Search for special mehndi designs is all time high as Karva Chauth Vrata is on Wednesday and married women are preparing for it. The women observe the fast for safety of their husbands on this occasion.
The women, after observing daylong fast, wore make up with extra care to give additional beauty to their look and offer prayers. They put on traditional attire and use special karva chauth mehndi design on their palms and hands.
Housewife Anamika Mishra says, “I visit a beautician and take a few tips of mehndi designs for this occasion that comes once in a year. I am extra cautious today for my attire and make up.”
Teacher Sheeli Singh, who doesn't like make up otherwise, has also sought some mehandi designs. “I like special mehandi designs for this occasion. If possible, I will consult a beauty expert for it, thereafter I will apply mehandi. This will add extra beauty to my look.,” says Sheeli.
Karwa Chauth is a traditional Hindu Festival of married women, and is celebrated in India and some parts of Pakistan.
Married women fast whole day without food or water for the long life of their husbands. The ritual signifies extreme love and devotion to the husband, as evidenced by the wife’s willingness to suffer for his well being.
Karwa Chauth Vrat Katha in English:
Longtime ago, there lived a family having 7 brothers and one sister. Sister’s name was veeravati.
After her marriage, on occasion of her first Karva Chauth, she came to her parents place, and decided to strictly observe the Karva Chauth fast, observing fast from sunrise till the time moon rises.
invention of barcode: Google celebrates the Bar Code invention with a new Logo
Doodles are Google’s unique way to show its respect for great people, inventions and events. It is the best way to aware the netizens about any issue. On 2nd October, Google replaced its default logo by another special image featuring Mahatma Gandhi. I don’t know why it is only Google! Have you seen another such experiment on other websites? On any Indian websites? In.com, Rediff or any government website? NO, right?
This is why Google is a great institution and not just an online venture.
Know More About BARCODE:
What is bar code? It is method of automatic identification and data collection. The first patent for a bar code type product (US Patent #2,612,994) was issued to inventors Joseph Woodland and Bernard Silver on October 7, 1952. The Woodland and Silver bar code can be described as a "bull's eye" symbol, made up of a series of concentric circles. http://worldstrend.blogspot.com/
Examine the 1958 patent drawing to the left that depicts the Woodland's and Silver's bar code label and the 1958 patent drawing below right of the inventors' bar code scanner technology. The photo below left is an example of today's U.P.C. bar code on a product package.
In 1948, Bernard Silver was a graduate student at Drexel Institute of Technology in Philadelphia. A local food chain store owner had made an inquiry to the Drexel Institute asking about research into a method of automatically reading product information during checkout. Bernard Silver joined together with fellow graduate student Norman Joseph Woodland to work on a solution.
Woodland's first idea was to use ultraviolet light sensitive ink. The team built a working prototype but decided that the system was too unstable and expensive. They went back to the drawing board. http://worldstrend.blogspot.com/
On October 20, 1949, Woodland and Silver filed their patent application for the "Classifying Apparatus and Method", describing their invention as "article classification...through the medium of identifying patterns".
Bar code was first used commercially in 1966, however, it was soon realized that there would have to be some sort of industry standard set. By 1970, the Universal Grocery Products Identification Code or UGPIC was written by a company called Logicon Inc. The first company to produce bar code equipment for retail trade use (using UGPIC) was the American company Monarch Marking in 1970, and for industrial use, the British company Plessey Telecommunications was also first in 1970. UGPIC evolved into the U.P.C. symbol set or Universal Product Code, which is still used in the United States. George J. Laurer is considered the inventor of U.P.C. or Uniform Product Code, which was invented in 1973. http://worldstrend.blogspot.com/
In June of 1974, the first U.P.C. scanner was installed at a Marsh's supermarket in Troy, Ohio. The first product to have a bar code included was a packet of Wrigley'sGum.
Bar Code History
Beginning with 1932, when an ambitious project was conducted by a small group of students headed by Wallace Flint at the Harvard University Graduate School of Business Administration. The project proposed that customers select desired merchandise from a catalog by removing corresponding punched cards from the catalog. http://worldstrend.blogspot.com/
Development of the U.P.C. Symbol History
About 1970, McKinsey & Co. (a consulting firm) in conjunction with UGPCC (Uniform Grocery Product Code Council, a corporation formed by the grocery industries leading trade associations) defined a numeric format for product identification.

A man who passed away while praying in Masjid-e-Nabvi
Here is a man who past away while in Sajda in Masjid ul Nabawi ( Saudi Arabia )
Prayer is the key to Paradise, there is no excuse to miss it
Picture of a worshipper in Masjid An Nabawi who passed away while in Sajda during Prayer – Allah O’ Akbar - What a beautiful end!!! If a praying person knew to what extent he was
surrounded by Allah’s Mercy, he would never raise his head from Prostration/
Please keep forwarding this ‘Hadith’ to all … Because the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) said:
‘Pass on knowledge from me even if it is only one’

Do you thieve? Who can stand guarantee for you?” How can you get work like this? Now tell me, what will one do to fill one’s stomach?’ - Seventeen-year-old Hashim sleeps among the multitudes of homeless people in the open ground near Jama Masjid, in the medieval walled city of Delhi.

I could smell Buddham Bai before I could see her. She was covered with layers of clothes once white, laced with the acrid odour of incontinence, of old age. Pink nail polish flashing against the dark, wrinkled hands, her grizzled hair was put in a careless bun. Her child-like smile, at the age of 65, was the only thing that didn't look weathered by life's grueling tests. [read more]
