Top 10 Reasons to Smile

01. Smiling Makes Us Attractive
We are drawn to people who smile. There is an attraction factor. We want to know a smiling person and figure out what is so good. Frowns, scowls and grimaces all push people away -- but a smile draws them in. 
02. Smiling Changes Our Mood
Next time you are feeling down, try putting on a smile.. There's a good chance  you mood will change for the better. Smiling can trick the body into helping you  change your mood.
03. Smiling Is Contagious

04. Smiling Relieves Stress
Stress can really show up in our faces. Smiling helps to prevent us from looking tired, worn down, and overwhelmed. When you are stressed, take time to put on a smile. The stress should be reduced and you'll be better able to take action.
05. Smiling Boosts Your Immune System
Smiling helps the immune system to work better. When you smile, immune function improves possibly because you are more relaxed. Prevent the flu and colds by smiling.
06. Smiling Lowers Your Blood Pressure
When you smile, there is a measurable reduction in your blood pressure. Give it a try if you have a blood pressure monitor at home. Sit for a few minutes, take a reading. Then smile for a minute and take another reading while still smiling. Do you notice a difference?
07. Smiling Releases Endorphins, Natural Pain Killers and Serotonin
Studies have shown that smiling releases endorphins, natural pain killers, and serotonin. Together these three make us feel good. Smiling is a natural drug.
08. Smiling Lifts the Face and Makes You Look Younger
The muscles we use to smile lift the face, making a person appear younger. Don't go for a face lift, just try smiling your way through the day -- you'll look younger and feel better. 
09. Smiling Makes You Seem Successful
Smiling people appear more confident, are more likely to be promoted, and more likely to be approached. Put on a smile at meetings and appointments and people will react to you differently.
10. Smiling Helps You Stay Positive
Try this test: Smile. Now try to think of something negative without losing the smile. It's hard. When we smile our body is sending the rest of us a message that "Life is Good!" Stay away from depression, stress and worry by smiling.

50 Common Interview Questions and Answers

1. Tell me about yourself:

 

The most often asked question in interviews. You need to have a short statement prepared in your mind. Be careful that it does not sound rehearsed. Limit it to work-related items unless instructed otherwise. Talk about things you have done and jobs you have held that relate to the position you are interviewing for. Start with the item farthest back and work up to the present.

 

2. Why did you leave your last job?

 

Stay positive regardless of the circumstances. Never refer to a major problem with management and never speak ill of supervisors, co- workers or the organization. If you do, you will be the one looking bad. Keep smiling and talk about leaving for a positive reason such as an opportunity, a chance to do something special or other forward- looking reasons.

 

3. What experience do you have in this field?

 

Speak about specifics that relate to the position you are applying for. If you do not have specific experience, get as close as you can.

 

4. Do you consider yourself successful?

 

You should always answer yes and briefly explain why. A good explanation is that you have set goals, and you have met some and are on track to achieve the others.

 

5. What do co-workers say about you?

 

Be prepared with a quote or two from co-workers. Either a specific statement or a paraphrase will work. Jill Clark, a co-worker at Smith Company, always said I was the hardest workers she had ever known. It is as powerful as Jill having said it at the interview herself.

 

6. What do you know about this organization?

 

This question is one reason to do some research on the organization before the interview. Find out where they have been and where they are going. What are the current issues and who are the major players?

 

7. What have you done to improve your knowledge in the last year?

 

Try to include improvement activities that relate to the job. A wide variety of activities can be mentioned as positive self-improvement. Have some good ones handy to mention.

 

8. Are you applying for other jobs?

 

Be honest but do not spend a lot of time in this area. Keep the focus on this job and what you can do for this organization. Anything else is a distraction.

 

9. Why do you want to work for this organization?

 

This may take some thought and certainly, should be based on the research you have done on the organization. Sincerity is extremely important here and will easily be sensed. Relate it to your long-term career goals.

 

10. Do you know anyone who works for us?

 

Be aware of the policy on relatives working for the organization. This can affect your answer even though they asked about friends not relatives. Be careful to mention a friend only if they are well thought of.

 

11. What kind of salary do you need?A loaded question. A nasty little game that you will probably lose if you answer first. So, do not answer it. Instead, say something like, That's a tough question. Can you tell me the range for this position? In most cases, the interviewer, taken off guard, will tell you. If not, say that it can depend on the details of the job. Then give a wide range.

 

12. Are you a team player?
You are, of course, a team player. Be sure to have examples ready. Specifics that show you often perform for the good of the team rather than for yourself are good evidence of your team attitude. Do not brag, just say it in a matter-of-fact tone. This is a key point.

 

13. How long would you expect to work for us if hired?

 

Specifics here are not good. Something like this should work: I'd like it to be a long time. Or As long as we both feel I'm doing a good job.

 

14. Have you ever had to fire anyone? How did you feel about that?

 

This is serious. Do not make light of it or in any way seem like you like to fire people. At the same time, you will do it when it is the right thing to do. When it comes to the organization versus the individual who has created a harmful situation, you will protect the organization. Remember firing is not the same as layoff or reduction in force.

 

15. What is your philosophy towards work?

 

The interviewer is not looking for a long or flowery dissertation here. Do you have strong feelings that the job gets done? Yes. That's the type of answer that works best here. Short and positive, showing a benefit to the organization.

 

16. If you had enough money to retire right now, would you?

 

Answer yes if you would. But since you need to work, this is the type of work you prefer. Do not say yes if you do not mean it.

 

17. Have you ever been asked to leave a position?

 

If you have not, say no. If you have, be honest, brief and avoid saying negative things about the people or organization involved.

 

18. Explain how you would be an asset to this organization.

 

You should be anxious for this question. It gives you a chance to highlight your best points as they relate to the position being discussed. Give a little advance thought to this relationship.

 

19. Why should we hire you?

 

Point out how your assets meet what the organization needs. Do not mention any other candidates to make a comparison.

 

20. Tell me about a suggestion you have made.

 

Have a good one ready. Be sure and use a suggestion that was accepted and was then considered successful. One related to the type of work applied for is a real plus.

 

21. What irritates you about co-workers?

 

This is a trap question. Think real hard but fail to come up with anything that irritates you. A short statement that you seem to get along with folks is great.

 

22. What is your greatest strength?

 

Numerous answers are good, just stay positive. A few good examples: Your ability to prioritize, Your problem-solving skills, Your ability to work under pressure, Your ability to focus on projects, Your professional expertise, Your leadership skills, Your positive attitude

 

23. Tell me about your dream job.

 

Stay away from a specific job. You cannot win. If you say the job you are contending for is it, you strain credibility. If you say another job is it, you plant the suspicion that you will be dissatisfied with this position if hired. The best is to stay genetic and say something like: A job where I love the work, like the people, can contribute and can't wait to get to work.

 

24. Why do you think you would do well at this job?

 

Give several reasons and include skills, experience and interest.

 

25. What are you looking for in a job?

 

See answer # 23

 

26. What kind of person would you refuse to work with?

 

Do not be trivial. It would take disloyalty to the organization, violence or lawbreaking to get you to object. Minor objections will label you as a whiner.

 

27. What is more important to you: the money or the work?

 

Money is always important, but the work is the most important. There is no better answer.

 

28. What would your previous supervisor say your strongest point is?

 

There are numerous good possibilities:
Loyalty, Energy, Positive attitude, Leadership, Team player, Expertise, Initiative, Patience, Hard work, Creativity, Problem solver

 

29. Tell me about a problem you had with a supervisor.

 

Biggest trap of all. This is a test to see if you will speak ill of your boss. If you fall for it and tell about a problem with a former boss, you may well below the interview right there. Stay positive and develop a poor memory about any trouble with a supervisor.

 

30. What has disappointed you about a job?

 

Don't get trivial or negative. Safe areas are few but can include:
Not enough of a challenge. You were laid off in a reduction Company did not win a contract, which would have given you more responsibility.

 

31. Tell me about your ability to work under pressure.

 

You may say that you thrive under certain types of pressure. Give an example that relates to the type of position applied for.

 

32. Do your skills match this job or another job more closely?

 

Probably this one. Do not give fuel to the suspicion that you may want another job more than this one.

 

33. What motivates you to do your best on the job?

 

This is a personal trait that only you can say, but good examples are: Challenge, Achievement, Recognition

 

34. Are you willing to work overtime? Nights? Weekends?

 

This is up to you. Be totally honest.

 

35. How would you know you were successful on this job?

 

Several ways are good measures:
You set high standards for yourself and meet them. Your outcomes are a success.Your boss tell you that you are successful

 

36. Would you be willing to relocate if required?

 

You should be clear on this with your family prior to the interview if you think there is a chance it may come up. Do not say yes just to get the job if the real answer is no. This can create a lot of problems later on in your career. Be honest at this point and save yourself uture grief.

 

37. Are you willing to put the interests of the organization ahead of your own?

 

This is a straight loyalty and dedication question. Do not worry about the deep ethical and philosophical implications. Just say yes.

 

38. Describe your management style.

 

Try to avoid labels. Some of the more common labels, like progressive, salesman or consensus, can have several meanings or descriptions depending on which management expert you listen to. The situational style is safe, because it says you will manage according to the situation, instead of one size fits all.

 

39. What have you learned from mistakes on the job?

 

Here you have to come up with something or you strain credibility. Make it small, well intentioned mistake with a positive lesson learned. An example would be working too far ahead of colleagues on a project and thus throwing coordination off.

 

40. Do you have any blind spots?

 

Trick question. If you know about blind spots, they are no longer blind spots. Do not reveal any personal areas of concern here. Let them do their own discovery on your bad points. Do not hand it to them.

 

41. If you were hiring a person for this job, what would you look for?

 

Be careful to mention traits that are needed and that you have.

 

42. Do you think you are overqualified for this position?

 

Regardless of your qualifications, state that you are very well qualified for the position.

 

43. How do you propose to compensate for your lack of experience?

 

First, if you have experience that the interviewer does not know about, bring that up: Then, point out (if true) that you are a hard working quick learner.

 

44. What qualities do you look for in a boss?

 

Be generic and positive. Safe qualities are knowledgeable, a sense of humor, fair, loyal to subordinates and holder of high standards. All bosses think they have these traits.

 

45. Tell me about a time when you helped resolve a dispute between others.

 

Pick a specific incident. Concentrate on your problem solving technique and not the dispute you settled.

 

46. What position do you prefer on a team working on a project?

 

Be honest. If you are comfortable in different roles, point that out.

 

47. Describe your work ethic.

 

Emphasize benefits to the organization. Things like, determination to get the job done and work hard but enjoy your work are good.

 

48. What has been your biggest professional disappointment?

 

Be sure that you refer to something that was beyond your control. Show acceptance and no negative feelings.

 

49. Tell me about the most fun you have had on the job.

 

Talk about having fun by accomplishing something for the organization.

 

50. Do you have any questions for me?

 

Always have some questions prepared. Questions prepared where you will be an asset to the organization are good. How soon will I be able to be productive? and What type of projects will I be able to assist on? are examples.

Steven Hawking Explains How Time Travel Is Possible

Steven Hawking Explains How Time Travel Is Possible

Those who have ever entertained the idea that they could build a time machine, a self described ‘physicist,cosmologist, and something of a dreamer’ by the name of Steven Hawking has a few ideas that you might be interested in. He recently offered instructions on how to build a time machine in an article he wrote for the “Daily Mail.” “All you need is a wormhole, the Large Hadron Collider or a rocket that goes really, really fast,” Hawkings stated in his report.

The root of his idea comes from Einstein’s theory of relativity, stating that time moves faster in some places than it does in other places, and that he believes it is perfectly reasonable to think that one could move along those places where time moves faster into the future. He does not believe that travel into the past would be possible, though. This is because of paradoxes, for example: “What if a scientist travels back in time and shoots his earlier self? He is now dead. So who fired the shot? It’s a paradox.” “I used to avoid talking about it [time travel] for fear of being labelled a crank,” Hawking admits. “But these days I’m not so cautious.”

Hawking feels that traveling forward in time would be possible of you could build a large enough machine which would carry enough fuel to propel it for six years at full power. That would bring it almost to the speed of light. “At this speed, a single day on board is a whole year of Earth time. Our ship would be truly flying into the future. The slowing of time has another benefit. It means we could, in theory, travel extraordinary distances within one lifetime. A trip to the edge of the galaxy would take just 80 years.

Ubuntu

Ubuntu is a computer operating system originally based on the Debian GNU/Linux distribution and distributed as free and open source software with additional proprietary software available.

It is named after the Southern African ethical principle Ubuntu. Ubuntu provides an up-to-date, stable operating system for the average user, with a strong focus on usability and ease of installation. Web statistics suggest that Ubuntu's share of Linux desktop usage is about 50%, and upward trending usage as a web server.

Ubuntu is composed of many software packages, of which the vast majority are distributed under a free software license (also known as open source). The main license used is the GNU General Public License which, along with the GNU Lesser General Public License explicitly declares that users are free to run, copy, distribute, study, change, develop and improve the software. Ubuntu is sponsored by the UK-based company Canonical Ltd., owned by South African entrepreneur Mark Shuttleworth. By keeping Ubuntu free and open source, Canonical is able to utilize the talents of community developers in Ubuntu's constituent components. Instead of selling Ubuntu for profit, Canonical creates revenue by selling technical support and from creating several services tied to Ubuntu.

Canonical endorses and provides support for three additional Ubuntu-derived operating systems: Kubuntu, Edubuntu, also known as Ubuntu Education Edition, and Ubuntu Server Edition. There are several other derivative operating systems including local language and hardware-specific versions.

Canonical releases new versions of Ubuntu every six months and supports Ubuntu for eighteen months by providing security fixes, patches to critical bugs and minor updates to programs. LTS (Long Term Support) versions, which are released every two years, are supported for three years on the desktop and five years for servers. The latest version of Ubuntu, 10.04 (Lucid Lynx), is such an LTS version, and was released on April 29, 2010.

Features

    Ubuntu focuses on usability, security and stability. The Ubiquity installer allows Ubuntu to be installed to the hard disk from within the Live CD environment, without the need for restarting the computer prior to installation. Ubuntu also emphasizes accessibility and internationalization to reach as many people as possible. Beginning with 5.04, UTF-8 became the default character encoding, which allows for support of a variety of non-Roman scripts. As a security feature, the sudo tool is used to assign temporary privileges for performing administrative tasks, allowing the root account to remain locked, and preventing inexperienced users from inadvertently making catastrophic system changes or opening security holes. PolicyKit is also being widely implemented into the desktop to further harden the system through the principle of least privilege.

    Ubuntu comes installed with a wide range of software that includes OpenOffice.org, Firefox, Empathy (Pidgin in versions before 9.10), Transmission, GIMP (in versions prior to 10.04), and several lightweight games (such as Sudoku and chess). Additional software that is not installed by default can be downloaded and installed using the Ubuntu Software Center or the package manager Synaptic, which come pre-installed. Ubuntu allows networking ports to be closed using its firewall, with customized port selection available. End-users can install Gufw (GUI for Uncomplicated Firewall) and keep it enabled. GNOME (the current default desktop) offers support for more than 46 languages. Ubuntu can also run many programs designed for Microsoft Windows (such as Microsoft Office), through Wine or using a Virtual Machine (such as VMware Workstation or VirtualBox).

Ubuntu is available for download free of charge

നിലാവില്‍ വിടരുന്ന പൂക്കളുടെ സുഗന്ധവും വെള്ളിമേഘങ്ങളുടെ പ്രകാശവും രാപ്പാടികളുടെ സംഗീതവും എനിക്കു കൂട്ട്. ഓരോ സുഹൃത്തിന്റെ വിടവാങ്ങലും ഒരു വേദനയായ് കണ്‍പീലികളെ നനയ്കുംബോഴും, കാറ്റിന്റെ ചിറകടിയൊച്ചയില്‍..അവരുടെ സ്വരങ്ങള്‍ക്കു കാതോര്‍ക്കുന്ന എന്റെ കാത്തിരിപ്പ്. സുഹൃത്ബന്ധത്തിന്റെ നേര്‍ത്ത അവഗണന പോലും ഒരു വലിയ വേദനയായ് മിഴിനീര്‍കണങ്ങളെ പൊഴിച്ചിടുംബോഴും.. സുഹൃത്തുക്കളേ, ഓര്‍ത്തുകൊള്ളൂ ഈ പഴയ തണലിനെ.. ഇല കൊഴിച്ചും, പുഷ്പിച്ചും ഈ തണുപ്പ് ഇവിടെയുണ്ടാകും

പ്രണയം

കുളിര്‍ മഴയായി..

നീറുന്ന മനസ്സിലേക്ക്, പുകയുന്ന ചിന്തകളിലേക്ക്
നിന്റെ പാല്‍ പുഞ്ചിരി ഒഴുകുന്ന മുഖം കടന്നു വരുമ്പോള്‍...
കുളിര്‍ മഴയായി നിന്റെ മൊഴി മുത്തുകള്‍ പതിക്കുമ്പോള്‍...
ഏതു തീ കാറ്റും തണുത്തുറഞ്ഞു പോകുന്നു...
മറച്ചു വെക്കാനാവാത്ത വിധം നിന്റെ സ്നേഹതിന്റെ
തൂവെള്ള തൂവലുകളെന്നെ പുതച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു....
ലോകം മുഴുവന്‍ കേള്‍ക്കേ വിളിച്ചു പറയാന്‍ എന്റെ മനം
വെമ്പല്‍ കൊള്ളുന്നു...

ഏതോ ശാഖകളില്‍നിന്നൊഴുകി ചേര്‍ന്ന
നമ്മുടെ അനുരാഗവഞ്ചികള്‍ കാലാന്തരങ്ങള്‍
പിന്നിട്ടൊഴുകുമ്പോള്‍ സഖീ...ഇനിയൊരു
ശാഖപിരിയുന്ന ജീവിതദശാസന്ധിയില്‍
നാം അന്യരായി തീരുവതിലുള്ള ആത്മനൊമ്പരം
പേറുമ്പോള്‍ കരയരുത്....നാളെ ഒത്തുചേരുന്ന
അഴിമുഖങ്ങളില്‍ പ്രത്യാശയുടെ താമരപ്പൂവുമായി
ഞാന്‍ കാത്തിരിയ്ക്കാം ....അലയടിയ്ക്കുന്ന
ഓളങ്ങള്‍ക്കപ്പുറത്ത് കണ്ണെറിയുമ്പോള്‍ നിന്റെ
സാമീപ്യമന്യമായാലും തളരാതെ ഋതുക്കളെണ്ണി
പ്രതീക്ഷയുടെ തുരുത്തില്‍ വഞ്ചിയടുപ്പിച്ചു
ജരാനരകള്‍ പുണരുവോളം കാത്തിരിയ്ക്കാം .....

ഒരിയ്ക്കല്‍ വാടിയ ഓര്‍മ്മകളുമായി പടിഞ്ഞാറന്‍കാറ്റിന്റെ
ഗതി നിന്നെ നീയറിയാതെ തുരുത്തിലെത്തിയ്ക്കും ...
അവിടെ ഓരോ മണല്‍ത്തരിയും പുല്‍നാമ്പുകളും
നിന്നോട് പറയും ...ഒരുവന്‍ ദിനരാത്രങ്ങള്‍
അറിയാതെ കടലില്‍ കണ്ണുംനട്ട് ആരെയോ
ധ്യാനിച്ച്‌ നിന്നിരുന്നെന്ന് .....
