World's last typewriter factory 'shuts down' in Mumbai

Godrej and Boyce - the last company left in the world that was still manufacturing typewriters - has closed its production plant in Mumbai, India.

The company is now left with its last 200 machines - the majority of which are Arabic language models.
Although typewriters became obsolete years ago in the west, they were still common in India - until recently.

But with consumers switching to computers the demand for the machines started falling drastically in the last ten years.

Master Blasters- Top Ten

Shane Watson's 15 hits beyond the boundary against Bangladesh helped him take the lead in an elite list of batsmen who have slammed their way past the opposition, inflicting maximum damage allowed under cricketing laws. A look at the top ten:

1. Xavier Marshal (2008): The Jamaican came to the crease, lofted 12 massive hits beyond the boundary to help himself to 157and in the process, left behind him a completely demoralized Canadian bowling attack.

Diet for kidney stones

1. Drinking 8-10 glasses of liquid daily helps keep the urine dilute - which reduces the concentration of stone forming minerals in the urine.

2. Reducing the salt (sodium) in the diet helps reduce the amount of calcium in the urine. Avoid foods high in sodium such as processed meats, canned soups, noodle and salty snacks.

3. Studies have shown that the inclusion of at least two servings of high calcium foods per day in the diet reduces the rate at which calcium-containing kidney stones form. A cup of low-fat milk contains 300 mg of calcium.

Self Doubt is a silent killer

Everyone experiences self-doubt at some point in our lives. For many people, self-doubt can be pervasive, even crippling. It can impact your relationships. It destroys confidence. It causes procrastination or lack of effort. It can be extremely frustrating to live with the reverberating voice in your head telling you you’re not good enough to do or have whatever you might want.

Self-doubt is grounded in fear – fear of your own greatness, fear of your own power, fear of success. What if you really are that brilliant and wonderful?

Foods for abs

1. Green vegetables are a good source of calcium, which is essential for muscle contraction. If you want flat abs, have at least three servings a day.

2. It helps reduce abdominal fat. The probiotic bacteria present in most yoghurts help maintaining a healthy digestive system and can be consumed several times a day.

3. Almonds contain protein, fibre, vitamin E and magnesium - essential to produce energy, build and maintain muscle.

10 tips to prevent diabetes

1. Get physically active and strengthen your body's machinery for handling blood glucose- the key to diabetes prevention. Moreover, exercising regularly helps you lose weight, which further reduces your risk of developing diabetes.

2. Excess weight makes it harder for the body to use insulin to control blood sugar. So, maintain a healthy weight by eating right and exercising regularly.

3. Hydrogenated vegetable oils and other trans fats have been shown to contribute to heart disease and may also contribute to diabetes type 2.

Self care tips for high blood pressure


  • Lifestyle changes can help control and prevent high blood pressure, even if one is on blood pressure medication.



  • Try a diet, which emphasises fruits, vegetables, whole grains and low-fat dairy foods. Get plenty of potassium, which can help prevent and control high blood pressure. Eat less saturated fat and total fat. Limit the amount of sodium in the diet. Avoid coffee and colas.




  • If overweight, losing even 5 pounds can lower blood pressure.

    Lanka to name new skipper next week

    Sri Lanka is all set to get a new cricket captain next week, days after Kumar Sangakkara stepped down following the team's runners-up finish at the World Cup.

    "The selectors need to discuss the issue with the interim committee members of Sri Lanka Cricket. This meeting will take place next week after the current New Year holiday period," Chairman of selectors Duleep Mendis, who took over after the resignation of Aravinda de Silva, told the local media here.

    Aamir Khan steps aside for Shah Rukh Khan

    Actors Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan were all set to clash at the Box Office on Christmas this year, when the films of two superstars was set to release on the same day. Shah Rukh’s ‘Don2’ and Reema Kagti’s film which stars Aamir, Rani Mukerji and Kareena Kapoor were slated to release on the same day. However, plans seem to have changed.

    Shah Rukh’s film will release as per the earlier set date, but Aamir’s film will be released on a later date. Sources close to Reema’s film have stated that the producer don’t want to take any chance as ‘Don’ was a big hit, and so its sequel is eagerly awaited.

    Gmail Takes Personalization to The Next Level

    Google, very recently, added a volley of themes in its mail service, Gmail. With the look of the mail pages looking cool with the humongous array of colors and characters, the theme gained instant popularity.

    Now, Google hands over the makeover power in your hands! Taking personalization to a new level, Gmail now allows you to make your picture as the theme of your mail account, and have the color co-ordination redone, too.

    Samsung Galaxy Prevail review: Surprisingly elegant

    Take a look at the Samsung Galaxy Prevail and you may agree, it's one classy-looking smartphone. A silky-smooth 3.5-inch touch screen is rimmed with metallic gray, and the phone's sides and back are robed in soft-touch material.

    However, this is no premium Android phone, and that's OK. The handset runs a respectable Android 2.2 Froyo operating system (sans TouchWiz), has a regular HVGA display (versus the Super AMOLED screen of other Galaxy phone,) and sports only a 2-megapixel camera and camcorder without a flash.

    Indian Government Bans Nokia’s Push Email Service

    Nokia’s upcoming push email service has been banned by the Indian Government. The Ministry of Home Affairs has relayed directives to the Department of Telecom stating that Nokia’s new push email product should not be permitted to launch in India until a system is put in place that will allow the government to monitor communications sent a received on devices.

    In view of the Intelligence Bureau’s report, Department of Telecommunications is requested to advice the Telecom Service Providers

    People want iPads, not tablets

    Ask anyone today why one should own a tablet and no one will be able to give a convincing answer. Then why are all those iPads virtually flying off the shelves? The answer is simple; people don't want tablets, they want iPads. Call it Apple's marketing genius or anything else but they managed to revive a dying segment and turn it into a profitable one. They made everyone take notice of it and now suddenly it is the hottest thing in the technological space. Yet, competitors are unable to match Apple's success in the segment, despite of the fact that on paper they offer everything that Apple's device does, at times even more. So what is not working for them?

    Poor fielding let us down against Kochi Tuskers: Tendulkar

    Mumbai Indians skipper Sachin Tendulkar expressed his disappointment over fielding of his team, and hoped to improve in the forthcoming matches of the Indian Premier League .

    Despite a century by Tendulkar, Kochi Tuskers beat Mumbai Indians by eight wickets after chasing down their big total of 182 runs at Wankhede Stadium.

    Recounting the mistakes of his players in the match, Tendulkar said the rival team fielded comparatively better than them.

    Salman-Kangna's late night rendezvous

    Seems like something is cooking between Kangna and Salman. Buzz is that Kangna visited Salman at midnight on the sets of his upcoming movie, Bodygaurd. The duo spent hours chatting and she was seen leaving from the sets in the actor's car early in the morning. Kangna Ranaut was spotted leaving the sets of Atul Agnihotri's Bodyguard in Filmistan where Salman Khan was shooting. She left in Salman's car in the wee hours of Thursday morning.

    K R Keerti – Girl Who Will Become Permanent Part of City History

    K R Keerti, a girl born in a rich family from Andhra Pradesh, may be a stranger to the city and its residents. She made her exit from the world before she could bloom and go through life’s experiences. Her unexpected death shocked her parents and other members of her family, who loved Keerti from the depths of their hearts.

    Keerti is about to become embedded permanently in the history of the city, and the people of the district and nearby places will ever remain grateful to her. Because, a well-equipped and modern hospital building will come up as part of Lady Goschen Hospital in the city, in her name.

    Teen Thay Bhai : Movie Review

    Teen Thay Bhai may have been produced by Rakeysh Mehra but it has been directed by first-timer Mrigdeep Singh Lamba who does show promise as a filmmaker to watch out for. Just that his first film ends up as a half-blown venture where there are too many theatrics and too many loosely edited scenes to allow the film to unfold as an uninterrupted laugh riot. Now that’s sad, because in terms of characterizations, the film is riveting. Om Puri’s loud, crabby, me-centric Punjabi businessman act is quite funny, specially when it comes to his attempts to get his overweight daughters married.

    SRK in Ajmer, offers chaddar on mother's anniversary

    The badshah of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan, came to Ajmer dargah on Friday to place a chaddar on his mother's 20th death anniversary. The entire region went berserk as the star "emerged".

    "I came to get his autograph and was also hopeful of posing for a photo with him," said Sunil, student of DAV College Ajmer. A large contingent of police was deployed to curb any untoward incident.

    SRK was taken towards the rear gate, but fans even got a whiff of this and had assembled there.

    IPL-4: We are playing IPL not to compete, but to win: Gambhir

    Kolkata Knight Riders ( KKR )) skipper Gautam Gambhir has said that his team is playing in the IPL to win matches with the combination of world-class players.

    After beating Rajasthan Royals (RR) in the ongoing Indian Premier League , Gambhir said that the nine wicket win over the RR had been a moral boost up for the team and has brought a lot of positivity in the players.

    "Look we are not here to compete, we are her to win. Honestly speaking we have got some world class players and once we are there we want to finish it off on a higher note and this kind of win only gives us more confidence.

    Why doesn't the iPad support multiple users?

    It's been just over a month since I got my iPad 2 on launch day. For the most part, I absolutely love it. More often than not, I find myself reaching for it at times when previously I'd open up my MacBook. It's totally filled a void in my tech life I had not known existed, and for that I am grateful.

    However, unlike my MacBook Pro, the iPad is curiously missing what I think is a must-have piece of functionality. Why doesn't the iPad support multiple users?

    Ganguly for Kochi Tuskers?

    Just ask the skeptics how hard it is to deny Sourav Ganguly a successful comeback. According to sources, Ganguly, who wasn't picked in the Kolkata Knight Riders squad during the auction, could still be seen in the fourth edition of the IPL, this time in new franchise Kochi Tuskers Kerala's colours.

    With leg-spinner Steven Smith pulling out from the rest of the IPL season with an ankle injury, KTK's team owners have shown interest in bringing Ganguly on board as the Australian's replacement. All that remains, apparently, is the governing council nod. “Ganguly and the Kochi franchise are in talks. It is no secret that he is still training and is keen to play in the IPL,” said the source.

    Lokpal panel's first meet today; co-chair in CD controversy

    New Delhi: Shanti Bhushan, picked by civil society representatives to co-chair a new committee in charge of drafting a law on corruption, is now the epicenter of a new controversy. The committee is meeting for the first time today.

    A CD - sent anonymously to media houses - purportedly has a conversation between politicians Amar Singh, Mulayam Singh Yadav and Shanti Bhushan.
    The voice of a man purported to be Shanti Bhushan suggests that a judge can be bribed (NDTV is withholding the name of the judge since we cannot verify the contents of the CD).

    In T20 age, 2011 World Cup broke all records

    After the World Cup storm, one was expecting a lull, a period of pause, time for celebrating and savouring a famous win. Instead, we are being bombarded from all sides by the IPL, which is once again being marketed as a glitzy product designed to rake in new audiences for the game, which is already the most popular sport in the country.

    Not a great fan of this most abbreviated version of the game, I would till last year still watch a game or two, but am finding it too difficult now to assume the role of a sadist and relish batsmen butchering bowlers.

    I am not the only one to feel this way, especially after the World Cup once again established the primacy of the 50-50 game.

    Salman's film faces the fire

    Salman Khan is angry. And this time, not with anybody from the film industry. A music channel has been running 'trade analysis' shows, questioning the market viability of his next film Ready costarring Asin.

    The trade analysis report being telecast on the channel raises questions like 'Will Ready meet the expectations?' and 'Has the price of the film been exaggerated to earn more profits?' among others.

    The report also underlines the fact that the producer of Ready, Bhushan Kumar's track record has not been too great in the recent past

    Model Poonam Pandey to be part of Khatron Ke Khiladi 4

    I made error of judgement in World Cup semifinal: Afridi

    KARACHI: Impressed with Mahendra Singh Dhoni' captaincy in the World Cup final, Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi said he too should have promoted himself in the order in the semifinal against India.

    In the final against Sri Lanka, Dhoni came up the order and batted at No.5 which proved to be a masterstroke. Dhoni shouldered the responsibility, hitting a match-winning unbeaten 91.

    Afridi said he is not a born leader and he could have shown better judgement in the high-pressure match against the arch-rivals.

    ODI record a bonus for Watson

    It wasn't until he walked off the ground that opener Shane Watson started pondering whether he had broken Australia's one-day international cricket scoring record with his unbeaten 185.

    Watson's 96-ball stay in Monday's nine-wicket thrashing of Bangladesh in Dhaka also included the most sixes ever hit by a player in a single innings (15) and the highest proportion of a team total, in Australia's 1-232.

    Watson only three months ago hit what is now the sixth-highest score by an Australian, 161 not out against England at the MCG.

    Giving Tendulkar Bharat Ratna would require change of rules

    The calls for bestowing Sachin Tendulkar with the ‘Bharat Ratna’ may have got louder after India’s World Cup triumph but giving the country’s highest civillian honour to the batting icon would require tweaking of the criteria that has been laid down for the coveted award.

    The ‘Bharat Ratna’ was started in 1954 and has so far been given to 41 eminent personalities, none of whom are sports-persons, the reason being the criteria for the coveted honour.

    Sarabhai asks Hazare to retract Modi praise

    Danseuse and activist Mallika Sarabhai, who was one of the vocal supporters of Anna Hazare's anti-corruption crusade, asked the social reformer to retract his praise of Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi for development work. Sarabhai, who spearheaded the support for Hazare in the state, said she will distance herself from the movement if Hazare does not take back his endorsement of Modi.

    In her e-mail to the veteran Gandhian, she said "We are deeply shocked by your endorsement of Narendra Modi's rural development. There has been little or no rural development in this state. In fact, village grazing lands and irrigated farmlands have been stealthily taken by the government and sold off at ridiculous prices to a small club of industrialists.

    Won't force my son to become a cricketer: Tendulkar

    Mumbai: Batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar today said that Indian team's World Cup victory has had a huge impact on his son, Arjun, but he would not force him to become a cricketer.

    Talking to reporters today at Wankhede Stadium -- the venue of the historic triumph -- Tendulkar said, "I was inspired by Indian team's victory in 1983 World Cup.

    Resting Laptop on Legs Can Be Dangerous

    Beware -- people who work with alaptop on their legs can permanently damage their skin.

    A medical report has found that placing the devices next to the skin for long periods can lead to "toasted skin syndrome", an unusual-looking mottled skin condition caused by long-term heat exposure.

    In one case, a 12-year-old boy developed a sponge-patterned skin discolouration on his left thigh after playing computer games a few hours every day for several months, reports the Telegraph.

    "He sensed that the laptop got hot on the left side. But he still did not change its position," said Swiss researchers.

    History of the Macbook

    Apple's first attempt at a portable battery powered computer was the Macintosh Portable. It was powered by a superfast 16MHz processor with 1MB of RAM. It had 4MB of ROM and weighed 7.2kgs. Wonder why it was called a portable and not a luggage bag.
    The PowerBook 100 was unveiled at the COMDEX computer expo in Las Vegas, on October 21, 1991 at an affordable $2300. It was still powered by the breathtakingly fast 16MHz processor, 2-8MB of Memory, 9-inch monochrome backlit LCD display with a resolution of 640x400. The iPad today is thousands of times more powerful than this machine.

    Mohammad Hafeez followed up his two wickets with a half-century as Pakistan thrashed West Indies in Mirpur and stormed into the semi-finals

    Handshakes all around. Smiles for Pakistan, disappointment writ large on the West Indies faces. They just did not turn up today. Gul softened them by nailing Gayle, and the rest had no answers against some sharp and incisive spin. Serious questions to be answered about their combination, and the elephant in the room is their captain, whose presence in the side kept out an arguably more talented allrounder.

    World's biggest source of spam e-mails shut down

    London : The world's most prolific source of spam e-mails -- an international network of virus-infected computers -- has been shut down in a series of coordinated raids by Microsoft and US federal authorities.

    The Rustock botnet had for years generated billions of e-mails per day, promoting unlicensed online pharmacies and cut-price anti-impotence pills. A botnet is a collection of software agents that run autonomously and automatically.

    But early last week, security firms noticed that e-mail traffic from Rustock completely collapsed, the Telegraph reports.

    Shoaib Akhtar to Retire After World Cup

    Mercurial Pakistan pacer Shoaib Akhtar will retire from international cricket after the World Cup ending a tempestuous career that was marred by several controversies, including a dope scandal. The 35-year-old reportedly broke the news to his teammates and manager in Colombo.

    With an injury-ravaged body finding it tough to withstand the rigours of international cricket, Akhtar was looking at the World Cup as his final shot at glory. He was impressive in the opening match against Sri Lanka but form began to desert to him as the event progressed prompting the team management to drop him for the last match against Zimbabwe.

    11 Year Old Rajkot Boy Scores Full Marks in Microsoft Exam

    A city boy has become the youngest student to equal the world record of obtaining full 1,000 marks in an online computer exam conducted by US-based multinational Microsoft Corp.

    Akshit Jayesh Dhruv, a Class V student, appeared in the exam on March 16 and obtained full marks, said Chirag Kothari, Centre Head of Inside Tomorrow Computer Academy, where the 11-year-old studied.

    Nearly 17,000 candidates, from as many as 119 countries and studying from Standard III to post graduates, appeared in the exam in which Akshit was ranked first, Kothari said.

    Sachin Tendulkar puts integrity above quest for 100th ton

    Sachin Tendulkar did not get his 100th ton on Sunday but even his early dismissal was evidence of the integrity with which he has played the game for over two decades.

    Against the West Indies on Sunday, Sachin decided to walk off despite being given not out by Australian umpire Steve Davies.

    A quarterfinal place had already been sealed, Virender Sehwag was ruled out of the game, yet the MS Chidambaram Stadium was jam-packed an hour before the game started.

    Ind vs WI: India beat West Indies by 80 runs, face Australia in quarters

    CHENNAI: The skeletons had started to tumble out of the cupboard when Zaheer Khan struck. Devon Smith got out, the brittle West Indian middle-order crumbled, and India glossed over the flaws with an 80-run victory.

    But along the course of the Chepauk struggle on Sunday evening, it was there for everyone to see that this Indian team is not in best shape.

    The lottery of knock-outs beckon the co-hosts now and a couple of good days may still take India to the final, but on current form, it can be safe to say that Dhoni and Co. are definitely not the favourites in this tournament any more.

    West Indies is a team desperately short of talent these days and the side they fielded on Sunday (without Kemar Roach and Chris Gayle) would have struggled against any decent opponent.

    Most of you are aware of mp3 file format as its one of the most popular audio format and availability of it is virtually everywhere. But I think its rare that you would have heard of M4A format.

    What is M4A format?

    Ways to Transfer Emails from One Gmail account to Another

    If you have two Gmail accounts then you would not want to open each one to check mails in different browsers, so let’s check out the three different ways with which you can transfer mails between the two Gmail accounts easily and effortlessly.

    1. Setup a Filter for Forwarding all mails
    =>Setting up a filter for forwarding your mails is the simplest of all, for setting up the filter, all you will need to do is set up the filter which basically forwards all the incoming mails in your old Gmail account to the new Gmail account. If you use this problem then you also might have to live with the problem that you will have to keep your old Gmail account active simultaneously with the new one and also if you have joined some mailing lists and if your new account is not a part of that then you need to check your old Gmail account periodically.

    Problem with Dual Sim Mobile Phones in India

    From the past year there has been a huge rise in the sale of the Dual SIM Mobile phones in India which is randing in around 1,00,000 Dual-sim handsets sold every month but now there is a stop on this and you cannot even guess the reason for this. Somasundaram Ramkumar who is a Madurai resident holds a patent for ‘Phones with Plurality of SIM Cards’ which means that whenever someone sells a handset with Dual-SIM facility, they need to pay RamKumar a royalty of Rs35 and this Patent is valid for 5 long years. This Patent can help him become quick rich because the popularity of these handsets is increasing and all the importers and manufacturers have to pay Rs35 before they sell the handset to the consumers.

    Group B – Possible Outcomes

    The standings at the moment: SA - 8 points (5 matches); India - 7 (5); England - 7 (6); WI - 6 (5); Bangladesh - 6 (5)

    SA have already qualified for the quarterfinals. Ireland and Netherlands are out of contention with one match left against each other.

    1st Scenario - South Africa beat Bangladesh [Most likely]
    India and England will be through to the QFs.
    If WI beat India, they will qualify.
    If WI lose to India, they will need a better NRR than Bangladesh to qualify.
    If WI tie with India, they will qualify.

    2nd Scenario - Bangladesh beat South Africa [Not very likely]
    Bangladesh will qualify for quarterfinals
    WI will have to beat India to reach the QFs

    Sangakkara leads Sri Lanka to a win over NZ

    Mumbai: Sri Lanka crushed New Zealand by 112 runs on Friday to finish their World Cup Group A campaign with a flourish.

    Skipper Kumar Sangakkara scored his first World Cup century to help Sri Lanka recover from the early loss of both openers and reach 265-9, then his bowlers proved far too strong for New Zealand.

    Muttiah Muralitharan ignored an apparent hamstring injury to take 4-25 as the tournament co-hosts dismissed New Zealand for 153 to record their first win over a test-ranked team at the tournament.

    Sri Lanka will finish second in Group A behind the winner of Saturday's match between defending champion Australia and Pakistan.

    New Zealand, which also lost to Australia earlier in the group stage, can finish no better than third.

    India can't win World Cup, Dhoni is dreaming: Dean Jones

    Given their weak bowling and unimpressive fielding even the high quality batsmen cannot save India's World Cup campaign, feels former Australian batsman Dean Jones who says winning the coveted trophy will remain just a dream for Mahendra Singh Dhoni's men.

    "The three main common denominators consistent with all World Cup champion teams are: Your top four batsmen must be of a high quality. They must have the technique to play the new ball, as well as have the power and stroke play during powerplays. Your top four bowlers must be of high quality, able to absorb pressure and bowl defensively in powerplays. If you can't field, don't bother turning up!" Jones said in his column for "The Age". "All this taken into account, I do not believe India will win the World Cup with its current form. Tell Dhoni, he's dreaming," wrote Jones in his article.

    Love Marriage VS Arrange Marriage

    Love Marriage: Resembles procedural programming language. We have some set functions like flirting, going to movies together, making long conversations on phone and then try to fit all functions to the candidate we like.
    Arranged Marriage: Similar to object oriented programming approach. We first fix the candidate and then try to implement functions on her. The main object is fixed and various functions are added to supplement the main program. The functions can be added or deleted.

    Love Marriage: It is a throwaway type of prototype as client requirements rises with time thus it is a dynamic system and difficult to maintain.
    Arranged Marriage: Requirements are well defined so use of waterfall model is possible.

    Marriage Proposal by Software Professional

    Dear Ms. ________,

    Baby, I ‘v seen you yesterday while surfing on local train platform and realized that you are the only site I was browsing for. For long time, I have been lonely, trying to find a bug in my life and you can be a real debugger for me now.

You are not only beautiful by face but all your ActiveX controls are attractive as well.
