maybe that sounds hard or cruel. I don't think it is.
"It is a reality of life that men are competitive and the most competitive games draw the most competitive men. That's why they are there - to compete. To know the rules and objectives when they get in the game. The object is to win fairly, squarely, by the rules - but to win.
"And in truth, I've never known a man worth his salt who in the long run, deep down in his heart, didn't appreciate the grind, the discipline. There is something in good men that really yearns for discipline and the harsh reality of head to head combat.
"I don't say these things because I believe in the 'brute' nature of man or that men must be brutalized to be combative. I believe in God, and I believe in human decency. But I firmly believe that any man's finest hour - his greatest fulfillment to all he holds dear - is that moment when he has to work his heart out in a good cause and he's exhausted on the field of battle - victorious."
--Vince Lombardi
Really new in Labs this time: SMS Text Messaging for chat
How often do you try to chat with somebody and they don't respond because they just walked away from their computer? Or maybe you're in the middle of chatting with them just as they need to leave. But you still need to tell them something -- something really important like you've moved where you're meeting...or ice cream! We need ice cream! This is why we built a way to chat with your friends even when they're away from their computers. Now you can keep the conversations going with a new Labs feature that lets you send SMS text messages right from Gmail. It combines the best parts of IM and texting: you chat from the comfort of your computer, and your friends can peck out replies on their little keyboards.
A few weeks back, we ran into a few snags when we first started rolling this out, but starting today you can turn on text messaging for chat. Just click on Settings, and go to the Labs tab. Scroll down until you see "Text Messaging (SMS) in Chat" and select Enable and Save Changes.
We're just trying it out for cell phones in the United States right now, but you can send texts to your friends with US phone numbers from anywhere in the world. You can start by just typing a phone number into the search box in the chat window on the left, then select "Send SMS." You can also select the contact you want to SMS first and then add their phone number.
Once you give us a name for that phone number, you'll be able to start chatting.
We'll save your friends' numbers in your Contacts, so next time you can just type their name in the chat box and select Send SMS.
On the receiving end, when you get a text message from Gmail on your phone, it will come from a number in the 406 area code. (The l33t folks in the crowd will note that this spells G0O.) You can reply to this text on your phone just like you'd reply to any other text. The reply gets routed back to our Gmail servers and shows up in your friend's Gmail chat window. Each of your friends' messages will come from a different 406 number so you can reply to any message and it will get back to the right person. Messages from the same person will always come from the same number, so you can even bookmark it in your phone.
If you get a message from somebody you don't want to chat with from your phone, just reply with the word BLOCK. If you don't want to get texts from anybody using Gmail, reply with the word STOP and we'll leave you alone. Keep in mind that all these text messages count as part of your regular mobile messaging plan and might incur fees. So unless you know your friends have unlimited text message plans, please be sensitive to their phone bills.

Who needs prayers?
Who needs prayers?
A lady approaches a priest and tells him, "Father, I have a problem. I have these two talking female parrots, but they only know how to say one thing. They keep saying "Hi, we're hot. Do you want a date?""That's terrible!" the priest exclaimed. "But I do have a solution to your problem. Bring your two parrots over to my house and I will put them with my two male talking parrots to whom I have taught to pray and read the bible.
My parrots will then teach your parrots to stop saying that terrible phrase, and your female parrots will learn to pray and worship."
So the next day, the lady brings her female parrots to the priest's house. The priest's two male parrots are holding rosary beads and praying in their cage. The lady puts her female talking parrots in with the male alking Parrots, and the female parrots say, "Hi, we're hot. Do you want a date?"
One male parrot looks over at the other male parrot and screams, "Put your Bible away Idiot, our prayers have been answered !!!"
Secrets behind happy married life !!
Once X asked Y, "What is the secret behind your happy married
life?"
Y said, "You should share responsibilities with due love and respect
to each other. Then absolutely there will be no problems."
X asked, "Can you explain?"
Y said, "In my house, I take decisions on bigger issues where as my
wife decides on smaller issues. We do not interfere in each other's
decisions."
Still not convinced, X asked Y "Give me some examples"
Y said," Smaller issues like which car we should buy, how much amount
to save, when to visit home town, which Sofa, air conditioner,
refrigerator to buy, monthly expenses, whether to keep a maid or not etc
are decided by my wife. I just agree to it"
X asked, "Then what is your role?"
Y said," My decisions are only for very big issues. Like whether
America should attack Iran, whether Britain should lift sanction over
Zimbabwe, whether to widen African economy, whether Sachin Tendulkar
should retire etc etc. Do you know one thing, my wife NEVER objects to
any of these".
Confession of an IJAW kid
Little Diepriye came into the kitchen where his mother was making > dinner.
His birthday was coming up and he thought this was a good time
to tell his mother what he wanted.
"Mom, I want a bike for my birthday." Little Priye was a bit of a troublemaker.
He had gotten into trouble at school and at home.
Priye's mother asked him if he thought he deserved to get a bike for his birthday.
Little Priye, of course, thought he did.
Priye's mother wanted Priye to reflect on his behavior over the last year.
"Go to your room, Priye, and think about how you have behaved this year.
Then write a letter to God and tell him why you deserve a bike for your birthday.
"Little Priye stomped up the steps to his room and sat down to write God a letter.
Letter 1
Dear God,
I have been a very good boy this year and I would like a bike for my birthday.
I want a red one.
Your friend,
Priye
Priye knew that this wasn't true. He had not been a very good boy this year,
so he tore up the letter and started over.
Letter 2
Dear God,
This is your friend Priye. I have been a good boy this year and
I would like a red bike for my birthday.
Thank you.
Your friend Priye
Priye knew that this wasn't true either. So, he tore up the letter and started again.
Letter 3
Dear God,
I have been an "OK "boy this year. I still would really like a bike for my birthday.
Priye
Priye knew he could not send this letter to God either. So, Priye wrote a fourth letter.
Letter 4
God,
I know I haven't been a good boy this year. I am very sorry.
I will be a good boy if you just send me a bike for my birthday. Please!
Thank you,
Priye
Priye knew, even if it was true, this letter was not going to get him a bike.
Now, Priye was very upset. He went downstairs and told his mom that he
wanted to go to church. Priye's mother thought her plan had worked, as
Priye looked very sad.
"Just be home in time for dinner," Priye's mother told him.
Priye walked down the street to the church on the corner.
Little Priye went into the church and up to the altar.
He looked around to see if anyone was there.
Priye bent down and picked up a statue of the Mary.
He slipped the statue under his shirt and ran out of the church, down
the street, into the house, and up to his room. He shut the door to
his room and sat down with a piece of paper and a pen. Priye began to
write his letter to God.
Letter 5
God,
I'VE KIDNAPPED YOUR MAMA. IF YOU WANT TO SEE HER AGAIN,
SEND THE BIKE!!!!!!!!!!
The hit man.
Diepriye

How To Dramatically Improve Your Web Site Design With CSS
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) allows you to create fast
loading pages, increase your search engine rankings, and
modify your whole site with one style sheet. So why don’t
more people use them? This is because they got so used to
html design and are afraid or too lazy to upgrade their
skills. Some will also use ready made templates that
contain flashy graphics, bloated code and sometimes
even contains hidden code embedded in the page.
In this series of articles I will show you how to create a
simple web site using CSS, so you will have no excuse to
begin incorporating them into your future designs.
What are Cascading Style Sheets?
Cascading Style Sheets is the name of a simple language
that allows you to add any style (font, colors, graphics,
links, layouts) to your web pages.
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
Benefits of Cascading Style Sheets
1. Separate content from presentation – you can separate
your HTML markup, text, graphics and multimedia from
presentation.
2. Consistent site wide look and feel consistency – you can
apply one style for 100s of web pages all at once. So if
you had to change the color of all pages on your site, you
only have to edit one style sheet. This saves you a huge
amount of time, especially if you had to edit each page
separately.
3. Web site maintenance - apart from being able to make
site wide changes easily through one CSS file, the clean
code it generates makes it easier to update. Properly
marked up web pages permit them to be maintained by more
than one person. It will also work in more browsers. Web
site redesigns will take much less time.
4. Improve search engine rankings – search engines
generally spider the code at the top of your web page first.
For most sites that means the navigation bar will be spidered
first (resides at top of page code). CSS enables you to
position the code for your content at the top making your
page search engine friendly. Properly marked up HTML pages
can easily found and properly categorized by search engines
5. Fast loading – CSS reduces the amount of tags used
therefore producing clean code. Tableless design can reduce
your load time by 25% to 50%.
6. Reduce bandwidth – compacting the amount of code used
will reduce the amount of bandwidth needed to host your web
pages. Therefore you won’t have to pay higher fees when
adding more web documents to your site.
7. Accessibility - increasing accessibility with CSS means
being able to serve web content to a larger audience,
increasing web site usability, even for non-disabled
people. Content can easily be formatted for projection as
well as screen display. Tableless layouts display well on
hand-helds.
8. Improve the printing of web pages – most printers will
only allow you to print a portion of the web page. With CSS
your whole document can be printed.
When you use CSS it becomes quick and easy to apply new
styles that can not only effect all styles on your web page
but even your whole site.
