Can You Drink This Wine?
Snakes alive, the venomous vino that comes with added bite
Forget eating the worm after downing your tequila - with these bottles of unusual wine produced in Vietnam, a tasty tipple comes with a far more potent bite.
A village there is producing snake and scorpion wine and shipping it worldwide, with the rare beverage available to order online.
The venomous cobra snake is used to make the snake wine but the poison is cancelled out by the alcoholic content of the drink, meaning you'll avoid a pounding hangover.
This wine's certainly got teeth: Bottles of snake and scorpion wine can now be ordered online as an unusual gift or even a health tonic
Similarly, months of fermenting means the dead scorpion encased in the yellow bottles doesn't have the same sting in the tail as when it was alive.
These new pictures show how the cobras and black scorpions are preserved in the liquid to have their poison dissolve in the rice wine.
Because snake venoms are protein-based, they are inactivated by the denaturing effects of ethanol, and thus are no more dangerous.
Instead, the liquor is considered healthy and seemingly has many health benefits.
Fangs for the memories: The cobra's potent poison is negated by the ethanol used in the rice wine
Snake and scorpion wines are also known as a natural medicine used to treat different health problems such as back pain, rheumatism, lumbago and other health conditions.
These rice-based liquors are also considered to be a strong natural aphrodisiac.
While you might baulk at the idea of giving your other half a bottle for Valentine's Day, the drink has been touted as one of the most manly beverages ever made.
Snake wine has been considered an effective curative for thousands of years but is also widely thought to increase male virility.
There are thought to over 100 forms of 'Ruou thuoc' or 'medicine wine' available in Vietnam, many of which are infused with the remains of wildlife, with even endangered species included in the distilling process.
Snakebite siblings: The Vietnamese liquors can be used for lumbago or to spice up your love life

Best Interview Must Read.....
Interviewer: Tell me about
yourself.
Candidate: I am Rameshwar Kulkarni. I did my Tele
Communication
engineering from BabanRao Dhole Institute of
Technology.
Interviewer: BabanRao Dhole. Institute of Technology?
I had never
heard of this college before!
Candidate: Great! Even I had not heard of it before
getting an
admission into it . What happened is - due to cricket
world cup I
scored badly in 12th.I was getting a paid seat in a
good college. But
my father said (I prefer to call him 'baap') - "I can
not invest so
much of money".(The baap actually said - "I will never
waste so much
of money on you"). So I had to join this college.
Frankly speaking this name - BabanRao Dhole, can at
the most be
related to a Shetakari Mahavidyalaya he he he...
Interviewer: ok, ok. It seems you have taken 6 years
to complete your
engineering.
Candidate: Actually I tried my best to finish it in 4
years. But you
know , these cricket matches and football world cup,
and tennis
tournaments..It is difficult to concentrate. So I
flunked in 2nd and
3rd year. So in all I took 4 + 2 = 7 years.
Interviewer: But 4+2 is 6.
Candidate: Oh, is it? You know I always had KT in
maths. But I will
try to keep this in mind. 4+2 is 6, good, thanks.
These cricket
matches really affect exams a lot. I think they should
ban it.
Interviewer: Good to know that you want cricket
matches to be banned.
Candidate: No, no.. I am talking about Exams!!
Interviewer: Ok, What is your biggest achievement in
life?
Candidate: Obviously, completing my Engineering. My
mom never thought
I would complete it. In fact, when i flunked in 3rd
year, she was
looking for a job for me in BEST(Bus corporation in
Andhra Pradesh)
through some relative .
Interviewer: Do you have any plans of higher study?
Candidate: he he he.. Are you kidding? Completing
'lower' education
itself was so much of pain!!
Interviewer: Let's talk about technical stuff. On
which platforms have
you worked?
Candidate: Well, I work at KPHB (Kukatpalli Housing
Board), so you can
say Ameerpet is my current platform .
Earlier I was at Charminaar center. So Charminaar was
my platform then.
As you can see I have experience of different
platforms ! (Charminaar
and Ameerpet are the places in Hyderabad)
Interviewer: And which languages have you used?
Candidate: Telugu, Hindi, English. By the way, I can
keep quiet in
German, French, Russian and many other languages
he he he...
Interviewer: Why VC is better than VB?
Candidate: It is a common sense - C comes after B. So
VC is a higher
version than VB. I heard very soon they are coming up
with a new
language VD! also...
Interviewer: Do you know anything about Assembly
Language?
Candidate: Well, I have not heard of it. But I guess,
this is the
language our ministers and MPs use in assembly .
Interviewer: What is your general project experience?
Candidate: My general experience about projects is -
most of the times
they are in pipeline!
Interviewer: Can you tell me about your current job?
Candidate: Sure, Currently I am working for Bata
InfoTech ltd. Since
joining BIL(Bata InfoTech Ltd.), I am on Bench. Before
joining BIL, I
used to think that Bench was another software like
Windows he he he..
Interviewer: Do you have any project management
experience?
Candidate: No, but I guess it shouldn't be difficult.
I know Word and
Excel. I can talk a lot. I know how to dial for
International phone call
and use speaker facility. And very important - I know
few words like -
'Showstoppers ' , 'hotfixes',
'SEI-CMM','quality','versioncontrol','deadlines' ,
'Customer
Satisfaction' etc. Also I can blame others for my
mistakes!
Interviewer: What are your expectations from our
company?
Candidate: Not much.
1. I should at least get 40,000 in hand.
2. I would like to work on a live EJB project. But it
should not have
deadlines. I personally feel that pressure affects
natural talent.
3. I believe in flexi-timings.
4. Dress code is against basic freedom, so I would
like to wear
t-shirt and jeans.
5. We must have sat-sun off. I will suggest wednesday
off also, so as
to avoid breakdown due to overwork.
6. I would like to go abroad 3 times a year on short
term preferably
1-2 months) assignments. Personally I prefer
US,Australia and Europe.
But considering the fact that there is a world cup inWest Indies in
2007,I don't mind going there in that period . As you
can see I am
modest and don't have many expectations. So can I
assume my selection?
Interviewer: he he he ha ha ha. Thanks for your
interest in our
organization. In fact I was never entertained so much
before.
We look forward to working with you..:-)

G i rlfriend 5.0 to W i fe 1.0
Dear Tech Support Team:
Last year I upgraded from Girlfriend 5.0 to Wife 1.0.
I soon noticed that the new program began unexpected child-processes that took up a lot of space and valuable resources.
In addition, Wife 1.0 installed itself into all other programs and now monitors all other system activities.
Applications such as BachelorNights 10.3, Cricket 5.0, BeerWithBuddies 7.5, and Outings 3.6 no longer runs, crashing the system whenever selected. I can't seem to keep Wife 1.0 in the background while attempting to run my favorite applications.
I'm thinking about going back to Girlfriend 5.0 , but the 'uninstall' doesn't work on Wife 1.0.
Please help!
Thanks,
"A Troubled User"
REPLY:
Dear Troubled User:
This is a very common problem that people complain about.
Many people upgrade from Girlfriend 5.0 to Wife 1.0, thinking that it is just a Utilities and Entertainment program.
Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and is designed by its Creator to run EVERYTHING!! !
It is also impossible to delete Wife 1.0 and to return to Girlfriend 5.0.
It is impossible to uninstall, or purge the program files from the system once installed.
You cannot go back to Girlfriend 5.0 because Wife 1.0 is designed not to allow this. (Look in your Wife 1.0 Manual under Warnings-Alimony- Child Support) ..
I recommend that you keep Wife1.0 and work on improving the environment.
I suggest installing the background application "Yes Dear" to alleviate software augmentation.
The best course of action is to enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE because
ULT i MATELY you will have to give the APOLOGIZE command before
the system will return to normal anyway.
Wife 1.0 is a great program, but it tends to be very high maintenance. Wife 1.0 comes with several support programs, such as Clean 2.5, Sweep 3.0, Cook 1.5 and DoLaundry 4.2. However, be very careful how you use these programs. Improper use will cause the system to launch the
program NagNag 9.5 . Once this happens, the only way to improve the performance of Wife 1.0 is to purchase additional software. I recommend
Sarees 2.1 and Jewellery 5.0
the system will return to normal anyway.

Celebrate Life......Your life is reflection of your thoughts
There were once 2 brothers who lived on the 80th
floor of a tall building.
On coming home one day, they realized to their
dismay that the lifts were not working and that they have to climb the stairs
home. After struggling to the 20th level, panting and tired, they decided to
abandon their bags and come back for them the next day. They left their bags
then and climbed on............
When they have struggled to the 40th level by
this time they had gone sufficiently mad and irritated. The younger brother
started to grumble and both of them began to quarrel. They continued to climb
the flights of steps, quarreling all the way to the 60th floor.
They then realized that they have only 20 levels
more to climb and decided to stop quarreling and continue climbing in peace.
They silently climbed on and reached their home at long last! . Each stood
calmly before the door and waited for the other to open the door. And they
realized that the key was in their bags which were left on the 20th
floor.........
This story is a reflection on our life and
times. All of us climb the tall building called career ...........some till all
the 80 floors and some less. But do we know that the key to happiness is in the
bag which has been left back on the 20th floor only Know your dreams and follow
it so that you will not live with regrets.
Inside each of us are powers so strong, treasures
so rich, possibilities so endless, that to command them all to action would
change the history of the world.

Life........"Your life is reflection of your thoughts"

Now, take a look at this...
101%
From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:
What Equals 100%?
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?
We have all been in situations where someone wants you to
GIVE OVER 100%.
How about ACHIEVING 101%?
What equals 100% in life?
Here's a little mathematical formula that might help
answer these questions:
If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
Is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.
If:
H-A-R-D-W-O-R- K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%
And:
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%
But:
A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%
THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:
L-O-V-E-O-F-G-O-D
12+15+22+5+15+6+7+15+4 = 101%
Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:
While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will
get you there, It's the Love of God that will put you over the top!
It's up to you if you share this with your friends & loved ones just
the way I did.
