Four Things You Probably Didn't Know Your Mobile Phone Could Do

Four Things You Probably Didn't Know Your Mobile Phone Could Do.

There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies.

Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out the things that you can do with it:

First - The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112. If you find yourself Out of the coverage area of your mobile; network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked. Try it out.

Second - Have you locked your keys in the car? Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a mobile phone: If you lock your keys in the car And the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their mobile phone from your cell phone. Hold your mobile phone about a foot from your car door and have the Person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other 'remote' for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk). Editor's Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car Over a mobile phone!'

Third - Hidden Battery Power - Imagine your mobile battery is very low. To activate, press the keys *3370# Your mobile will restart with this reserve and the instrument Will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your mobile next time.

Fourth - How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone. - To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 # A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. If your phone gets stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell It either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.

"HELPING HANDS ARE BETTER THAN PRAYING LIPS"

A Small Tribute to Sir Sam Manekshaw

I would Like to thank a very good and beautiful friend of mine for helping me to draft a few words about Sir Sam ManekShaw - The Legend...

I will start this blog with a confession. I had no clue about this great man until I had Googled some information and decided to write a tribute in his honor. If I haven't thought of doing so, I would've probably lived my life without ever knowing anything about this wonderful human being. And so my interest was stimulated at the mention of the 1971 Indo-Pak war.


This human being, Sam Manekshaw apparently held the highest rank of “Field Marshall” in Indian Army. He was engaged in active combat World War-2 and severely injured during the war. For me it is just one comment easily made……...for active combat soldier it is life and death. In reality life on the battlefield for a soldier is with full of unanticipated dangers, challenges, limited food and water, without family, and of course surrounded by sounds of firing discharge, detonation etc. I can only imagine as to how it feels like to be away from the loved ones and keep praying that you would get to meet them again, before you ever get hit by one of those bullets that whiz past you. I can not even imagine how it feels like to be a family member of such brave, courageous, front liners!


Of course, I've seen enough war movies and had my fair share of crying when the valiant soldier dies a heroic death. However I'm equally ashamed to admit that I have done nothing to contribute. I have thought of those unknown heroic faces probably just for a second and moved on with my life; leaving a question within- is that enough?


Because of such heart-breaking insight, I read on more about this great man. World War-2, Partition of India, Jammu Kashmir issues in 1948…....you name it, he was present in it all. I began to acquire information on him and was really impressed with what I found! Sir Manekshaw became the 8th chief of staff in 1969, then there was the great Indo-Pak war. As I write this blog, I am utterly embarrassed to know that there have been many unsung, unknown heroes in our country, and it unfortunately takes their death to arouse our curiosity and makes us think about them.


Does it make you think, or take a hard look at your own life and introspect? Here I'm, whining about my day-to-day problems, talking about hatred and anger, yet I am safe and alive with my loved ones. This simply makes me wonder if I can't take the pressures of my blissfully everyday life, what I would have done if I or a loved one had to fight in a war!


We keep talking about how war is bad and how the poor soldiers out there are risking their lives for OUR safety. Sadly questioning, how many of us will take a moment to be thankful or even pay attention out of our busy daily lives? It is one thing to want a world-peace, and quite another to carry out such. Hey, if we can't make peace in our social circle, life, how are we ever going to achieve a world-peace?


With that said we all can agree on one thing is that until each and every one of us can find peace within ourselves, wars will continue to exist. And while the wars exist, I am humbly appreciative of the brave soldiers like Sam Manekshaw and zillion others out there on the front line doing their duties by risking their precious lives for us, with their tremendous above and beyond abilities.


What I plan to do is to send a prayer to every single soldier out there ……. Indian or otherwise, for those who has fallen……………..my hats off to you………………..may you find some comfort……..……...peace…..………….


As for Sir Manekshaw, he did his job to the best of his abilities, and I pray for such a highly respected man………….


A great salute to a Great Personality. May God be with him…………………

Indian Hell

A man dies and goes to hell.



There he finds that there is a different hell for each country.



He goes to the German hell and asks, "What do they do here?"



He told, "First they put you in an electric chair for An hour. Then they lay you on a bed of nails for another hour. Then The German devil comes in and whips you for the rest of the day."

The man does not like the sound of that at all,so he moves on.

He checks out the USA hell as well as the Russian hell and many more.



He discovers that they are all more or less the same as the German hell.

Then he comes to the Indian hell and finds that there is a long line of people waiting to get in.



Amazed, he asks, "What do they do here?" He told, "First they put you in an electric chair for an hour. Then they lay you on a bed of nails for another hour. Then the Indian devil comes in and whips you for the rest of the day."



"But that is exactly the same as all the other hells - why are there so many people waiting to get in?"

"Because maintenance is so bad that the electric chair does not work,someone has stolen all the nails from the bed, and the devil is a former Govt servant, so he comes in, signs the register and then goes to the canteen!!!

That just because someone doesn't love you
the way you want them to, doesn't mean
they don't love you with all they have.

I Believe........

That either you control your attitude or it
controls you.


I Believe........

That sometimes when I'm angry i have the
right to be angry, but that doesn't give me
the right to be cruel.

by others. Sometimes you have to learn to
forgive yourself.
