Shocked to know... AIDS spreads like this also..
This happened in INDIA - Karnataka - Bangalore
A 10 year old boy, had eaten pineapple about 15 days back, and fell
sick, from the day he had eaten. Later when he had his Health check
done...
doctors diagnosed that he had AIDS.
His parents couldn't believe it...Then the entire family under went a
checkup... none of them suffered from Aids. So the doctors checked again
with the boy if he had eaten out...The boy said "yes". He had pineapple
that evening. Immediately a group from the hospital went to the
pineapple vendor to check.
They found the pineapple seller had a cut on his finger while cutting
the pineapple; his blood had spread into the fruit.
When they had his blood checked...the guy was suffering from AIDS...but
he himself was NOT aware. Unfortunately the boy is suffering from it
now.
Please take care while u eat on the road side and pls fwd this mail to your dear one's.
PEOPLE PLEASE TAKE CARE

Bang Your Head
Forwarded by Aditya
Bang ur head on the wall if u dont know the answer.
Recently a company had participated in IIM's Placement Sessions.
They asked some interesting questions to students during recruitment.
1. There is one word in the English language that is always pronounced incorrectly. What is it?
********
2. A man gave one son 10 cents and another son was given 15 cents. What time is it?
********
3. A boat has a ladder that has six rungs, each rung is one foot apart. The bottom rung is one foot from the water.
The tide rises at 12 inches every 15minutes. High tide peaks in one hour. When the tide is at it's highest, how many rungs are under water?
********
4. There is a house with four walls. Each wall faces south. There is a window in each wall. A bear walks by one of the windows. What color is the bear?
********
5. Is half of two plus two equal to two or three?
********
6. There is a room. The shutters are blowing in. There is broken glass on the floor. There is water on the floor. You find Sloppy dead on the floor. Who is Sloppy? How did Sloppy die?
********
7. How much dirt would be in a hole 6 feet deep and 6 feet wide that has been dug with a square edged shovel?
********
8. If I were in Hawaii and dropped a bowling ball in a bucket of water which is 45 degrees F, and dropped another ball of the same weight, mass, and size in a bucket at 30 degrees F, both of them at the same time, which ball would hit the bottom of the bucket first?
Same question, but the location is in Canada ?
********
9. What is the significance of the following: The year is 1978, thirty-four minutes past noon on May 6th.
********
10. If a farmer has 5 haystacks in one field and 4 haystacks in the other field, how many haystacks would he have if he combined them all in the center field?
********
11. What is it that goes up and goes down but does not move?
********
for answers..... .......
********
1. The word "incorrectly. "
********
2. 1:45. The man gave away a total of 25 cents. He divided it between two people. Therefore, he gave a quarter to two.
********
3. None, the boat rises with the tide. Googly ;-)
********
4. White. If all the walls face south, the house is at the North pole, and the bear, therefore, is a polar bear.
********
5. Three. Well, it seems that it could almost be either, but if you follow the mathematical orders of operation, division is performed before addition.
So... half of two is one. Then add two, and the answer is three.
********
6. Sloppy is a (gold)fish. The wind blew the shutters in, which knocked his goldfish-bowl off the table, and it broke, killing him.
********
7. None. No matter how big a hole is, it's still a hole: the absence of dirt.
********
8. Both questions, same answer: the ball in the bucket of 45 degree F water hits the bottom of the bucket last. Did you think that the water in the 30 degree F bucket is frozen? Think again.
The question said nothing about that bucket having anything in it. Therefore, there is no water (or ice) to slow the ball down...
********
9. The time and month/date/year American style calendar are 12:34, 5/6/78.
********
10. One. If he combines all of his haystacks, they all become one big stack.
********
11. The temperature.
********
The Wall With Three Faces
Forwarded by Mohan
Here is a short story that may strike one as simple but is, on the other hand, fraught with meaning. A philosopher was walking down a street when he saw a man busy at work. "What are you doing?' he asked. 'Can't you see? I am putting one brick over another!', answered the person. The philosopher walked on until he came to another man doing the same thing. 'What are you doing?' he asked him. Without turning around, the man answered him, 'I am building a wall.' The philosopher continued on his walk.
Soon he came upon yet another man doing the same work and he asked him the same question. This time the worker looked at him, smiled and said, 'I am building a hospital where the sick can be cured.' The philosopher returned his smile. Continuing his walk, he mused, 'Three men doing the same work but one is a pessimist, another is a realist and the third an idealist.' The pessimist of course was the first man, placing one brick on top of another mechanically. He paid little attention to his work and derived no enjoyment from what he was doing. Obviously he was learning nothing from it either. His intention was to do the least work for the most money he could get. He would as soon break bricks as put them together and was nothing more than a human machine.
The second man who was building a wall was putting more of himself into his task. He would probably work towards building the best wall that he could. He had a goal in mind and was working towards it sincerely. He would gather experience as he went along and the future would see him build stronger walls and also houses in which people would live in comfort. He was engaged in a promising livelihood which would enable him to look after his family. The third man was all this and more. He possessed vision and nurtured a dream in his mind. His interest went beyond the family and embraced his neighbors, friends and strangers. Work represented to him more than just earning a living. He was willing not only to discharge his duties but shoulder responsibilities as well.
Do you wonder into which category you would fall? There will be times when we feel like the pessimist, that life has scant meaning and it matters little what we do. Most of the times, we are realists leading ordinary but useful lives. It is given only to a few to be idealists all the time. They are the Mahatmas, the great thinkers. We can be realists taking life in our stride, doing our best at the same time to emulate the idealists. The most important thing to keep in mind about motivation is that we cannot motivate others. Motivation comes from within - people motivate themselves. The only thing a supervisor, a manager, or anybody else can do is to create the conditions for people towards motivation themselves

Success does not happen in Isolation

There was a farmer who grew superior quality and award-winning corn. Each
year he entered his corn in the state fair where it won honor and prizes.
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learnt something
interesting about how he grew it.
The reporter discovered that the farmer shared his seed corn with his
neighbors'.
"How can you afford to share your best seed corn with your neighbors when
they are entering corn in competition with yours each year?" the reporter
asked.
"Why sir, "said the farmer, "didn't you know? The wind picks up pollen from
the ripening corn and swirls it from field to field. If my neighbors grow inferior,
sub-standard and poor quality corn, cross-pollination will steadily degrade the quality of my corn.
If I am to grow good corn, I must help my neighbors grow good corn."
The farmer gave a superb insight into the connectedness of life. His corn
cannot improve unless his neighbor's corn also improves.
So it is in the other dimensions! Those who choose to be at harmony must
help their neighbors and colleagues to be at peace. Those who choose to
live well must help others to live well.
The value of a life is measured by the lives it touches.
SUCCESS DOES NOT HAPPEN IN ISOLATION. IT IS VERY OFTEN A PARTICIPATIVE AND COLLECTIVE PROCESS.
So share the good practices, ideas, new learning's with your family, friends, team members, neighbors... ....
Laugh a little...

Just stand beside his friend howling and crying.
