A New Requirement
received/uploaded attachments from one or more received mails and
compile a new mail with a few of those received attachments without
downloading and re-uploading the same.
Is it possible?
Most of the times, we forward mails with attachements to our friends.
During this procedure, there are options to either delink the
attachements or add a few more to the existing number. But, there is
no facility to attach a new attachment linked to another mail without
downloading and uploading the same to this mail.
As far as I know, this kind of functionality is not proivided so far
in any mail facility.
But, this kind of functionality will definitely help people who
connect to Net on weak connections. It is somethink like "Upload/
receive once and use any number of times".
Most of the times, the problem happens during file uploading on weak
Net connections.
And if this kind of facility is there, then there is no need to
download and upload the file while connecting to Net through public
computer. Straightaway, one can just send a mail with attachments
taken from other mails and push them toward the sender.
I think this kind of facility is possible; just like Contacts, if
Gmail lists out all the attachments we receive/send up to that point
of time and display the same under a link, this comes handy for the
user while sending a new mail with uploaded or received attachments
without downloading and uploading the same.
Please let me know your comments.

Earning through Photography
You might be thinking that because every mobile phone is equipped with a camera now, and every one knows how to take a rudimentary snap, then what the great deal about all this fuss is. You are right in one way! But, everyone whoever is equipped with the mobile camera is not taking pictures what others want and they are not trying to earn a livelihood on doing this but you.
Nowadays cameras are being stuffed with latest technology. Even if you want to take a bad picture intentionally, it is not possible. The least quality camera produces an average quality picture in today's world. So don't worry! However, what about those professional photographers who already have taken loads of photos using their sophisticated costly cameras? Yes. They are also there in the market catering the needs of companies and individuals who want quality stuff. However, they cannot go to every place to take pictures. They can't be omnipresent. They need somebody who present at the exact location at the right time to capture the scene and then send it to him or her so that they can give the final touchings and put the photo on sale. By supporting them, you can also earn a few bucks in the form of commission. For doing this kind of job, you do not need to be a professional. The only eligibility is to have a minimum 3-pixel digital good quality camera. That's all!
Internet offers many opportunities to the would-be professional photographers. There are so many sites out there so that you can upload and display your pictures directly from your digital camera. There is no need to spend a single penny. The space to display your photos will be provided freely by a few sites, which are enthusiastically looking for this kind of opportunity.
In today's world, every news channel needs photos/video to display while they cover an event. If you have the chance to provide a rare photo shot taken in a peculiar angle to them, it will be more than a few thousand bucks for you. Like this, if somebody likes your uploaded photos and are ready to buy them, no matter where they and you are, a transaction can be done using Paypal simply.
So smile this recession away by being a photojournalist!

Swadesh Movie Review
Swadesh - this movie is about an orphan who toils hard with little means available to him, goes to US, and achieves tremendous success in life before he hit his 30’s. After achieving the dream Green card, he decides to visit his old native place in India for 1 week. However, after coming to India, he is bombarded by the backward thinking and the lack of development of his village people there. He tries to convince them but they are adamant to change their views. Nevertheless, the hero won’t loose his patience; he decides to play it hard and finally proves his point by bringing power to every household in that village by spending his own bucks. The dreams of the villagers come true and everybody starts praising him. However, time has come to leave to US as he has already spent most of his leave. Therefore, he prepares for the journey but the villagers are not ready to leave him as they form an emotional attachment with the hero. The hero himself is not ready but forced to leave to US to complete his pending project there. Once he leaves to US, he starts feeling homesick and that feeling grows every second as he stays there to complete his work. Finally, he decides to sacrifice the Green card and the great American dreams for the sake of his own country and his own village people and finally, returns to India for permanent settlement.
Played by Sharukh Khan - as the hero of the movie – the movie sends a subtle message to all the viewers about the importance of determination, sincerity, and hard work of an young educated Indian who wants to develop and contribute knowledge to his own village, people, and country.

How To Overcome Every Day’s Nagging Problems
We all face a hell lot of problems in our real life. To escape them, we often tend to watch movies where our favorite heroes and heroines do all sorts of heroic things when they face similar kind of problems in reel life. The stunts they do are marvelous! Amazing! However, the solutions shown in movies cannot be implemented in our real life. This article explores and analyzes what we can do to overcome the real life problems in a practical way. Read on …
Most of the time we hear somebody say that life is full of problems. In one way, YES. Nevertheless, in other way, NO! How? You may ask. The simple answer is the birth of a problem lies in the depths of your imagination. If you start viewing a particular event or human character as your big problem, our mind supports the same and every time we come across that, our mind tries to analyze the same under a microscope. The result: the problem bloats itself every time we think about that finally forcing us to accept it.
We tend to see most of the situations that happen in real life from our own perspective. This perspective of ours has been built by our mind by mixing and mashing different kinds of experiences, so far we have faced after coming to this world. By default, we look at the world and the events happen there using this pre-fabricated mindset, which fails us in most of the cases to find solutions to our nagging and nasty problems. However, how to escape from this mindset?
There is a solution for every problem irrespective of its size and magnitude. For the pre-fabricated mindset also, there is a solution. Nevertheless, the solution demands to use your brain and explore your imagination by taking things into your hands. Actually, this is what happens when you go to a Hypnotherapist to overcome your nagging psychological problems. The therapist tries to give you a different kind of mindset other than your own default faulty ones. The new mindset allows you to see things and events differently, which in turn lightens your emotional burden on your heart. This lighter feeling makes you happy.
In the same way, this article suggests a solution following which you can face every problem in your daily life, analyze it objectively, and plan a solution to overcome the same. The logic is always think yourself as a balloon floating in water. The problems try to drown you in the form of waves every time. However, the balloon never drowns. It always escapes. So, imagine yourself as the balloon in every problematic context. The problem is like the wave that tries to drown the balloon. But, the balloon escapes and so you by designing a practical solution to your present problem by analyzing it objectively. The chances of overcoming a problem by planning a winning solution will improve if you adopt this kind of mindset.
Best of luck!

Save Every Single Drop of Water
Water, one of the necessities of human survival, is in scarcity throughout the world now. Human beings in the name of development have sucked water out of the deepest layers of earth using modern and latest technical equipment. Water is the main essential ingredient of our body also. If there is no water on this earth, then human survival will be in question. Keeping the scarcity of water in view, this article tries to explain the necessity and value of every single drop of water to the human beings of planet earth.
The water tables throughout the world have already come down. Potable water is now a commodity. The business acumen of the planet earth human beings is being used in trading and treating life’s essential component – water - as a commodity. Since potable water levels have gone down, people are buying water in liters for drinking purpose. There is so much business going on in the name of purified water.
The present situation is pitiful. Humans are not realizing what they have been doing. It is the universal truth that development should not come at the expense of the nature itself. The frequency of the present natural calamities – earthquakes, tornadoes, tsunamis, etc – is the clear evidence to what they did to planet earth so far in the name of the development. The artificial growth in which human beings have believed in is nothing but a sarcastic effort. Believing in what they have been doing is good and best, human beings are systematically destroying the precious natural resources. Since this kind of growth is inorganic and planet earth cannot sustain this concrete growth any more, she has become a rebel and has been causing a series of natural calamities, which in turn had created loss of wealth and property.
Since the ground water levels have come down, the seawater started creeping in to the main land aquifers and in turn turning the remaining potable water salty. Lands, which were earlier abundant with natural vegetation, have been turning into deserts. The situation is so scaring that even the agricultural lands, which are crucial to planet earth, are becoming barren lands because of lack of water. After the human beings started tinkering with nature, the vagaries of nature increased; planet earth is slowly moving toward becoming a huge desert.
In the light of the above scenario, this article pleads with everyone, whoever reads it, to take a pledge on his or her own to save every single drop of water. Utmost care has to be taken to use the precious water resources at present available to us. There should be a planned use for every single drop of water and efforts should be made to conserve as much water as possible for our future generations. This article warns that if care has not been taken in saving the precious water resources, now, it will not take much time that life will be wiped out of this planet earth in the near future.
