Why GOD allows pain and suffering ?

This is one of the best explanations of why God allows pain and suffering that I have seen....
A man went to a barbershop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed. As the barber began to work, they began to have a good conversation.They talked about so many things and various subjects.
When they eventually touched on the subject of God, the barber said: "I don't believe that God exists." Find Your True Love on Sirfdosti!!

"Why do you say that?" asked the customer. "Well, you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn't exist. Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? Find Your True Love on Sirfdosti!!

If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain.
I can't imagine a loving God who would allow all of these things."
The customer thought for a moment, but didn't respond because he didn't want to start an argument. The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop.

Just after he left the barbershop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard.
He looked dirty and unkempt..
The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again and he said to the barber:
"You know what? Barbers do not exist."
"How can you say that?" asked the surprised barber.
"I am here, and I am a barber. And I just worked on you!"
"No!" the customer exclaimed. "Barbers don't exist because
if they did, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside."

"Ah, but barbers DO exist! That's what happens when people do not come to me."
"Exactly!" affirmed the customer. "That's the point! God, too, DOES exist!
That's what happens when people do not go to Him and don't look to Him for help.
That's why there's so much pain and suffering in the world."

Search Google On your Wrist with GWatch


GOOGLE WATCH
The Google USB Search Watch (Model #8002RPA10; estimated retail $89) will bring Google’s popular search engine technology to a wristwatch. Apparently users will be able to use a modified Google API to view search results on your wrist. At launch, the “GWatch” will be limited to local search results–your zip, city, or state. Google has plans to turn the GWatch into a mobile adding widgets, RSS feeds, and YouTube videos in the future. By plugging the watch into your computer and downloading the compressed local index, you’ll be able to search more than 100 million geo-targeted web pages.

इंग्लिश का सबसे लंबा शब्द

PNEUMONOULTRAMICROSCOPICSILICOVOLCANOCONIOSIS
यानी न्यूमनोअल्ट्रामाइक्रॉस्कोपिकसिलिकोवॉलकेनोकोनीयोसिस।

यह एक बीमारी का नाम है जो फेफड़े में बहुत ही महीन धूल और राख के कणों के जाने से होती है।

Freelancer - पैसे दो और मेरा भाला ले लो

FREELANCER
यह शब्द बना जब एक योद्धा ने कहा कि उसका भाला ( LANCE ) आज़ाद है और कोई भी पैसे देकर उससे युद्ध करवा सकता है। यानी फ्रीलांसर वे सैनिक थे जो पैसे लेकर किसी के लिए भी लड़ने को तैयार थे। आजकल ऐसे लोगों के लिए MERCENARY (भाड़े के सैनिक) शब्द का इस्तेमाल होता है और फ्रीलांसर उन लोगों को कहते हैं जो किसी संस्थान से न जुड़े हों और स्वतंत्र तौर पर काम करते हों। आम तौर पर यह पत्रकारों के मामले में यूज़ किया जाता है। वे पत्रकार जो किसी अखबार या मैगज़ीन से न जुड़े हों और स्वतंत्र तौर पर काम करते हों, उन्हें फ्रीलांस जर्नलिस्ट कहा जाता है। यह अलग बात है कि आज के फ्रीलांसर के पास भाला नहीं, कलम, कैमरा या कंप्यूटर होता है।

Happy New Year 2008 & 25 Years of TCP/IP Protocol Suite

The Internet protocol suite is the set of communications protocols that implement the protocol stack on which the internet and most commercial networks run. It has also been referred to as the TCP/IP protocol suite, which is named after two of the most important protocols in it: theTransmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP), which were also the first two networking protocols defined. Today's IP networking represents a synthesis of two developments that began in the 1960s and 1970s, namely LANs (Local Area Networks) and the Internet, which, together with the invention of the World Wide Web by Tim Berners-Lee in , have revolutionized computing.

The Internet Protocol suite—like many protocol suites—can be viewed as a set of layers. Each layer solves a set of problems involving the transmission of data, and provides a well-defined service to the upper layer protocols based on using services from some lower layers. Upper layers are logically closer to the user and deal with more abstract data, relying onlower layer protocols to translate data into forms that can eventually be physically transmitted. The TCP/IP reference model consists of four layers.

In 1975, a two-network TCP/IP communications test was performed between Stanford and University College London (UCL). In November, 1977, a three-network TCP/IP test was conducted between the U.S., UK, and Norway. Between 1978 and 1983, several other TCP/IP prototypes were developed at multiple research centres.
A full form of TCP/IP on the ARPANET took place January 1, 1983.
