Things A Guy Wants A Girl To Know

Here are some thoughts for the consideration to the ladies round the globe. These thoughts were sent to me by some anonymous visitor who wished to publish this on my blog. So here it is-


- We're not a bunch of barbarians as you think we all are.

- No matter what YOU say, your ex-boyfriend was a jerk as I am now.

- We like you to give us hugs and kisses sometimes too.


- Don't argue with us when we call you beautiful.We don't have the logic for this. We are avoiding somethings.


- Don't treat us like garbage - what goes around comes around.If we were then you are not a normal human.




- We know you're pretty outside, that's one of the reason's we're  going out with you.

- If you really liked us for who we are, you would let us believe
that our mustache, beard, or sideburns look cool, Dirty clothes dosen't matter much.

- We never shave our legs. So Get over it.

- NEVER ask us if you can put make up on us. It's just wrong.

- When we tell you that you're not fat, believe us.We lie in some cases only.

- We absolutely do not care about The Backstreet Boys, 'NSYNC,Justin Timberlake, or what any other guy looks like for that matter.


 -  Just cause you think you're always right, doesn't mean that you don't have to apologize when you do something wrong.

- You expect us to say and do sweet things for you, but it would be nice if you did the same every once in a while. We like to know that you love us.

- We can't always be spontaneous, so try to help us make the plans sometimes.



- Don't ask us to beat up another guy for you, cause you might
get what you wish for.You are not going to do it when we will ask u.

- Never pretend like you are going to break up with us and laugh
when we believe you because we know u can, anytime.

- If you want us to put the seat down when we're done, you should
put it up when you're done.

- Don't tell us how cute your ex-boyfriend was. That doesn't turn
us on.


- Always remember: The way to a guys heart is through his
stomach not always underneath it.

 
 - We know you're not always right, but we'll pretend like you are anyway.


This one is the Boomerang, I tell you, this guy has done lot of thinking after the vast experience.



- Yes, we think of SEX, but what else can you give to us for all those bills, phone calls, time spent, acting like a joker, entertaining you, gifts, listening, trying to be something else, spending time to plan for you etc... etc....etc....etc....list is never ending.
The emotional support never solves the problem.





Please forgive me if this post hurts you....but guys think in this manner too....it was important to publish this post.

How to: change the start button text on Windows XP




With a few modifications in the Windows Registry, you can replace the “start” text with anything you like.  So let’s get started.



Step 1: Modify explorer.exe

Yes, we are going to change Explorer, the backbone of your Windows XP, but don’t worry. Everything should be safe as long as you follow the steps closely.



As explorer is a binary file, we need a special tool to modify it. One of the best ones for this purpose is Resource Hacker.

There are of course others that will get the trick done, but we will be using RH. Install it and let’s continue.

As always before changing anything. you want to back up. So open My Computer and navigate to and look for explorer. Copy paste it to a safe location on your hard drive.
Now that you’ve backed it up, fire up Resource Hacker and find the same explorer.exe.




 When you’ve found and opened explorer in RH, navigate to
String Table -> 37 -> 1033.

The “start” value is on line 4, after the 578.

Change the text “start” to anything you want, making sure you keep the quotes.

Press the Compile Script button to make Resource Hacker put together the code.

Now click File and Save the script as explorer.exe. into C: \WINDOWS\inf or another C: \WINDOWS subfolder.


Note: make sure you choose Save AS, NOT just save!!

Step 2: changing the registry.

By now, you have a modified explorer sitting in the /inf/ subfolder, so we need to tell Windows to use that one, instead of the original one still resting untouched.

To do this, we need to make just one simple registry modification. To open up the registry, press start  -> run and type regedit.

In the registry editor window that opens, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ Windows NT\ CurrentVersion\ Winlogon and look for the registry entry “shell”. Click it.




Change the explorer.exe to inf/explorer.exe or whereever you saved the modified explorer.

You’re done!!!!!!!!!!!        All you have to do now is reboot or log out

The Excellence Keys

                                                     It is not a skill but an attitude.


The wikipedia says: 

"Excellence is a talent or quality which is unusually good and so surpasses ordinary standards. It is also an aimed for standard of performance."

It is a choice that anyone can make. But everything in this world needs dedication and sincerity.  To achieve excellence, sincerely dedicate yourself. This article is the gist of the lecture given by Mr. Tony Swartz in Harward Business School.


Here are few keys that can help you in the pursuit of excellence.





Pursue what you want: Passion an incredible motivator creates focus, resilience, and perseverance. Don't quit. Passion is the state in which your heart and mind is in unison.


 Do hardest work first: Most great performers follow this strategy. They take on the difficult work of practice in the mornings, before they do anything else. That's when most of us have the most energy and the fewest distractions.

Practice intensely: Without interruption for short periods of no longer than 90 minutes and then take a break. Ninety minutes appears to be the maximum amount of time that we can bring the highest level of focus to any given activity.


 Seek expert feedback, in intermittent doses: The simpler and more precise the feedback, the more equipped you are to make adjustments. Too much feedback, too continuously, however, can create interference.


Take regular renewal breaks: Relaxing after intense effort not only provides an opportunity to rejuvenate, but also to metabolize and embed learning. It's also during rest that the right hemisphere of brain becomes more dominant, which can lead to creative breakthroughs.

Ritualize practice: Will and discipline are wildly overrated. As the researcher Roy Baumeister has found, none of us have very much of it. The best way to insure you'll take on difficult tasks is to ritualize them — build specific, inviolable times at which you do them, so that over time you do them without having to squander energy thinking about them.


Well the above points seems to be simple and straight. Use the above keys to unlock the potential inside.

 Type regedit and press enter.





 2. Now navigate to the following entry

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters

 In the right side you will see an entry named “TransportBindName”, delete the original value to give a blank value.


  3. Once its done, now navigate to:
 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\OLE
In the right side, you will find a key named “EnableDCOM”, modify it from Y to N.

 

 4. Now close the registry and restart the computer for changes.
