With the induction of Nerpa, rechristened INS Chakra, into the Indian Navy on Wednesday, India is back in the elite club of nations having nuclear-powered submarines. Here are top 10 must-know facts about INS Chakra: 1) INS Chakra is a Russia-made, nuclear-propelled, hunter-killer submarine. Unlike conventional submarines that India operates which need to surface to charge their batteries often - sometimes as frequently as 24 hours - INS Chakra can stay under as long as it wants. Its ability to stay underwater is restrained only by human endurance to stay underwater. Also, another problem that the submarine could face is acidity. This is because of a lack of exercise inside due to prolonged deployments.
2) The Akula Class submarine will carry conventional weapons. The vessel is armed with four 533mm torpedo tubes and four 650mm torpedo tubes. It will be used to hunt and kill enemy ships.3) The INS Chakra displaces about 10,000 tons. It can do over 30 knots - more than twice the speed of conventional submarines. It can go upto a depth of 600 metres.
4) INS Chakra is one of the quietest nuclear submarines around, with noise levels next to zero.
5) It has about 80 crew members on board. The entire crew of INS Chakra has been trained in Russia for over a year. Facilities for the crew on board INS Chakra include a large recreation area, a gymnasium and a sauna as well. 6) INS Chakra has been taken on lease from Russia for 10 years and would provide the Navy the opportunity to train personnel and operate such nuclear-powered vessels. In 2004, India had signed a deal with Russia worth over $900 million for leasing the submarine. INS Chakra was expected to be inducted into Indian Navy a couple of years ago, but after an on-board accident in 2008, in which several Russian sailors died, the delivery schedule was changed.
7) INS Chakra formally joined the Indian Navy on Wednesday. It was commissioned by Defence Minister AK Antony at the Ship Building Complex in Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh. "INS Chakra will ensure security and sovereignty of the country," the minister has said. When asked if INS Chakra's induction will lead to arms race in the region, Defence Minister AK Antony told reporters, "India does not believe in arms race. We are not a confrontationist nation. We are a peaceloving nation....but, at the same time, the armed forces will be strengthened to meet any challenge."
8) The induction of the nuclear-powered submarine clearly indicates India's intentions in the Indian Ocean Region and South East Asia which has recently seen increasing assertive Chinese presence in the last few months. It will also a send a strong reassuring message to south east Asian nations like Indonesia, Vietnam and Malaysia who want India to play a more active role in the region to counter the assertiveness of China in the area.
9) The induction of the INS Chakra is likely to be followed by the induction of the indigenous INS Arihant, which will be capable of launching nuclear weapons and therefore complete the nuclear triad. INS Arihant, it is understood, is now undergoing sea trails at Vizag.
10) The only other nations possessing nuclear-powered submarines are - US, Russia, UK, France and China. India is back in this elite club after over a decade. In 1988, the Indian Navy had leased a Charlie Class nuclear-powered submarine for three years till 1991. However, the expertise gathered then was lost as most officers who had trained to operate nuclear submarines have retired.
I really hope all of you know who Justin Bieber is, if not your not worth reading this post, to get a bit deeper this kid was born just 2 years before me in London and like any other jobless teenager he had an interest in music, he didn’t go to any classes like most people do and was mostly a self taught musician which was actually something which made him different and creative.
After mastering himself with this wasteful art his mother decided to record his singing and post it on Youtube for his family and friends to see, so basically they had no idea about the power of social media.
While he and his mother kept doing so they found an increase in viewership, I bet they always had people other than his family and friends watching, so they decided in the beginning of 2008 to make their videos look more professional and by now they already had a loyal audience. They got over 10 million views with just pure word-of-mouth promotion which can be called ‘The snowball effect”.
One of the many of watched his videos were Scooter Braun and Usher Raymond, both of who are famous celebrity managers, they immediately took charge of him and turned his hobby into a professional full time business, and by the end of 2008 he was also signed for Raymond Braun Media Group which released his debut “One Time”.
All of this was more than enough to launch an artist’s career, but getting to this level is not easy for anyone, but little Bieber got this overnight, I bet he himself hasn’t realized the reason behind it other than his talent, as their are currently many kids out there who sing better than him. This is not a celebrity blog, so more than Bieber’s success story we’ll be concentrating on how social media played a major role in it.
The beginning : Power of Youtube
In 2008, two years after Google took-over Youtube, it was at its highest state, I always believe that 2007 – 08 were the best times to start a Youtube business as at that time their traffic was on a constant rise and the competition was extremely low than compared to today, so quiet often almost every upload received tons of views and if it was good, no one could stop the video from going viral.
I believe in this because many of the successful Youtube channels such as RayWilliamJohnson, Smosh and JakeValeFilms rose to popularity during these two years. Youtube videos faced the ‘snowball effect’ much faster and easier back then, so I bet Justin Bieber’s word-of-mouth campaign started out with bloggers and webmasters embedding his videos onto their sites.
Soon his videos got branded well enough and started to attain loyal subscribers, which was the backbone of his long term success and Youtube often shows unpredictable results once you touch this level.
I believe Justin looked forward to monetize his asset on Youtube by signing up to their partner program, which I highly appreciate as unlike other artists of that time who considered running advertisements as a bleak to their brand image, Bieber was successfully leveraging good income allowing him to reinvest and improve his videos and at the same time meet with his expenses.
Youtube is a great step towards brand promotion and one could easily leverage his influence and audience there to other networks and purposes, I believe Justin Bieber built his initial Twitter following with the help of the same, and many big channels on Youtube have contact and advertise links through which they receive proposals for various business deals.
The next step : Get social, create a buzz
I strongly believe that popularity cannot be based upon the number of people who know something or someone, but its based on the number of times they speak and discuss about that something or someone. By now millions of net surfers knew who Justin Bieber was, but they hardly spoke or discussed about him.
This was solved by getting him to be more social, the first way would be to constantly interact with fans on Youtube, Facebook and Twitter, I’m sure he would have outsourced this real soon. This helped boost discussion about him and because he outsourced it I’m sure the same was done in a massive scale, which added on to the previous ‘snowball effect’.
Many celebrity management and social media firms help build fame triggering fake discussions and massive social media upscale which involves creating fake controversies in ones name only to promote his / her brand, this method is tough and can be learnt only via experience and is popularly called ‘The naked fanatics’.
Again because Justin Bieber monetized at an early stage he was able to invest on these methods which are sure to cost thousands of dollars.
A big leap : Partnerships and Joint ventures
Every economic activity depends on a few others in order to be successful and at times one small partnership is all it takes, that is why I mentioned to always remain open for business deals in all your social media profiles. This may lead to a possible takeover, advertiser, sale or many a times a partnership / joint venture.
Justin Bieber soon came into the limelight of a few entrepreneurs in the music industry, many of them were smalltime, but soon enough he had a big deal from Scooter Braun which was basically a game-changer for him.
He got a huge contract which turned his small time internet show to a huge mainstream business. Many times even I myself receive many offers for joint ventures and business opportunities on this blog, most of them have helped me to a certain level, but you must watch out for scams a few times.
Rise to mainstream fame
As soon as he signed the contract with Raymond Braun Media Group he immediately launched his album which was efficiently promoted by RBMG, moreover his online bases were improved and well developed at the hands of professionals hired by RBMG, they promoted Justin Bieber and his talent in mainstream media with the help of publicists and made sure he gets all the mainstream fame.
The Music company did take a share of his earnings to cover up their expenses and to earn a considerable amount for their services but all of Justin Bieber’s launch depended on them.
His highly influential social media bases helped him leverage mainstream publications which brought him more fame and influence over the community. Like any other professional singer Justin Bieber started having his own concerts organized by his manager which again added to his ever growing fame.
These concerts were organized by his managers, and they generated millions of dollars from that and when Justin was singing for someone else he would charge upto $300,000 for it. Other than this his managers, RBMG got him a lot of sponsorships and endorsement deals which again brought him good revenues.
Being controversial
I’ve written about being controversial in many of my case studies and in all of them I’ve recommended my readers to be controversial in order to get your name out there. Justin Bieber may not have got into controversies for the sake of fame, but even then his name spread across the world due to his small controversies.
I believe that one must not be afraid of doing things differently, even if he fails at it I’m sure their will be some sort of positive outcome from it, that is what bring controversial is all about.
In today’s social media one can gain fame by going against the odds, lying and being daring enough, and Justin Bieber being 14 became a pop sensation which itself was something daring and against the odds, I feel that Bieber got maximum benefits from the fact that he was just a teenager.
On to our readers
This post was meant to be a case study on how an artist can get fame with the help of social media, but this can be for anyone else in any profession, Justin Bieber is actually one fine example of social media success and I hope all of you have realized that after reading this post.
No matter what he is today, his career began on the internet and I’m sure many more singers will use this medium to get world wide fame. All this while I considered singing a non-economic and wasteful activity, but I must say I was very much wrong although I would never dare venture out to such a business.
" From the house of The Little Ganesha Reporting " Please don't think it as a military message.Today we are seeing many military officials doing distinguished service to their mother land.Of course they are protecting their respective countries upto their level.
Now we will see about one of the Military official who is going to retire soon.
He is none other than GENERAL OF THE ARMY V.K.SINGH

The Chief at a function in St. Paul's School, Darjeeling on November 2010
Satyamev Jayate is the first show ever in the history of Indian Television to be aired simultaneously on a private channel network STAR and a national broadcaster Doordarshan.
The show is also dubbed in several languages including three Indian southern languages viz., Malayalam, Tamil and Telugu, along with Bengali and Marathi. Apart from Star Plus, the show will also have simulcast on STAR World (with English Subtitles), STAR Utsav, STAR Pravah, STAR Jalsha, Asianet and STAR Vijay within the STAR Network and other channels including DD National and Eenadu TV. Besides India the show also aired in over 100 countries around the world. On the broadcast of the show, Khan commented, "This show is being launched on a large scale. I had to make complete use of this medium. This is a baby step in that direction."
The show was also dubbed into Kannada, but was however not broadcast in the language, due to a unconstitutional, self-imposed and self-enforced ban by the Kannada Film Industry, which does not allow a dubbed version of any serial or movie to telecast in the state. The Kannada Film Industry, however, does approve Kannada remakes of the same. After the first episode went on air, Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray requested the Karnataka government to allow the show to be aired. On the issue, Thackeray commented that "This show must not be tied up in parochial chains or barred from the public. This is our view." Khan also requested Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce to allow the show to be aired in Karnataka.However, the first episode in Kannada was later released into show's official site.
The show telecasts on Sundays at 11 am IST ( 5:30 UTC). While the producers were high on showcasing it in the prime time at 9 pm, Khan wanted to telecast it on Sunday mornings since the slot is commonly considered as "family TV viewing" in Indian Television, after popular TV shows Mahabharata and Ramayana were aired on Sunday mornings and were highly successful. He was reported saying, "I wanted to telecast my show on Sunday morning. I want each family to watch the show and connect with it. We have watched Ramayana and Mahabarata and it used to come on Sunday morning. The shows created a different atmosphere." He further added that, "I don't understand TRPs and GRPs. I have no idea how to calculate it! I don't care about it. It is important to reach out to the Indian audiences. If viewers want to see, they will see or else it is up to them."
The concept of the show was not revealed in the Indian media until the show officially went on air on 6 May 2012. However, various sources reported the show to be based on "the common man" rather than being fictional. Also, based on its content, it was mostly referred as a talk show discussing social issues like child labour, health problems and other issues affecting the country. Aamir Khan, who is known for keeping secrecy for his movies, was quoted saying, "I don`t want to talk much about how the show will be, and about its format. I want everyone to see it directly on TV." However, commenting on the theme of the show, he said, "The show is about meeting the common man of India, connecting with India and its people." He also added, "Through this show we understand the problem of the people, we are not here to make a change. I am no one to change anything. I don`t think I am in the position to change anything else. I feel understanding a problem and feeling it or holding one`s hand or hugging is also important. I may not have the solution, but at least I can hear and understand."

Bear Grylls
Born
Edward Michael Grylls
7 June 1974 (age 37)
United Kingdom
Residence
A barge moored by Battersea Bridge on the River Thames, England
An island on Llŷn Peninsula, Abersoch, North Wales
Grylls grew up in Donaghadee, Northern Ireland until the age of 4 when his family moved to Bembridge on the Isle of Wight. He is the son of the late Conservative party politician Sir Michael Grylls and Lady Sarah Grylls. Lady Grylls was the daughter of Patricia Ford, briefly an Ulster Unionist Party MP, and cricketer and businessman Neville Ford. Grylls has one sibling, an elder sister, Lara Fawcett, a cardio-tennis coach, who gave him the nickname 'Bear' when he was a week old.
Grylls was educated at Eaton House, Ludgrove School, Eton College, where he helped start its first mountaineering club, and Birkbeck, University of London, where he graduated with a degree, obtained part-time, in Hispanic studies in 2002. From an early age, he learned to climb and sail from his father, who was a member of the prestigious Royal Yacht Squadron. As a teenager, he learned to skydive and earned a second dan black belt in Shotokan karate. He practices yoga and ninjutsu. At age eight he became a Cub Scout.He speaks English, Spanish, and French.Grylls is a Christian, describing his faith as the "backbone" in his life.
Although Grylls was christened 'Edward' he has legally changed his forename to 'Bear'.Grylls married Shara Grylls (née Cannings Knight) in 2000.They have three sons: Jesse, Marmaduke, and Huckleberry (born 15 January 2009 via natural childbirth on his houseboat).
Military service
After leaving school, Grylls considered joining the Indian Army and hiked in the Himalayan mountains of Sikkim. Grylls joined the British Army and served in the part-time United Kingdom Special Forces Reserve, with 21 Regiment Special Air Service, 21 SAS(R) for 3 years until 1996.
In 1996, he suffered a freefall parachuting accident in Zambia. His canopy ripped at 4,900 metres (16,000 ft), partially opening, causing him to fall and land on his parachute pack on his back, which partially crushed three vertebrae. Grylls later said: "I should have cut the main parachute and gone to the reserve but thought there was time to resolve the problem". According to his surgeon, Grylls came "within a whisker" of being paralysed for life and at first it was questionable whether he would ever walk again. Grylls spent the next 12 months in and out of military rehabilitation at Headley Courtbefore being discharged and directing his efforts into trying to get well enough to fulfil his childhood dream of climbing Mount Everest.
In 2004, Grylls was awarded the honorary rank of Lieutenant Commander in the Royal Naval Reserve for services to charity and human endeavour.
Everest
On 16 May 1998, Grylls achieved his childhood dream (an ambition since his father gave him a picture of Everest when he was eight) and entered the Guinness Book of Records, as the youngest Briton, at 23, to summit Mount Everest, just eighteen months after injuring his back. (James Allen, an Australian-British climber who ascended Everest in 1995 with an Australian team, but who has dual citizenship, reached the summit at age 22. The feat has since been surpassed by Jake Meyer and, at age 19, by Rob Gauntlett.)
Other expeditions
Circumnavigation of the UK
In 2000, Grylls, led the first team to circumnavigate the UK on a personal watercraft or jet ski, taking about 30 days, to raise money for the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI). He also rowed naked for 22 miles in a homemade bathtub along the Thames to raise funds for a friend who lost his legs in a climbing accident.
Crossing the North Atlantic
Three years later, he led a team of five, including his childhood friend, SAS colleague, and Mount Everest climbing partner Mick Crosthwaite, on the first unassisted crossing of the north Atlantic Arctic Ocean, in an open rigid inflatable boat. Suffering weeks of frozen spray and icebergs, battling force 8 gale winds, hypothermia, and storms in an eleven-metre-long boat through some of the most treacherous stretches of water in the world including the Labrador Sea, the Denmark Strait, and the stretch made famous by The Perfect Storm, Grylls and his team were just barely able to finish the journey from Halifax, Nova Scotia to John o' Groats, Scotland.
Paramotoring over Angel Falls
In 2005, Grylls led the first team ever to attempt to paramotor over the remote jungle plateau of the Angel Falls in Venezuela, the world's highest waterfall. The team was attempting to reach the highest, most remote tepuis.
Dinner party at altitude
In 2005, alongside the balloonist and mountaineer David Hempleman-Adams and Lieutenant Commander Alan Veal, leader of the Royal Navy Freefall Parachute Display Team, Grylls created a world record for the highest open-air formal dinner party, which they did under a hot-air balloon at 7,600 metres (25,000 ft), dressed in full mess dress and oxygen masks. To train for the event, he made over 200 parachute jumps. This was in aid of The Duke of Edinburgh's Award and The Prince's Trust.
Paramotoring over the Himalayas
In 2007, Grylls claimed to have broken a new world record by flying a Parajet paramotor over the Himalayas, higher than Mount Everest. Grylls took off from 4,400 metres (14,500 ft), 8 miles south of the mountain. Grylls reported looking down on the summit during his ascent and coping with temperatures of −60 °C(−76 °F). He endured dangerously low oxygen levels and eventually reached 9,000 metres (29,500 ft), almost 3,000 metres (10,000 ft) higher than the previous record of 6,102 metres (20,019 ft). The feat was filmed for Discovery Channel worldwide as well as Channel 4 in the UK.
While Grylls initially planned to cross over Everest itself, the permit was only to fly to the south of Everest, and he did not traverse Everest out of risk of violating Chinese airspace.
Journey Antarctica 2008
In 2008, Bear lead a team of four to climb one of the most remote unclimbed peaks in the world in Antarctica. This was raising funds for Global Angels kids charity and awareness for the potential of alternative energies. During this mission the team also aimed to explore the coast of Antarctica by inflatable boat and jetski, part powered by bioethanol, and then to travel across some of the vast ice desert by wind-powered kite-ski and electric powered paramotor. However, the expedition was cut short after Grylls suffered a broken shoulder while kite skiing across a stretch of ice.Travelling at speeds up to 50 km/h (30 mph), a ski caught on the ice, launching him in the air and breaking his shoulder when he came down. He had to be medically evacuated.
Longest indoor freefall
Grylls, along with the double amputee Al Hodgson and the Scotsman Freddy MacDonald, set a Guinness world record in 2008 for the longest continuous indoor freefall.The previous record was 1 hr 36 mins by a US team. Grylls, Hodgson, and MacDonald, using a vertical wind tunnel in Milton Keynes, broke the record by a few seconds. The attempt was in support of the charity Global Angels.
Northwest Passage expedition
In August 2010 Grylls lead a team of five to take an ice-breaking rigid-inflatable boat (RIB) through 2,500 miles (4,000 km) of the ice strewn Northwest Passage. The expedition intended to raise awareness of the effects of global warming and to raise money for children's charity Global Angels.
Media
Grylls entered television work with an appearance in an advertisement for Sure deodorant, featuring his ascent of Mount Everest. Bear was also used by the UK Ministry of Defence to head the Army's anti-drugs TV campaign, and featured in the first ever major advertising campaign for the world-renowned department store Harrods. Grylls has been a guest on television programs, including Friday Night with Jonathan Ross, The Oprah Winfrey Show, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Attack of the Show, The Late Show with David Letterman, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and Harry Hill's TV Burp. Grylls recorded two advertisements for Post's Trail Mix Crunch Cereal, which aired in the US from January 2009. He also appeared as a distinguished instructor in Dos Equis' Most Interesting Academy in a webisode named "Survival in the Modern Era". He appeared in a five-part web series that demonstrates urban survival techniques and features Grylls going from bush to bash. He also has marketed the Alpha Course, a course on the basics of the Christian faith. Warner Bros. had asked Grylls to appear in its remake of the film Clash of the Titans
Grylls is a best-selling author. Grylls' first book, titled Facing Up, went into the UK top 10 best-seller list, and was launched in the USA entitled The Kid Who Climbed Everest. About his expedition and achievements climbing to the summit of Mount Everest. Grylls' second book Facing the Frozen Ocean was shortlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award 2004. His third book was written to accompany the series Born Survivor: Bear Grylls. (Released in America in April 2008 to the Man vs. Wild Discovery television show) It features survival skills learned from some of the world's most hostile places. This book reached the Sunday Times Top 10 best-seller list. He also wrote an extreme guide to outdoor pursuits, titled Bear Grylls Outdoor Adventures. In 2011 Bear released his autobiography Mud, Sweat and Tears. and it is still currently the best-selling book in Australia and the United Kingdom.[citation needed]
He has a series of children's adventure survival books titled: Mission Survival: Gold of the Gods, Mission Survival: Way of the Wolf, Mission Survival: Sands of the Scorpion and Mission Survival: Tracks of the Tiger.
Escape to the Legion
Grylls filmed a four-part TV show in 2005, called Escape to the Legion, which followed Grylls and eleven other "recruits" as they took part in a shortened re-creation of the French Foreign Legion's basic desert training in the Sahara. The show was broadcast in the UK on Channel 4, and in the USA on the Military Channel. In 2008, it was repeated in the UK on the History Channel.
Born Survivor / Man vs. Wild
Main article: Man vs. Wild
Bear Grylls Survival Knife
Grylls hosts a series titled Born Survivor: Bear Grylls for the British Channel 4 and broadcast as Man vs. Wild in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the U.S.A., and as Ultimate Survival on the Discovery Channel in Europe, Asia, and Africa. The series features Grylls dropped into inhospitable places, showing viewers how to survive. Man vs. Wild debuted in 2006 and went on to become the number one cable show in all of America and now reaches a global audience of over 1.2 billion viewers. The second season premièred in the US on 15 June 2007, the third in November 2007, and the fourth in May 2008.
The show has featured stunts including Grylls climbing cliffs, parachuting from helicopters, balloons, and planes, paragliding, ice climbing, running through a forest fire, wading rapids, eating snakes, wrapping his urine-soaked t-shirt around his head to help stave off the desert heat, drinking urine saved in a rattlesnake skin, drinking fecal liquid from elephant dung, eating deer droppings, wrestling alligators, field dressing a camel carcass and drinking water from it, eating various "creepy crawlies" [insects], utilising the corpse of a sheep as a sleeping bag and flotation device, free climbing waterfalls and using a bird guano/water enema for hydration. Grylls also regales the viewer with tales of adventurers stranded or killed in the wilderness.
In some early episodes, Man vs. Wild / Born Survivor was criticised by some sources for misleading viewers about some of the situations in which Grylls finds himself. Discovery and Channel 4 television subsequently pledged production and editing transparency and clarification related to the criticism.
In March 2012, Discovery Channel terminated its productions with Grylls due to contract disputes.
Worst Case Scenario
Grylls' latest project is titled Worst Case Scenario and airs on Discovery in the USA. It is based on the popular books of the same name.
Medical aspirants – NEET is all set to be rolled out from 2013. This means that now there will be common entrance test for admission to all UG programmes and that will be called NEET or National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test. This exam will be conducted by CBSE. (Source: Times of India)
As of now, there are some 17 entrance tests held to fill more than 30,000 seats in around 271 medical colleges. Now with NEET, there will be a single entrance examination for all these colleges offering MBBS courses. Basically this will cover all the medical colleges coming under the ambit of Medical Council of India (MCI). 138 of these colleges are run by governments while 133 come under private management.
The ministry has also set a coordination committee to address any issue related to admission process, reservations, regional language as medium for conduct of NEET etc. Another important change is that the qualifying criterion has been changed from percentage of absolute marks to percentile to ensure that no seat remains unfilled. This was done to address the concerns that some seats might go unfilled with the introduction of common entrance. The MCI has also revised the syllabus for the entrance exam.
What do yo think about the new entrance test? Will be reduce the stress among students?
Just a few minutes back my mom came to me and asked whether I would sleep or not.But I replied her that there is lot work for me on the net you go and take a nap.She agreed and went away.As I started blogging I experienced some kind of abnormal thing going on around in my room.When I came out of my room I got a flashing light into my eyes.It is nothing but the scorching sun.Today in Andhra Pradesh the temperatures are hiking to the sky.At present the temperature is about 40 degree centigrade.Many people were dying due to the heat stroke.Even my father faced its attack.but he recovered soon as we were all there to help him.But what about the poor people ? Who will take care of them.Coming to the point,today the situation is in great danger.Trees are being cut indiscriminately.Female babies were being killed ruthlessly.There should be a need to stop such violence.
The main reason to write this post is that today the world is facing a severe threat called global warming.It is a huge monster which is eating up the earth and heating its inner core.The harmful gases which resides in our atmosphere are also helping this monster to eat our earth.Generally those gases are released into the atmosphere by us, the HUMANS. So we are helping this monster to eat away the earth.
We should not do such injustice to our mother earth.We should protect our earth from the monster.
The readers who were reading this thinks that it is also a some type of message.But this is not a message this is an order by the god.Everyone knew this order but we will forget about that order.It is natural for every human to forget.But this order should not be forget by us.There is a small video clip about the problems of global warming
I think we should protect our earth.The following points are some of the preventive measures of global warming :-
Go for an e bill instead of an paper bill.
Wash your hands ( by not using the soap or other) near plants or trees so that they receive water.
Create awareness programs among the people because most of them are unaware of global warming.
Use social network sites for promoting awareness.
Create valuable messages and quotes to bring change in the hearts of the people.
Create blogs for promoting the awareness programs.
Reduce the use of fuel.Use bicycles instead of power vehicles for medium distances.
Maintain ecological balance by planting trees. A CHILD --- A TREE . Work on this concept.
Do not dig the soil too much.Because digging the soil to maximum extent leads to the imbalance of underground water levels.
10. The main important thing please follow the above measures
So please my dear friends and readers Help our MOTHER EARTH AND SAVE OUR NEXT GENERATION'S FUTURE.

Steve Jobs passed away peacefully, surrounded by his loved ones, on October 5, 2011. Although no official cause of death has been reported, Jobs had suffered from pancreatic cancer in the past and underwent a liver transplant in 2009. He stepped down from his role as Apple’s CEO in August due to his health problems, and when the news of his death hit the Internet, Apple posted a picture of him on their homepage (see above) alone with this simple message:
“Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built, and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple.”
Jobs leaves behind his wife Laurene, the person he called the love of his life, along with four children.
But you know all this already.
I found out about Jobs’ death on Twitter, and for at least ten minutes, I don’t think I saw a single tweet that was about any other topic. His death took over the trending topics and, I’m guessing, is the reason why the fail whale came out to play for the first time in a long time. I saw messages of mourning from every corner of the world. One of my favorites (and I apologize that I can no longer find who originally tweeting this was “Stevie you’ll always be the apple of our i” and another, which I thought was beautifully perfect simply said “iSad.”
You don’t need another blog post to tell you that we’ve lost one of the greatest minds in the world, whether you are an Apple fan or not. Despite that fact, you’re here reading this, so I would like to pose a question to you instead: What happens now?
The world goes on. Despite the death of someone so world-changing, the earth won’t stop rotating. Even in our tech microcosm, life will continue. What happens now is that great people will go on to build upon the foundations that Jobs has given us to create things that even he couldn’t have imagined. Hundreds of years from now, new technology will be possible because of what Jobs did in his lifetime. What happens now is that we all are challenged to fill the gap, that hole created in the world when he passed away.
Non one can replace the incredible Steve Jobs, but if we all try just a little bit harder to be amazing at what we’re doing in life, whether that’s blogging or social media or community management or raising llamas or driving race cars or something else…if we all try just a little bit harder, I think we’ll honor his memory well.
In closing, I’d like to leave you with a video of Jobs’ 2005 Commencement Speech to the students at Stanford. He was standing before that class to deliver his speech, but I feel as though maybe he was actually speaking to all of us.
