BRAIN DAMAGING HABITS

BRAIN DAMAGING HABITS


1. No Breakfast
People who do not take breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level.
This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.

2. Overeating
It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power.

3. Smoking
It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.

4. High Sugar consumption
Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causingmalnutrition and may interfere with brain development.

5. Air Pollution
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.

6. Sleep Deprivation
Sleep allows our brain to rest. Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the death of brain cells.
7. Head covered while sleeping
Sleeping with the head covered, increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.

8. Working your brain during illness
Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of the brain as well as damage the brain.

9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts
Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.

10. Talking Rarely
Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The main causes of liver damage are:

1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are main cause.
2. Not urinating in the morning.
3. Too much eating.
4. Skipping breakfast.
5. Consuming too much medication.
6. Consuming too much preservatives, additives, food coloring , and artificial sweetener.
7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil. As much as possible reduce cooking oil use when frying, which includes even the best cooking oils like olive oil. Do not consume fried foods when you are tired, except if the body is very fit.
8. Consuming raw (overly done) foods also add to the burden of liver.
Veggies should be eaten raw or cooked 3-5 parts. Fried veggies should be finished in one sitting, do not store.

We should prevent this without necessarily spending more. We just have to adopt a good daily lifestyle and eating habits. Maintaining good eating habits and time condition are very important for our bodies to absorb and get rid of unnecessary chemicals according to "schedule."


Because :

Evening at 9 - 11 PM : is the time for eliminating unnecessary/toxic chemicals (detoxification) from the antibody system (lymph nodes). This time duration should be spent by relaxing or listening to music. If during this time a housewife is still in an unrelaxed state such as washing the dishes or monitoring children doing their homework, this will have a negative impact on health.

Evening at 11pm - 1 am : is the detoxification process in the liver, and ideally should be done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 1 - 3 am : detoxification process in the gall, also ideally done in a deep sleep state.
Early morning 3 - 5 am : detoxification in the lungs. Therefore there will sometimes be a severe cough for cough sufferers during this time. Since the detoxification process had reached the respiratory tract, there is no need to take cough medicine so as not to interfere with toxin removal process.
Morning 5 - 7am : detoxification in the colon, you should empty your bowel.

Morning 7 - 9 am : absorption of nutrients in the small intestine, you should be having breakfast at this time. Breakfast should be earlier, before 6:30 am , for those who are sick. Breakfast before 7:30 am is very beneficial to those wanting to stay fit. Those who always skip breakfast, they should change their habits, and it is still better to eat breakfast late until 9 - 10 am rather than no meal at all.

Sleeping so late and waking up too late will disrupt the process of removing unnecessary chemicals. Aside from that, midnight to 4:00 am is the time when the bone marrow produces blood. Therefore, have a good sleep and don't sleep late.


DO TAKE CARE ABOUT YOUR HEALTH.................
AND PASS THIS TO ALL WHOM YOU LOVE & CARE FOR ......................

a story about positive attitude

Dear All I came across a lovely story which I felt I should share with each one of you. It is about positive attitude towards life and everything in it. I am sure, you all agree with me, when I say that 'Life is all about choices'. Make the right choice so that you have to smile on your lips when you wake up, and a smile on when you go to bed, day in and day out.
Here's the story- I trust you'll all enjoy reading it! __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Raju is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, "If I were any better, I would be twins!" He was a natural motivator. If an employee was having a bad day, Raju was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up and asked him, "I don't get it! You can't be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?" He replied, "Each morning I wake up and say to myself, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or ... you can choose to be in a bad mood. I choose to be in a good mood." Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or...I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining or... I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life. "Yeah, right, it's not that easy," I protested. "Yes, it is," he said. "Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood. The bottom line: It's your choice how you live your life."I reflected on what he said. Soon hereafter, I left the Industry to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it.
Several years later, I heard that he was involved in a serious accident, falling some 60 feet from a communications tower. After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care, he was released from the hospital with rods placed in his back.I saw him about six months after the accident. When I asked him how he was, he replied, "If I were any better, I'd be twins...Wanna see my scars?" I declined to see his wounds, but I did ask him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place. "The first thing that went through my mind was the well-being of my soon-to-be born daughter," he replied. "Then, as I lay on the ground, I remembered that I had two choices: I could choose to live or...I could choose to die. I chose to live." "Weren't you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I asked. He continued, "the paramedics were great." They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the ER and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, I read 'he's a dead man'. I knew I needed to take action.""What did you do?" I asked. "Well, there was a big burly nurse shouting questions at me," said John. "She asked if I was allergic to anything. 'Yes, I replied.' The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled, 'Gravity'. Over their laughter, I told them, "I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead." He lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude... I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully.Attitude, after all, is everything. "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."After all today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.You have two choices now:1. Learn to Live Life- enjoy every minute of it2. Continue to lead life the way it is- cribbing, complaining, and filled with negativityYou know the choice that helps!

Dont copy if con't paste properly

Story of the Day: Don’t Copy If You Cant Paste Properly
At training program for top management. A well-known motivational speaker gathering the entire crowd's attention, said, "The best years of my life were spent in the arms of a woman who wasn't my wife !"
The crowd was shocked! He followed up by saying, "That woman was my mother!" The crowd burst into laughter and he gave his speech, which was well received. About a week later, one of the top managers who had the training decided to use that joke at his house. He tried to rehearse the joke in his head. It was a bit foggy to him.
He said loudly, "The greatest years of my life were spent in the arms of a woman who was not my wife!" Naturally, his wife was shell shocked, murmuring. After standing there for almost 10 seconds trying to recall the second half of the joke, the manager finally blurted out "... and I can't remember who she was !"
As expected, he got thrashing of his life time.... Moral of the story: Don't copy if you can't paste properly Have a nice weekend....

Rohit wakes up at home with a huge hangover. He forces himself to open his eyes,
and the first thing he sees is a couple of aspirins and a glass of water on the side table. He sits down and sees his clothing in front of him, all clean and pressed. Rohit looks around the room and sees that it is in perfect order, spotless, clean. So is the rest of the house. He takes the aspirins and notices a note on the table. "Honey, breakfast is on the stove, I left early to go shopping. Love You!" So he goes to the kitchen and sure enough there is a hot breakfast and the morning newspaper. His son is also at the table, eating. Rohit asks, "Son, what happened last night?" His son says, "Well, you came home around 3 AM, drunk and delirious. Broke some furniture, puked in the hallway, and gave yourself a black eye when you stumbled into the door". Confused, Rohit asks, "So, why is everything in order and so clean, and breakfast is on the table waiting for me? I should expect a big quarrel with her!" His son replies, "Oh, that! Mom dragged you to the bedroom, and when she tried to take your clothes n shoes off, you said, "Lady leave me alone! I'm married!"

Moral
Self-induced hangover -- Rs. 2000.00
Broken furniture -- Rs. 20,000.00
Breakfast -- Rs. 100.00
Saying The Right Thing While Drunk - PRICELESS.

Poem from the heart of wife of software engineer....

Even moon has come,
But you haven't

No chance to take lunch With you In this life,
Please don't add dinner In that list.

Fortunately after wedding We had one week fun,
Otherwise We could not have son.

Son has finished counting Stars in the sky,
But you haven't come.
I told, "Father may come in your dream Just sleep and try".

Father for family, Sun for world.
If first absent, Dark is present.

"Dear son....... Tell your father
Money is for life Not life is for money"

Oh! People, Go everywhere,
Without Software.

Have u ever seen the calendar for September 1752??? If you are working in Unix, try this out. At $ prompt, type: cal 9 1752
Surprised??? ?not only in unix, u can also search it in google
See the explanation for what you see. Isn't the output queer? A month with whole of eleven days missing. This was the time England shifted from Roman Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar, and the king of England ordered those 11 days to be wiped off the face of the month of September of 1752. (What couldn't a King do in those days?!) And yes, the workers worked for 11 days less, but got paid for the entire 30 days. And that's how "Paid Leave" was born.Hail the King!!!

  11. What if the class is Serializable?

    No transactional Orchestration or Atomic scope is needed.


  12. What does the Value Mapping Functoid do?

    Returns the second parameter if the first parameter is true


  13. What is the difference between a Distinguished field and a Promoted Property?

    • Distinguished fields are light weight and can only be used inside an
      Orchestration.

    • Promoted Properties are defined inside a property schema, are tracking in SQL,
      can be tracked in HAT, and can be used for content based routing.

  14. How do you achieve First-In-First-Out message processing of messages received
    from multiple sources using an Orchestration?


    • Use a Sequential Convoy to process the messages in the order they are received
      into the Message Box.

    • Make sure Ordered Delivery is set to True inside the Orchestration Receive
      Port.

  15. At high level, what do Receive Ports and Orchestration Send Port really do in terms of messaging? What about Send Ports and Orchestration Receive Ports?

    • Receive Ports and Orchestration Send Port are both publishers.

    • Ports and Orchestration Receive Ports are both subscribers.

  16. When working with Schemas, Maps, Pipelines, and Orchestrations how should the projects be structured?

    • Schemas and Maps in its own project.

    • Or Schemas and Maps together in its own project.

    • Orchestrations in its own project.

    • Pipelines in it own project.

  17. What is direct binding?

    • Direct binding has three types: direct to message box, self correlating, and
      partner ports.

    • Used to route message between the message box and Orchestrations without using
      bindings or from one Orchestration to another Orchestration.

  18. What is BAM used for?

    BAM is used to monitor business milestones and key metrics in near real-time
    throughout a process in BizTalk.

  19. What is the Rules Engine?

  20. Rules are used to provide highly efficient, easily changeable business rules
    evaluation to Business Processes. This allows rules to be changed without
    rebuilding and redeploying .net assemblies. The Business Rules Engine (BRE) can
    also be called from any .net component through the API’s


  21. What are Persistence Points and what causes them?

    • Persistence is when the state of a running Orchestration is stored into SQL.

    • It is good enough to know various shape and actions cause persistence. More
      specifically, it occurs: end of a transactional scope, at a send shape, at a
      start Orchestration shape, during dehydration, if the system shuts down
      expectedly or unexpectedly, or the business process suspends or ends.

  22. What group does a user need to belong to in order to submit messages to the
    message box?

    The user needs to be a member of the hot group or isolated host group (assuming
    a default installation).

  23. What user rights to you need to perform most actions in HAT?
    BizTalk Server Administrator
    When installing Biztalk in a multi-server configuration with a remote SQL and Analysis Services

  24. What are BizTalk artifacts?

  25. What is Promoted Property?

  26. What is Distinguished Field?

  27. What is the difference between Promoted Property and Distinguished Field?
    How do you debug Orchestrations?

  28. What is HAT?

  29. What is Functoid?

  30. How do you develop a Custom Functoid? Which interface to use?

  31. Why the ROOT Name and namespace combination in a schema has to be unique?
  32. What is Correlation?

  33. What are the transaction types available in an orchestration scope?

  34. What is Compensation?

  35. How do you catch exceptions inside the orchestration?

  36. How do you publish an orchestration as web service?

  37. What is Receive Location and Receive Port?

  38. What are the adapters available with BizTalk 2004?

  39. How do you set up MSMQ and MSMQT in the same machine?

  40. What are the components available in an orchestration tool box?

  41. What is the difference between Call Orchestration and Start Orchestration shapes?

Convertng rows to coloumns in sql server 2005

You can use the PIVOT and UNPIVOT relational operators to manipulate a table-valued expression into another table. PIVOT rotates a table-valued expression by turning the unique values from one column in the expression into multiple columns in the output, and performs aggregations where necessary on any remaining column values that are desired in the final output. UNPIVOT performs the opposite operation to PIVOT by rotating columns of a table-valued expression into column values.
Note:
When using PIVOT and UNPIVOT against databases that are upgraded to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, the database's compatibility level must be set to 90. To set the database compatibility level, see sp_dbcmptlevel (Transact-SQL).
PIVOT provides syntax that is simpler and more readable than what may otherwise be specified in a complex series of SELECT...CASE statements.
A common scenario where PIVOT can be useful is when you want to generate cross-tabulation reports to summarize data. For example, suppose you want to query the PurchaseOrderHeader table in the AdventureWorks sample database to determine the number of purchase orders placed by certain employees. The following query provides this report, broken down by vendor:
Copy Code
USE AdventureWorks;
GO
SELECT VendorID, [164] AS Emp1, [198] AS Emp2, [223] AS Emp3, [231] AS Emp4, [233] AS Emp5
FROM
(SELECT PurchaseOrderID, EmployeeID, VendorID
FROM Purchasing.PurchaseOrderHeader) p
PIVOT
(
COUNT (PurchaseOrderID)
FOR EmployeeID IN
( [164], [198], [223], [231], [233] )
) AS pvt
ORDER BY VendorID
Here is a partial result set:
Copy Code
VendorID Emp1 Emp2 Emp3 Emp4 Emp5
1 4 3 5 4 4
2 4 1 5 5 5
3 4 3 5 4 4
4 4 2 5 5 4
5 5 1 5 5 5
The results returned by this subselect statement are pivoted on the EmployeeID column.
Copy Code
SELECT PurchaseOrderID, EmployeeID, VendorID
FROM PurchaseOrderHeader
This means that the unique values returned by the EmployeeID column themselves become fields in the final result set. As a result, there is a column for each EmployeeID number specified in the pivot clause — in this case employees 164, 198, 223, 231, and 233. The PurchaseOrderID column serves as the value column, against which the columns returned in the final output, called the grouping columns, are grouped. In this case, the grouping columns are aggregated by the COUNT function. Note that a warning message appears indicating that any NULL values appearing in the PurchaseOrderID column were not considered when computing the COUNT for each employee.
Important:
When using aggregate functions with PIVOT, the presence of any NULL values in the value column are not considered when computing an aggregation.
UNPIVOT performs almost the reverse operation of PIVOT, by rotating columns into rows. Suppose the table produced in the example above is stored in the database as pvt, and you want to rotate the column identifiers Emp1, Emp2, Emp3, Emp4, and Emp5 into row values that correspond to a particular vendor. This means that you must identify two additional columns. The column that will contain the column values you are rotating (Emp1, Emp2,...) will be called Employee, and the column that will hold the values that currently reside under the columns being rotated will be called Orders. These columns correspond to the pivot_column and value_column, respectively, in the Transact-SQL definition. The query looks like this.
Copy Code
--Create the table and insert values as portrayed in the above example.
CREATE TABLE pvt (VendorID int, Emp1 int, Emp2 int,
Emp3 int, Emp4 int, Emp5 int)
GO
INSERT INTO pvt VALUES (1,4,3,5,4,4)
INSERT INTO pvt VALUES (2,4,1,5,5,5)
INSERT INTO pvt VALUES (3,4,3,5,4,4)
INSERT INTO pvt VALUES (4,4,2,5,5,4)
INSERT INTO pvt VALUES (5,5,1,5,5,5)
GO
--Unpivot the table.
SELECT VendorID, Employee, Orders
FROM
(SELECT VendorID, Emp1, Emp2, Emp3, Emp4, Emp5
FROM pvt) p
UNPIVOT
(Orders FOR Employee IN
(Emp1, Emp2, Emp3, Emp4, Emp5)
)AS unpvt
GO
Here is a partial result set:
Copy Code
VendorID Employee Orders
1 Emp1 4
1 Emp2 3
1 Emp3 5
1 Emp4 4
1 Emp5 4
2 Emp1 4
2 Emp2 1
2 Emp3 5
2 Emp4 5
2 Emp5 5
...
Note that UNPIVOT is not the exact reverse of PIVOT. PIVOT performs an aggregation and hence merges possible multiple rows into a single row in the output. UNPIVOT does not reproduce the original table-valued expression result because rows have been merged. Besides, NULL values in the input of UNPIVOT disappear in the output, whereas there may have been original NULL values in the input before the PIVOT operation.

View Sales.vSalesPersonSalesByFiscalYears in the AdventureWorks sample database uses PIVOT to return the total sales for each salesperson, for each fiscal year. To script the view, locate it under the Views folder for the AdventureWorks database in the SQL Server Management Studio Object Explorer. Right click on the view name and select Script View as.

Reading and writting from TiniFile (to persists the data)

TIniFile is a low-level wrapper for the 16-bit Windows 3.x INI file system that enables storage and retrieval of application-specific information and settings in an application-specific INI file.

Unit
inifiles

Description
TIniFile enables handling the storage and retrieval of application-specific information and settings in a Windows 3.x INI file. The INI file text format is the standard way for Windows 3.x applications to store and retrieve application settings from session to session. An INI file stores information in logical groupings, called “sections.” For example, the WIN.INI file contains a section called “[Desktop]”. Within each section, actual data values are stored in named keys. Keys take the form:

[keynamegt]=[value]

The FileName passed to a TIniFile object when it is created is the name of the INI file the object accesses.

Note: Under 32-bit Windows systems, applications typically replace INI files with the system registry where all applications store and retrieve their settings. Delphi provides additional classes for handling the system registry. TRegistry encapsulates the system registry. TRegistryIniFile also encapsulates the registry, but shares a common ancestor with TIniFile so that the same code can access entries stored in either format.

Ex:

This example reads strings in the DELPHI32.INI file and displays them on the form.Before you run this example, you must add the IniFiles unit to the uses clause of your unit.

procedure TForm1.FormActivate(Sender: TObject);
var DelphiIni: TIniFile;

begin

Canvas.TextOut(20, 10, 'VARIOUS DELPHI SETTINGS');

DelphiIni := TIniFile.Create('Delphi32.Ini');

with DelphiIni do begin

with Canvas do

begin

TextOut(10, 50, 'Editor Font = ' + ReadString('Editor', 'FontName', 'ERROR')); TextOut(10, 70, 'Search Path = ' + ReadString('Library', 'SearchPath', 'ERROR')); TextOut(10, 90, 'Component Library = ' +
ReadString('Library', 'ComponentLibrary', 'ERROR')); TextOut(10, 110, 'VBX Directory = ' + ReadString('VBX', 'VBXDir', 'ERROR'));

TextOut(10, 130, 'VBX Unit Directory = ' + ReadString('VBX', 'UnitDir', 'ERROR')); end;

end;

DelphiIni.Free;

end;

Ex2:

This example reads the Transfer section of the DELPHI32.INI file into a memo and changes one of the strings in the INI file when Button1 is clicked. When Button2 is clicked, the DELPHI32.INI file is restored to its initial state, using the values stored in the memo.Before you run this example, you must add the IniFiles unit to the uses clause of your unit.
Warning: Do not click button2 before you have clicked button1!

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var DelphiIni: TIniFile;

begin DelphiIni := TIniFile.Create('c:\windows\delphi32.ini');

Memo1.Clear;

DelphiIni.ReadSectionValues('Transfer', Memo1.Lines);

if Memo1.Lines.Values['Title1'] <> 'Picture Painter' then

DelphiIni.WriteString('Transfer', 'Title1', 'Picture Painter');

DelphiIni.Free;

end;


procedure TForm1.Button2Click(Sender: TObject);
var DelphiIni: TIniFile;

begin
DelphiIni := TIniFile.Create('c:\windows\delphi32.ini');
{ if the entry wasn’t there before, delete it now }

if Memo1.Lines.Values['Title1'] = '' then

DelphiIni.DeleteKey('Transfer', 'Title1') { otherwise, restore the old value }

else

DelphiIni.WriteString('Transfer', 'Title1', Memo1.Lines.Values['Title1']);

DelphiIni.Free;

end;

Delphi


Language Overview


Delphi is a high-level, compiled, strongly typed language that supports structured and object-oriented design.

Based on Object Pascal, its benefits include easy-to-read code, quick compilation, and the use of multiple unit files formodular programming.
Delphi has special features that support Borland's component framework and RADenvironment. For the most part, descriptions and examples in this language guide assume that you are using Borlanddevelopment tools.

Most developers using Borland software development tools write and compile their code in the integrateddevelopment environment (IDE). Borland development tools handle many details of setting up projects and sourcefiles, such as maintenance of dependency information among units. The product also places constraints on programorganization that are not, strictly speaking, part of the Object Pascal language specification. For example, Borlanddevelopment tools enforce certain file- and program-naming conventions that you can avoid if you write yourprograms outside of the IDE and compile them from the command prompt.

This language guide generally assumes that you are working in the IDE and that you are building applications thatuse the Borland Visual Component Library (VCL). Occasionally, however, Delphi-specific rules are distinguishedfrom rules that apply to all Object Pascal programming. This text covers both the Win32 Delphi language compiler,and the Delphi for .NET language compiler. Platform-specific language differences and features are noted wherenecessary.This section covers the following topics:Program Organization. Covers the basic language features that allow you to partition your application into unitsand namespaces.Example Programs. Small examples of both console and GUI applications are shown, with basic instructionson running the compiler from the command-line.Program OrganizationDelphi programs are usually divided into source-code modules called units.

Most programs begin with a programheading, which specifies a name for the program. The program heading is followed by an optional uses clause, thena block of declarations and statements. The uses clause lists units that are linked into the program; these units,which can be shared by different programs, often have uses clauses of their own.The uses clause provides the compiler with information about dependencies among modules. Because thisinformation is stored in the modules themselves, most Delphi language programs do not require makefiles, headerfiles, or preprocessor "include" directives.Delphi Source FilesThe compiler expects to find

Delphi source code in files of three kinds:Unit source files (which end with the .pas extension)Project files (which end with the .dpr extension)Package source files (which end with the .dpk extension)Unit source files typically contain most of the code in an application. Each application has a single project file andseveral unit files; the project file, which corresponds to the program file in traditional Pascal, organizes the unit filesinto an application. Borland development tools automatically maintain a project file for each application.If you are compiling a program from the command line, you can put all your source code into unit (.pas) files. If youuse the IDE to build your application, it will produce a project (.dpr) file.Package source files are similar to project files, but they are used to construct special dynamically linkable librariescalled packages.
