FINALLY SOMEONE HAS CLEARED THIS UP.

For centuries, Hindu women have worn a spot on their foreheads.

We have always naively thought that it had something to do with their religion.

The true story has recently been revealed by the Indian Embassy in Washington, D.C.

When these beautiful women get married, she brings with her, a dowry.
On her wedding night, the husband scratches off the spot to see if he has won either a convenience store, a gas station, a donut shop or a motel in the United States.

Just thought you would like to know.

Partai Demokrat Rendahkan Golkar
Kalla: Mimpi Buruk Kalau Golkar Cuma Dapat 2,5 Persen

SBY Tegur Waketum PD 'Singgung' JK
INILAH.COM, Bogor - Berandai-andai hitungan perolehan suara Partai Golkar bisa saja hanya 2,5 persen membuat Waketum Partai Demokrat Ahmad Mubarok mendapat teguran dari Ketua Dewan Pembina PD SBY. SBY mengaku terperanjat dengan hal tersebut.


"Saya sudah memberikan teguran langsung kepada kader Partai Demokrat Saudara Mubarok yang saya nilai telah mengeluarkan statemen, andaikata apa yang diucapkan itu persis dengan yang diangkat media massa. Karena statemen Mubarok itu di luar sepengetahuan partai, apalagi saya," tegas SBY.


Hal ini disampaikan SBY dalam jumpa pers di kediamannya di Puri Cikeas, Bogor, Selasa (10/2). SBY mengaku telah disampaikan mengenai isu yang sedang beredar hari ini. Isu tersebut dianggap panas sehingga JK sebagai partnernya mengeluarkan komentar.


"Saya juga terus terang terperanjat dengan isi atau konten pernyataan seperti itu. Saya tidak ingin kader ceplas ceplos atau reckless. Sungguh di luar dugaan," ujar SBY. [sss]


INILAH.COM, Jakarta - Meski telah menetapkan SBY sebagai capres, Partai Demokrat tak mengumumkan nama cawapresnya. Ditambah dengan pernyataan Wakil Ketua Umum Ahmad Mubarok yang terkesan arogan, para analis menyimpulkan bahwa Partai Demokrat kali ini memang meremehkan Golkar. Benarkah?


"Pak Mubarok mengatakan kalau Partai Golkar bisa saja hanya mendapatkan suara sekitar 2,5 persen dan PKS 20 persen. Pak Mubarok mengatakan justru yang besar dong. Terlepas dari itu hanya contoh atau bukan," kata Direktur Eksekutif Indo Barometer Mohammad Qoodari.


Hal ini disampaikan dia di sela-sela acara diskusi 'Opini Publik dan Strategi Kampanye' di Hotel Sari Pan Pacific, Jakarta, Selasa (10/2).


"Rapimnas Demokrat harus memberikan kepastian. Apalagi pemilu sudah dekat. Sebab hanya punya dua pilihan. Satu, tetap dengan Golkar atau JK, dan kedua, memilih wapres yang lain, entah dari parpol atau tidak," ujar Qodari.


Menurut dia, harusnya SBY yang diusung Demokrat sebagai capres bisa memahami kondisi psikologis anggota Golkar yang sedang gelisah sekarang ini. Sebab sebagai partai besar, Golkar hingga saat ini belum menetapkan capres dan cawapresnya.


"Jadi bantulah dengan memberikan kepastian itu. Atau paling tidak kriteria cawapres sudah ada," ucap mantan peneliti CSIS ini. [jib/sss]

Can't delete a file in Windows? Here's what to do...

How to delete a file when:

* Windows says 'file access denied'.
* 'File in use' error.
* Can't delete a file (insert cryptic reason).
* Rebooting doesn't help delete the file.

Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows and system errors to help delete files.

Despite all its quirks, Windows does do some things for a good reason. Some files need to be locked down when they are in use, otherwise you risk damaging the file or harming the Operating System. Unfortunately Windows XP seems to be plagued by files that cannot be deleted. These are frequently simple files like videos (AVI), MP3s or other seemingly harmless files. You try to delete the file, Windows waits a few seconds before announcing that access is denied, the file is currently in use and cannot be deleted. However, you know it's not in use and you just want it deleted.

If you have encountered this problem, here is a step-by-step process for trying to purge the files you can't delete. It starts with the basics for Windows XP and moves on to more involved tricks. The process will work for all recent Windows releases, but Windows XP has been causing the most the problems, so we will focus on it. Please note: we are assuming that the file is not crucial to the operation of Windows - deleting important system files can cause havoc.

1. Is the file in use? It sounds obvious but it happens. If it is being used or open, close the file and the application that opened it. For example, if it is a Word document, close Microsoft Word.
2. If the file was opened in an application (and subsequently closed), but the program is still running, try quitting the program. Windows will lock a file because the application hasn't yet released it. This is not always Windows fault and can be the fault of the program.
3. If the file is an AVI, in particular a DivX AVI, try renaming it and then deleting it. DivX files don't get on very well with Windows XP and sometimes renaming the file can trick Windows into releasing it.
4. Reboot your PC and don't start any programs. Go directly to the file and delete it.
5. In Windows Explorer, switch to View-Details and then select View-Choose Details. Uncheck everything except the file name. This stops Windows XP trying to read the file - this problem affects many video, audio and graphics files.
6. Still no luck? OK, here is the best trick of all. Most sites give you cryptic Windows registry and DOS commands to remove a file, but the answer is so much simpler. Get a copy of MoveOnBoot. It's free and this simple tool allows you to Move, Copy or Delete files before Windows can lock or alter the files. The changes are made to your hard drive before Windows starts, hence it requires a restart of your system after you give MoveOnBoot its instructions. There are no messy boot or DOS commands, just a simple 3-step process.

Step 1: Locate the name of the file that is causing your problems.

Step 2: Decide if you want to copy, move or delete the file.

Step 3. Choose a destination for moving the file, or a new file name for the rename option (this option won't appear if you are deleting a file).

Click OK to confirm you want to process. The nice thing is that the program doesn't make you reboot straight away. It's a good idea to reboot ASAP, but if you are in the middle of something and want to wait, the program will simply run next time you start Windows.

7. If the file reappears again (check its creation date to ensure it is being recreated) and you can't make it budge, you may have trouble with spyware or a virus on your system (don't overlook the possibility it may also be an important system file). In this case you should get a good spyware removal program to scan your system.

Hello Theresa,

I have recently made an interesting discovery so I thought I'd write to you today to tell you all about it. I have been studying your situation on an astrological level as you know and this particular discovery is somewhat unusal and very precious. Or rather I should say someone as this discovery concerns a certain someone who has been by your side for the past 46 years without you being very much aware of it. However this person has accompanied and protected you all the way through your life. You must be wondering just who this person could be.

Well Theresa, this person is your Guardian Angel. While you read the few lines that follow I would ask you to put aside your pre-conceptions and your doubts so that you can open your heart to accept the explanation of these Angels who envelop us all in their divine love. I have been working on your spiritualism and this has allowed me to discover who your guardian angel is and I have also found out how you can contact this being and have real proof of your Angel's existence. I can tell you now Theresa that your Angel is St. Gabriel - Special Messenger of God.

But let us begin by the beginning. The first question which we should ask is what exactly are Angels? For some people these are bright living lights, for others the essence of ancestors come to protect and shelter, some people believe Angels fly high in the sky and others still believe that these beings stay at our sides. It is difficult to respond precisely to this question but one thing is sure; Angels are out there and they give us constant reminders of their presence.

As far as I am concerned I believe that Angels live inside of us and they constantly sooth us and try to answer our most insignificant questions. I think that our Angels are to be found in the heart of our Chakra points and this is why to enter into contact with an Angel requires us to work deep within ourselves and to learn to develop our inner capacities. A lot of people have written about Angels and the general consensus seems to be that Angels are represented by bright rays of colored light which resemble the light which emanates from our Chakra points. Many people have witnessed this bright light and as a matter of fact a great number of these individuals claim to have seen bright golden lights flash in the corner of their eyes and these bright lights do not go away when they close their eyes! This is just the beginning, this is the first contact with a Guardian Angel.

Angels have access to our very souls and the essence of our being and this is how they are able to guide, inspire and protect us so well. These beings of light have a special power to light our souls and once we are able to listen to them we can absorb the valuable messages and advice which they whisper to us. Their aid is so precious to us because to is so personal and if we can call upon our Angel we benefit from their full support and counsel. This is why I want to help you to discover your particular Angel Theresa and how you can contact St. Gabriel - Special Messenger of God with all of your faith and hope.

This is why I have worked on how you may contact your Angel Theresa and I am ready to tell you how you can contact this being yourself. If you have a look at the web page link I am about to give you, you will be able to see photographs of the work I have done for you and you will also be able to discover how to contact your Angel yourself. You need only concentrate on your sensitivity, send your prayers and then listen for a response. This page will also give you some more details about Angels and how your Angel has already manifested itself in your life without you being fully aware of it. This makes for truly fascinating reading...

Here is the link:

Have a great day and speak to you soon.
Your faithful servant,
Jenna

Get your Gmail stickers

Thursday, December 04, 2008 3:27 PM
Posted by Arielle Reinstein, Gmail Product Marketing Manager

Not too long ago, one of the Gmail engineers broke out her vinyl cutter and made some Gmail m-velope stickers. Pretty soon, they were pasted to our desks, stuck on our laptops, and adorning the walls around the office. Then other people started asking us about them -- first it was just other Googlers. But when a guy I was sitting next to on an airplane asked where he could get a Gmail sticker, we realized other people might like them too.


So we designed some more, and printed up a whole bunch.























There's the standard Gmail m-velope -- dressed up in glitter. One of three bookplate style stickers you can stick on anything from the inside of a favorite book to your laptop or your skateboard. (Trading with friends is encouraged -- we realize the unicorn isn't for everyone.) And there's a sheet of keyboard shortcut stickers intended as a tool to help people learn Gmail's shortcuts. The adhesive is a bit more removable than standard stickiness, so you can take them off once you've trained your fingers.



So how do you get your stickers? We may be all about speedy electronic communication, but this time we're going old school with snail mail. Just send a self-addressed stamped envelope (along with a note if you're so inclined) to:

Send me some Gmail stickers already
P.O. Box 391420
Mountain View, CA 94039-1420

Make sure to include enough postage to return a sticker pack via U.S. mail. It's less than one ounce, so a standard $0.42 stamp will do if you're in the United States; enclose an international reply coupon (IRC) if you're outside of the U.S. And be sure to send your envelope in soon -- one per person please.

*Our lawyers asked us to make sure it was clear that your contact information won't be maintained in any way and these stickers are "void where prohibited and only while supplies last."

Little Johnny's at it again.....

A new teacher was trying to make use of her psychology courses.
She started her class by saying, "Everyone who thinks they're stupid, stand up!"
After a few seconds, Little Johnny stood up.
The teacher said, "Do you think you're stupid, Little Johnny?"
"No, ma'am, but I hate to see you standing there all by yourself!"

Little Johnny watched, fascinated, as his mother smoothed cold cream on her face.
"Why do you do that, mommy?" he asked.
"To make myself beautiful," said his mother, who then began removing the cream with a tissue. "What's the matter?" asked Little Johnny. "Giving up?"

The math teacher saw that little Johnny wasn't paying attention in class.
She called on him and said, "Johnny! What are 2 and 4 and 28 and 44?"
Little Johnny quickly replied, "NBC, FOX, ESPN and the Cartoon Network!"

Little Johnny's kindergarten class was on a field trip to their local police station where they saw pictures tacked to a bulletin board of the 10 most wanted criminals.
One of the youngsters pointed to a picture and asked if it really was the photo of a wanted person.
"Yes," said the policeman. "The detectives want very badly to capture him."
Little Johnny asked, "Why didn't you keep him when you took his picture ?"

Little Johnny attended a horse auction with his father.
He watched as his father moved from horse to horse, running his hands up and down the horse's legs and rump, and chest.
After a few minutes, Johnny asked, "Dad, why are you doing that?"
His father replied, "Because when I'm buying horses, I have to make sure that they are healthy and in good shape before I buy.
Johnny, looking worried, said, "Dad, I think the UPS guy wants to buy Mom .

" If this brightened your day, don't let it stop here.
Pass it on with a smile.
Keep spreading the cheer!
Pass on to your friends!
They like Johnny too ya know!

9 Words Women Use

1. Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

2. Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

3. Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine.

4. Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!

5. Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)

6. That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

7. Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say you're welcome.

8. Whatever: Is a women's way of saying F@!K YOU!

9. Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking "What's wrong?" For the woman's response refer to #3.
