The Smart Basket - " iBasket " .

Hi,.... One of my friends told that...


" Without a wife or girlfriend around to keep me in line, my laundry pile tends to build to frightening proportions before it receives the attention it deserves. So perhaps I need a washing machine that can work without needing my input ".


So i planned to write a blog on "iBasket"... which will surely help him and those who have the same type of problem .



The Smart Basket :) - " iBasket " .


The Electrolux iBasket is a laundry hamper that will automatically clean your clothes once enough items have been tossed inside. This is determined by weight of the clothes . Once the deadline is reached the basket starts washing .One of the interesting feature of this iBasket is its WiFi Technology .....

The iBasket consists of three layers , the top level ,outer cover and the inner cover . The Top panel is made up of Recycled Aluminium and the outer cover is made up of Acrylic glass and the inner cover made up of Acrylic glass .

The iBasket has a WiFi Based techonological link that lets you to control the machine from your computer or Mobile , and sends you a instant message when the cleaning is completely over .



This interesting and famous iBasket was Designed by Guopeng Liang at China’s Tongji University as a part of the Electrolux 2008 Design Lab competition, the iBasket is a real innovation and could potentially make the process of washing clothes a less daunting experience and makes our clothes so clean ... :)

Fancy Bread Toaster .... :)

Hi,

Technology again took an interesting curve in delivering the news. We work for bread . How do you feel if you can have hot news with toasted delicious bread? Obviously that fill our stomach as well as our knowledge ..
Its not a Steven Speilberg's another movie with everything extraordinary but its just an another creation :)

How would you like a toaster that can actually “print” the latest news on your bread? Not many people like for this sort of luxury, but that hasn’t stopped Sung Bae Chang from designing the Scan Toaster.

Entered into an Electrolux design competition, the Scan Toaster connects to a PC by USB. Then, it can download news, weather reports, the time and more. There are modules inside the toaster that heat up, just like a regular toaster would. The only difference is that these modules can move 30 degrees. So, once you select a news story you want printed, the modules will realign and then burn the image on the bread.
This is just a design at the moment and there are no plans for the toaster to be manufactured for consumers. But this is really one of those items that makes you wonder what will they think of next ?

......... sounds funny yet it's a Good Project...

cheers...

These special system variables are available irrespective of path
You cannot create a folder with these names also:
CON, NUL, COM1, COM2, COM3, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3,COM1 to COM9 and LPT1 to LPT9....
CON means console, COM1 means serial port 1, LPT1 means parallel port 1.....

......:) Good Humour And It's Benefits + Some Jokes :).........

The one of the Main Thing which differ Human being from animals is ... "The Sense of Humor "...Also known as our Sixth Sense .

Smile ; it the second best thing one can do with one's lips. ...

A sense of humour is the ability to experience humour, although the extent to which an individual will find something humorous depends on a host of variables, including geographical location, culture, maturity, level of education, intelligence, and context. For example, young children may possibly favour slapstick, such as Punch and Judy puppet shows or cartoons (e.g. Tom and Jerry).



Humor occurs when :


1.An alternative (or surprising) shift in perception or answer is given that still shows relevance and can explain a situation.
2.Sudden relief occurs from a tense situation. "Humourific" as formerly applied in comedy referred to the interpretation of the sublime and the ridiculous, a relation also known as bathos. In this context, humour is often a subjective experience as it depends on a special mood or perspective from its audience to be effective.
3.Two ideas or things are juxtaposed that are very distant in meaning emotionally or conceptually, that is, having a significant incongruity.
4.We laugh at something that points out another's errors, lack of intelligence, or unfortunate circumstances; granting a sense of superiority.


Good Humor, as a characteristic ,means good temper - a cheerful kindly and genial disposition. a good humored person is one who is not easily provoked or irritated ,who takes things in a genial and friendly spirit , and so is easy to get on with ,and pleasant companion .

A Good Humored person is naturally popular. sour,irritable,peevish and irascible people are not loved .People do not readily make friends with such ,for they are always giving and taking offense . but all people like the company of good humored man , with his pleasant smile and jolly laugh and kindly and genial manners .

Good Humor is also a valuable defense to its possessor against the worries and battles of life . It prevents him from worrying about trifles ,and getting upset with every misfortune
The Typical character of a good humored man in fiction is Mark Tapley,in Dickens's
"Martin Chuzzlewit",who always prided himself on keeping a smiling face and meeting the worst misfortunes with a cheery laugh.He is,perhaps , An impossible character ;but it would do us no harm to try to follow his sunny example.

Good Humor, therefore ,makes for happiness. The good humored man makes others happy with his cheery presence,and is able to keep himself happy even under Cloudy Skies .

School Life -The Happiest Part OF ONE's Life .

School Life - The Most Happiest part in everyone's life . This post mainly deals with some interesting facts about school life ...
Whether one's school days are happy or the reverse , depends a good deal on the character of the school in which one's lot is cast ; for schools are of all kinds -- good ,bad, and different .
But most schools now-a-days are respectable ,and some are very good.
Most of us look back upon our school life as , on the whole , a Happy time . Of course the small boy who first goes to school (especially if it is boarding school ) does not at the beginning feel very happy . He is surrounded by unfamiliar faces and a life very difficult from what he was used to at home , and he feels lost and home sick , and badly wants his mother . but he soon settles down ; and when he gets used to the new conditions feels comfortable and happy enough .
Of- course there are drawbacks , and even dangers , in school life . There are always
black sheep in every flock ; and a boy sometime gets led away into bad habits by vicious companions and when the discipline is over strict and the masters unsympathetic ,a sensitive boy may suffer much . But on the whole the influences of school life are healthy and good..

For one thing , the strict discipline of a school has a healthy effect upon growing boys . At home a boy is too often coddled and allowed too much of his own way ;but at school he has to learn to obey . and there he learns the good old useful virtues of punctuality,regular method ,the best use of time ,diligence ,and prompt obedience.Boys may not like this ; but they are thankful for the lessons afterwards ,when they become men.then a boy cannot live in a community of boys with out , as we say ,getting the rough angles Knocked off.Boys in their social life out of class and in the hostels discipline each other . A school -boy soon gets such faults as conceit ,priggishness,cowardice,meanness and unsportsmanlike behavior ,knocked out of him by the ridicule ,criticism,and even rough treatment of his companions .

Then the most and Great gift given by our school age is "THE EVER LASTING FRIENDSHIP".
It is often at school that friendships for lifetime are made .Boys soon get to know each other and form fast friendships ,that in after life are a great joy and source of strength to them.The school games ,also,develop a lad's mainly qualities and not only make him physically strong , but also teach him Esprit-de-corps and the true spirit of sportsmanship .

So when school-days are over ,the boy who felt miserable when he first joined leaves his school with real regret . This is well expressed in a verse of the Harrow Song ,which is sung to new boys when they first join the famous old school "ON THE HILL ";


"The Time Will Come , As the days go by ,
When your eyes will fill at the thought of the hill ,
And he wild regret of the last Good bye "....


if god gives me a chance to go to past ,surely i will ask him to give my school days back ...


always enjoy Life with that pleasant and joyful thought of school days .....

Walt Disney to Co Produce Kamal’s Next Venture

Walt Disney to Co Produce Kamal’s Next Venture

IT's a Great Pride To all INDIANS and Especially For Tamil Cinema Industry.since Walt Disney Accepted To Co Produce Kamal's "MARMA YOGHI".....


Kamal’s dream project is Marma Yoghi. This big budget film couldn’t do with just one producer, so now there is a co-producer in Bharat Bala (of AR Rahman’s Vande Mataram fame). Thanks to Bharat, this film will also see Kamal Hassan and AR Rahman coming together for the first time.Walt Disney Productions recently tied up with Yash Raj Films and will be producing a film called Roadside Romeo for them shortly.

Fortunately, for Kamal, the production house wants to spread its wings across the country. The actor will be in the US to discuss production details for the film and it will be shot in Thailand. Kamal plans to start shooting for this film in February. Marma Yogi is to be a historical story, set in the seventh century. The film is also touted to become the most expensive film in India. A source says, “Kamal has budgeted this film at approximately 120 crores and as we all know, a film is never made within a quoted budget. It is bound to be the most expensive film ever made in our country.” With remaking being the trend of late, it is not surprising that Kamal’s dream project too is a remake.

The original Marma Yogi was released in 1951 and starred screen legends MGR and Anjali Devi. Interestingly this was the first A certified film in the Tamil film industry. The film is based on the novel , ‘Vendetta: The story of one forgotten’, written by Marie Corelli in the year 1886.Kamal’s Marma Yoghi will feature three heroines and rumours are that Kamal has zeroed in on two of them, Asin and Hema Malini.

Google's new Browser::




GOOGLE launched its own Internet Browser , which is named “GOOGLE CHROME“.Now lets see its advantages and disadvantages. It has already received wide applause through out. It's appearance is simple but very efficient. Auto complete and speedy start are it's special functions. Definitely this new idea is going to give stiff competition to Microsoft corporation.

2)In Google Chrome, you can get anywhere on the Web with one box. The address bar that sits at the top of the normal Google Chrome window simplifies your Internet experience by doubling as a search box. You can also use it to bookmark websites and stay aware about the security of a website.

3)”GOOGLE CHROME” comes with BOOKMARK facilities .

DIS-ADVANTAGES OF “GOOGLE CHROME” :-(

2)little bit slow, and lots of blank spaces in the home page.Need some more designing and easily accessible links in the home page.
