[Chapter 18 verse 5] of Shrimad Bhagavadgita

Eagles in a Storm!

Did you know that Eagle knows when a storm is approaching long before it breaks?

The Eagle will fly to a high spot and waits for the winds to come.

When the storm hits, it sets its wings so that the wind will pick it up and lift it above the storm.While the storm rages below, the Eagle is soaring above it.

The eagle does not escape the storm. It simply uses the storm to lift itself higher. It rises on the winds that bring the storm.

When the storms of life come upon us - and all of us experience them - we can rise above them by setting our minds and our belief towards God.

The storms do not have to overcome us. We can allow God's power to lift us above them.

God enables us to ride the winds of the storm that brings sickness, tragedy, failure and disappointment in our lives. We can soar above the storm.

Remember, it is not the burdens of life that weigh us down, it is how we handle them.

"Those who hope in the lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like Eagles."

FLY MY EAGLE FRIEND! F L Y !!!

Thought for the life!

I think one of the greatest gift our creator has given us is the gift of anticipation and suspense. No body knows what is going to happen after 5 years, 1 year, 6 months a week this day or after this moment. How boring life would be if we knew how it would all turn out in advance. If nobody knows what is going to happen then you can know by deciding what you want to be, what exactly you want to be 5 years down the line. You can see your entire future. Visualize, dream, realize your potential and decide. One decision can create the future which you have imagined, can change your life for ever. In the next few moments, something could happen that could change the entire direction and quality of your life in an instant. But, it could happen only when you take a DECISION.

A lesson for life!

A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a Rs.500/- Note.

In the room of 200, he asked, "*/Who would like this 500 note?/*".

Hands started going up. He said, "*/I am going to give this note to one

of you but first let me do this"/*.

He proceeded to *crumple* the note up. He then asked, "*/Who still wants

it?/*" Still the hands were up in the air.

*/Well/*," he replied,

"*/What if I do this?/*". And he dropped it on the ground and started to

grind it into the floor with his shoe.

He picked it up, now all crumpled and dirty. "*/Now who still wants it?/*"

Still the hands went into the air. My friends, you have all learned a

very valuable lesson. No matter what I did to the money, you still

wanted it because it did not decrease in value. It was still worth Rs.500/-

Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the

Dirt by the decisions we make and the circumstances that come our way.

We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or

what will happen, you will never lose your value.

A lesson for all ages :-

One of the women offered to find out the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible Study.

That week, the woman called a silversmith and made an appointment to watch him at work. She didn't mention anything about the reason for her interest beyond her curiosity about the process of refining silver.

As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest as to burn away all the impurities.

The woman thought about God holding us in such a hot spot; then she thought again about the verse that says: "He sits as a refiner and purifier of silver." She asked the silversmith if it was true that he had to sit there in front of the fire the whole time the silver was being refined.

The man answered that yes, he not only had to sit there holding the silver, but he had to keep his eyes on the silver the entire time it was in the fire. If the silver was left a moment too long in the flames, it would be destroyed.

The woman was silent for a moment. Then she asked the silversmith, "How do you know when the silver is fully refined?"

He smiled at her and answered, "Oh, that's easy -- when I see my image in it"

If today you are feeling the heat of the fire, remember that God has his eye on you and will keep watching you until He sees His image in you.

************ ****

Pass this on right now. This very moment, someone needs to know that God is watching over them.

And, whatever they're going through, they'll be a better person in the end.

"Life is a coin. You can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once."

Mathematical Twist

Three friends went to a hotel.
The bill was Rs 75/-
Each one contributed Rs.25/-.
The waiter took the bill to the
cashier.

The cashier was happy & decided
to give them a discount of Rs.5/- & asked the waiter to return them
Rs.5/-.
Now the waiter was confused.
How to distribute Rs 5 among 3 persons?
He kept Rs 2 in his pocket &
gave one rupee to each one of the 3 persons.
So initially each one had contributed
Rs.25. Now as they are given 1 rupee back, their contribution reduces to
Rs 24.
They all contributed Rs 24 --
that is 24x3=72 & 2 rupees are in the waiters pocket.
The total becomes 74. But they
had paid Rs 75.
Where is the remaining 1 rupee?????????

Diet May Be the Key to Prevention and Treatment of Brain Tumors

(NaturalNews) Malignant brain tumor persists as one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality in adults and is the second leading cause of cancer death in children. There is little in the way of prevention offered by the medical establishment. Any current therapies for malignant brain tumors do not provide long-term management. Prescribed treatment ineffectively targets tumor cells while negatively impacting the health and vitality of normal brain cells. People are never again the same after receiving these therapies. Two new studies underscore the conclusion that diet may be the key for prevention and management of brain tumors.

Studies and Results

The Journal of Pharmacological Science, February 2007, reports a study in which researchers evaluated the ability of isothiocyanate iberin, a bioactive agent in the Brassicaceae species (cruciferous vegetables), to reduce proliferation and promote programmed cell death (apoptosis) in human glioblastoma cells which are malignant brain tumor cells usually occurring in the cerebrum of adults. The human glioblastoma cell cultures were treated with different concentrations of iberin and tested for growth inhibition, cytotoxicity, induction of apoptosis, and activation of caspases, enzymes that promote apoptosis.

Results indicated that iberin inhibited growth of tumor cells in cell proliferation assays, enhanced cytotoxicity, and induced apoptosis by activation of caspase. Findings from this study may provide a basis for potential usefulness of diet derived isothiocyanate iberin as a promising therapeutic micronutrient in the prevention and intervention of brain tumors.

In the February 2007 issue of Nutrition and Metabolism researchers report that in contrast to brain tumor cells, which lack metabolic flexibility and are largely dependent on glucose for growth and survival, normal brain cells can metabolize both glucose and ketone bodies for energy. Ketone bodies are three water soluble compounds that are produced as by-products when fatty acids are broken down for energy in the liver and kidney, and become sources of energy for the brain and heart.

This study evaluated the efficacy of KetoCal, a new nutritionally balanced high fat/low carbohydrate ketogenic diet for children with epilepsy, on the growth and vascularity of a malignant mouse astrocytoma and a human glioblastoma.

Adult mice were implanted with malignant brain tumors and KetoCal was administered to the mice in either unrestricted amounts or restricted amounts. The effects of KetoCal on tumor growth, vascularity, and mouse survival were compared with that of an unrestricted high carbohydrate standard diet. Results indicated that KetoCal administered in restricted amounts significantly decreased the intracerebral growth of the tumors by 65% and 35%, and significantly enhanced health and survival relative to that of the control groups receiving the standard low fat/high carbohydrate diet.

The restricted KetoCal diet reduced plasma glucose levels while elevating plasma ketone body levels.
Tumor microvessel density was less in the calorically restricted KetoCal groups than in the calorically unrestricted control groups. Additionally, gene expression for certain mitochondrial enzymes was lower in the tumors than in the contralateral normal brain suggesting that these brain tumors have reduced ability to metabolize ketone bodies for energy.

Researchers concluded that KetoCal has anti-tumor and antiangiogenic effects in experimental mouse and human brain tumors when administered in restricted amounts. The therapeutic effect of KetoCal for brain cancer management was largely due to the reduction of total caloric content, which reduced circulating glucose required for tumor growth. A dependency on glucose for energy together with defects in ketone body metabolism largely account for why the brain tumors grow minimally on either a ketogenic-restricted diet or on a standard-restricted diet. Researchers concluded that genes for ketone body metabolism should be useful for screening brain tumors that could be targeted with calorically restricted high fat/low carbohydrate ketogenic diets. They found KetoCal to be a safe and effective diet therapy that should be considered as an alternative therapeutic option for malignant brain cancer.

Nature cure for pains:-

Pain Relief: "Natural Cures" for Joint Pain and Discomfort By Jonny Bowden, PhD, CNS

Top

Long before the medical establishment decided to get on board, I was hearing about glucosamine from vets. It helps dogs and people with the pain and stiffness of arthritis. Since almost all dogs eventually suffer from arthritis, and larger dogs frequently suffer with a painful joint condition called hip dysplasia, the use of glucosamine sulfate is of more than just theoretical use in veterinary practice. And there are no "placebo effects" with dogs. They dont get better because they think they're "supposed" to they either feel (and act) better or they dont.

Glucosamine is naturally synthesized in the human body and is a basic building block of connective tissue, like the cartilage in your knee for example. While we have an ample amount of the stuff when were young, as we age we lose some of it, leading to the thinning of cartilage which frequently progresses to the common condition known as osteoarthritis.

Many studies have shown that glucosamine and/or chondroitin as beneficial in helping to repair damage to the joints caused by osteoarthritis. While it cant bring cartilage back, it can prevent further loss as well as reduce symptoms of pain, swelling, and stiffness or noise in the joints.

In two independent 3-year randomized, placebo-controlled studies, glucosamine sulfate was shown to slow progression of osteoarthritis symptoms.^1-2 After 3 years, participants given the glucosamine suflate showed no joint space narrowing whatsoever. Not only that, the glucosamine sulfate group showed a significant improvement in their WOMAC index (a standardized measure of pain) while there was a trend for worsening of pain in the placebo group.

MSM (methyl-sulfonyl methane) is terrific for joint pain, largely because of its high sulfur content. (Theres a reason people all over the world flock to hot sulfur baths for pain relief!) MSM blocks the transmission of impulses in nerve fibers that carry pain signals. One pilot study showed that 3 grams of MSM significantly reduced pain and improved physical function in 50 men and women 40-76 years old with knee pain.³ Another showed that the combination of MSM with glucosamine and chondrotrin sulfate was more effective than the glucosamine/chondrotrin combo alone.⁴

Arthritis is the most common form of disability in America and the prevalence of joint pain is likely to increase as the baby boomer generation ages. Natural remedies like glucosamine, chondroitin, and MSM can help empower us to take charge of our health and can significantly contribute to our well-being.

Best of all they do so without any serious side effects. And thats exactly what "natural cures" should be all about!

How To Trace An Email Sender From The Email Header, TRICK!!!!!!!!

Here I shall discuss, how to trace an email sender from the email header. I shall take my MSN account as an example. But before I go into depth I shall split the email header and explain each one of them for better understanding.
Viewing Email Header
Every e-mail comes with information attached to it that tells the recipient of its history. This information called a header. The above is the Full header of email .All this information comes with the email. The header contains the information essential to tracing an e-mail. The main components to look for in the header are the lines beginning with "From:" and "Received:" However, it might be instructive to look at what various different lines in the header mean.
MIME-Version: 1.0
Received: from rwcrmhc11.comcast.net ([204.127.198.35]) by mc7-f12.hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.0.2195.6713); Tue, 25 Nov 2003 19:56:18 -0800

Some e-mail programs, like Yahoo or Hotmail, have their full headers hidden by default In order to view the full header, you must specifically turn on that option. Some ways of doing this in different e-mail programs follow here:
Viewing full Header in Yahoo and Hotmail
Yahoo
Click Options -> Click Mail Preferences -> Click Show Headers -> Click "All" -> Click "Save"

Hotmail
Click Options -> Click Mail Display Headings (under "Additional Options") -> Click Message Headers -> Click "Full" ->
Click "OK"

Viewing full Header in Email Clients like (Outlook and Eudora etc)
Outlook Express
If you use OE, at least the version I have (5.5), you may not have much luck; it sometimes gives little more information than what you can see in the main window. But here's the application path anyway:
Click File/Properties/Details to find the header information.

Outlook
First, highlight the email in your Incoming window, right-click on it, and select Options. The window that comes up will have the headers at the bottom.

Eudora
Be sure the message is open, then Click the 'Blah, Blah, Blah' button from the Tool Bar, and the headers will appear.

Pegasus
Select Reader/Show All Headers/

Netscape Mail
Select Options/Headers/Show All Headers

Netscape Messenger 4.0 and 4.5
Select View/Headers/All

Now I will discuss the full header in detail:

Message ID:
It is used to identify the system from which the the message has originated (i.e. from the system the sender has logged in). However, this is too easy to forge, and is consequently not reliable.

X-Headers:
X- headers are user defined headers. They are inserted by email client programs or applications that use email. Here from the X- headers inserted into the email by the email client it is clear that the sender has used Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1106 to send this email.

X-Priority: 3
X-MSMail-Priority: Normal
X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1106

MIME-Version:
MIME stands for Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension. It tells the recipient what types of attachments are included in email. It is a format that allows people to send attachments that do not contain Standard English Words, but rather graphics, sounds, and e-mails written with other characters. The Mime-Version field merely confirms that the version of MIME used corresponds to the standard version (which is currently 1.0).

From:
Form is useless in tracing an e-mail. It consists of the email of the sender but this can be obviously be a fake. One can use any fake-mailer to fake the sender's name.
Content-Type:
This line tells the receiving e-mail client exactly what MIME type or types are included in the e-mail message. If the Content–Type is text/plain; charset="us-ascii" just tells us that the message contains a regular text message that uses English characters. ASCII is the American Standard Code for Information Interchange and is the system used to convert numbers to English characters.

Return-Path:
It is the address to which your return e-mail will be sent. Different e-mail programs use other variations of Return-Path:. These might include Return-Errors-To: or Reply-To etc.

Received:

This field is the key to find out the source of any e-mail. Like a regular letter, e-mails gets postmarked with information that tells where it has been. However, unlike a regular letter, an e-mail might get "postmarked" any number of times as it makes its way from its source through a number of mail transfer agents (MTAs). The MTAs are responsible for properly routing messages to their destination.

Let me strip-off the above email header to make the understanding easy. The header is splitted and the two received headers are given below.

Received Header 1: 204.127.198.35 - Tue, 25 Nov 2003 19:56:18 -0800
from rwcrmhc11.comcast.net ([204.127.198.35])
by mc7-f12.hotmail.com
with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.0.2195.6713)

Received Header 2: 68.37.24.150 - Wed, 26 Nov 2003 03:44:57 +0000
from pavilion (pcp03530790pcs.mnhwkn01.nj.comcast.net[68.37.24.150])
by comcast.net (rwcrmhc11)
with SMTP
id <20031126034457013001nk6pe>


The MTAs are "stamped" on the e-mail's header so that the most recent MTA is listed on the top of the header and the first MTA through which the e-mail has passed in listed on the bottom of the header. In the above sample e-mail header, e-mail first passed through 68.37.24.150 (pcp03530790pcs.mnhwkn01.nj.comcast.net), and at last made its way through 204.127.198.35 (rwcrmhc11.comcast.net).

In the Received Header 2, the one marked with red colour "pavilion" is either the domain name of the server from which the email has originated or the name of the computer from which the email has been sent. By doing a DNS query for "pavilion", it is confirmed that it is not a know host name hence, must be the name of the computer from which the mail has originated. "68.37.24.150" is the IP address from which the mail might have originated or it is the IP address of the ISP (Internet Service Provider) to which the user was logged on while sending the mail.

Note: Correct me if I am wrong, most of the time "HELO" is prefixed to the system name from which the mail has originated, but its accuracy is not reliable.

Trace who owns the IP address
Every computers hooked on to internet is assigned with an IP address. Individual users possess a dynamic IP address when they logged on to any ISP to access internet. These IP addresses are assigned by the ISP itself. Organization usually possess static/public IP address which is stored in a database of registries.

There are three major registries covering different parts of the world. They are

www.arin.net => American Registry of Internet Numbers (ARIN) : It assigns IP addresses for the Americas and for sub Saharan Africa.

www.apnic.net => Asia Pacific Network Information Centre (APNIC) : It covers Asia

www.ripe.net => Réseaux IP Européens (RIPE NCC) : It covers Europe

Thus, to find out which organization owns a particular IP address, you can make a "WHOIS" query in the database at any of these registries. You do this by typing the IP address into the "WHOIS" box that appears on each of these websites.

"Received Header" will have the IP address of the ISP in case the users has dialed up to the ISP while sending the email. But if the user has send the email from within the corporate then the corporate public/static IP address is logged.

By giving a "WHOIS" query for 68.37.24.150 at www.arin.net, the following result has been displayed:

Comcast Cable Communications, Inc. JUMPSTART-1 (NET-68-32-0-0-1)
68.32.0.0 - 68.63.255.255

From above queries it is found that the IP address (68.37.24.150) is owned "Comcast". By making further queries on "Comcast" it is found that it is the name of the ISP located in NJ, US - 08002. The result of further query is given below:

Now since the IP address found belongs to an ISP, it is clear that the sender has dialed up to this ISP while sending the email. For further enquiry we can then request the ISP to provide us with details of the user who has dialed up to them at that given point of time (Wed, 26 Nov 2003 03:44:57 +0000). If the ISP cooperates, they will check their user and message logs to see who was logged into that particular IP address at that time and date. This will reveals the sender's telephone number from which he/she has dialed to the ISP. Now once we have the telephone number we can easily retrieve the name and address of the sender.
Now the above case is solved but there are also other cases where the IP address found on the email header may be owned by an organisation or a cyber cafe. Below I have discussed how you can trace the sender in both of these cases.

Cases1: THE IP ADDRESS OWNED BY AN ORGANISATION

But in case the IP address found belongs to an organisation then you have to request them to provide information about the user who has send the mail from within the organisation network. They must have user and message logs on their firewall / proxy and can trace each of their computers connected at the given point of time. By supplying the organisation with the e-mail header of the offending e-mail, they can check these logs and hopefully produce information of the user of that machine.

Cases2: THE IP ADDRESS OWNED BY A CYBER-CAFE

In case it is found that the sender has sent the email from a cyber-cafe then it becomes a difficult task to trace him/her. The user may not be a frequent visitor to that cyber-cafe. But let's assume that you receive such mails frequently from that particular cyber-cafe then you can install "key-loggers" in the computers at the cafe. These programs records user's keystrokes, thus creating a record of everything that was typed at a particular terminal. By reviewing the key-logger logs you may be able to trace the sender in this case.

Note: These methods would aid greatly in identifying an e-mail sender, they also would impinge on the rights of others using the computers to conduct their personal business. Such a conflict defines the ongoing struggle between the fight against terrorism over the Internet and the right to privacy, which will continue to evolve in the years ahead.
