New Delhi, February 28, 2011


Salary earners having an income of less than Rs 5 lakh a year will not need to file tax returns from this year, a finance ministry official said. “Salaried people, may be up to Rs 5 lakh...they need not file the (income tax) return,” CBDT chairman Sudhir Chandra said at the customary post-budget press conference. The exemption from filing tax returns come into effect from the assessment year 2011-12.

: One More Day to Live

One More Day to Live

"One More Day to Live
Be simple n humble like grass because when storms attack,

all big trees get uprooted, but simple grass survives.





One More Day to Live…



If I had only one more day to live,

All love, praise, and glory to you I'd give.

I'd try my best to put a smile on someone's face To share with them your saving grace.



I'd remember things about my life

The times you were there through fun and strife, And thank you then for all you've done.

Without you no victories would have been won.



If I have one more day before I die

I would apologize to the kid I made cry.

I would take back the harsh words said to everyone, And fill their hearts with laughter and fun.



If I only had one more day

I wouldn't push anyone away.

I wouldn't try to hurt a friend

Because I should love them to the very end.



Why not live each day as if it were our last Looking towards our future and forgetting the past To be a Christian each day we live And most importantly to always give.

Only nationals can run recruitment agencies in UAE(Gulf News)



Dubai: Recruitment agencies must be managed and owned by Emiratis only and those who break this law will be prosecuted, and would face hefty fines and jailed.
"Recruitment agencies cannot be owned or managed by expatriates or rented to expatriates," said a senior official from the Ministry of Labour.
In a meeting with owners of labour recruitment agencies at the Ministry of Labour premises yesterday Humaid Bin Deemas, acting Director-General, said that the meeting was only for Emiratis and expatriates cannot talk or participate in the meeting.
He told the gathering that he will not accept any comment or question or discussion from expatriates or from PROs (Public Relations Officers).
Bin Deemas told an Arab expatriate in the meeting that he does not have the right to speak because he was an expatriate.
"I invited only Emiratis not expatriates to attend this meeting to discuss the new decision of the Ministry of Labour No1283/2010 on regulating and licensing private recruitment agencies," he said.

Tough Laws around the world

FREEDOM OF HUMANS VERSUS LEGALITY OF TOUGH LAWS

Ignorance is no defense especially when it comes to ignorance of the laws in countries you plan to visit. While it may seem natural to study some of the general customs and laws in major foreign countries you might not expect, for example, to have to look for strange law changes in somewhere like Florida. Most places in the world are relatively easy to get along in. Some strange laws are nothing more than folklore. Every once in a while, though, you're going to run into something a bit off the wall and it's important for you to be prepared in advance.




[10] DON'T FEED THE PIGEONS (ITALY)

In Italy it is illegal to feed the pigeons. Ok, that's a bit of a blanket statement. The rule actually has the potential to change from city to city. Make sure you leave the pigeons alone while you're in Venice, though the locals are tired of cleaning up pigeon poop. You'll also want to avoid jumping into fountains, walking around without your shirt on (would you DO that as a tourist), and sitting on the sidewalk to eat your lunch. Fines range from a warning to monetary infractions anywhere from $50 to $600.

Catholic Minister shot dead in Pakistan

For all those who follow the Catholic News, must have read the article about Shahbaz Bhatti . We also had, today he was shot dead. News link - here.
May his soul rest in peace. We definitely need more 'bold' people like him, may the good lord turn us into one.

Shahbaz Bhatti, a Catholic and Pakistan’s minorities minister was shot dead for his movement against Pakistan's Blasphemy law.

“I have been told by pro-Taliban religious extremists that if I will continue to speak against the blasphemy law, I will be beheaded,” Shahbaz Bhatti

Bhatti, a Roman Catholic, is fearless, “As a Christian, I believe Jesus is my strength. He has given me a power and wisdom and motivation to serve the suffering humanity".

“I follow the principles of my conscience, and I am ready to die and sacrifice my life for the principles I believe,” he said.

Scientific Facts

Traveling at light speed, your ship could go from New York to Los Angeles 70 times in less than one second. In that same one second you could make seven and a half trips around the earth at the equator.


Uncertianity Principle : It is impossible to know the position and motion of an elementary particle (e.g., an electron) at the same time. Werner Heisenberg discovered the Uncertianity Principle. Werner’s best subjects were mathematics, physics, and religion, but his record throughout his school career was excellent all round. In fact his mathematical abilities were such that in 1917 (when he was 16) he tutored a family friend who was at the university studying calculus.


Antimatter are particles of the same mass and composition as protons and electrons, but with an opposite electrical charge. When matter converts to energy, some residue is always left. Only part of the matter can be converted into energy. Not so with antimatter. When antimatter collides with matter, 100 percent of both matter and antimatter are converted into usable energy. A gram of antimatter would carry as much potential energy as 1,000 space shuttle external tanks carry.

The longest nerve cell in your body, the sciatic nerve, runs from your lower spine to your foot, roughly two to three feet in length!


The crust of the earth is solid. So is the inner core. But in between, the outer core and mantle (90 percent of the mass of the earth) are liquid to molten semi-solid. We do not live on a particularly solid planet.


Darwin believed that humanoids emerged in Africa. No one believed him for 50 years, until Dart uncovered his famed skull in 1924.
