Self Destructing Email

This note will self-destruct in five seconds! No longer do the spies in movies get to be the only ones sending or receiving notes that self-destruct. Now, you can send notes that destroy themselves as soon as your recipient reads them. Let’s check this out!

It’s a three step process. Step one: write the note. Step two: send the link for the note to the person the note is intended for. Step three: they read it and it’s destroyed right away!

So, start by typing your note in the blank text box. Once you’re finished composing your note, you have a decision to make. Do you want to know if they’ve read it? If so, make sure you click on the checkbox and fill in your e-mail address. If not, just click Post.

That will then create a link you can copy and paste into an e-mail addressed to your intended recipient. Then your work is done! They just have to read it and the message will self-destruct.

I sent myself one as a test and it really does destroy the messages after they’re read. In fact, it will inform you how long ago the note was read. How cool is that?!

This Web site gets two thumbs up from me for being so cool. Go enjoy it!

Diet keeps you young

You must eat the right diet when it comes to keeping your body healthy and looking young.

Eating plays a large role in maintaining your health and as well as in other walks of life. There are many anti aging foods which can be integrated into your diet. There are lots of supplements which should be included in your diet to maintain your health in a proper manner. It is also very important to be aware of the different types of food which can make you older. If you understand the effects of different foods on your body you will be able to adopt an anti aging diet that will help to keep you young.

What is the relation between diet and your age?

There are many foods which can encourage premature aging. Many components produce food items like American diet. This includes refined white flour, sugar, red meat, dairy products, fast foods and food additives which are responsible for becoming old. If you consume highly processed foods you tend to look old. Such foods can have an inflammatory effect on your cells, which can make you look old. This can also damage your health in a bad manner. If you are able to change your diet you will certainly see some changes. It has been proved that it is even possible to slow this aging process.

How to make your diet work for you

There are a number of different elements which should be included in your diet if you want to get the most from the foods which you eat. You should make sure that you are eating foods rich in vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. It is very important to have a well balanced diet using the fresh foods which you get.

Vitamins

An effective anti aging diet should include plenty of Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Vitamins B6 and B12. The reason is that all of them contain powerful antioxidants. The best anti aging food is fresh fruits and vegetables that consist of all of the vitamins. Vitamins are most commonly acquired through green and leafy vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, asparagus and parsley. Vitamin C is also found in green vegetables, citrus fruits, strawberries and potatoes. Vitamin E can easily be obtained through whole grains, nuts, seeds, green leafy vegetables and vegetable oil. Foods that contain vitamin A include eggs, carrots, pumpkins and apricots.

Minerals

Minerals are important in anti aging foods like vitamins and antioxidants. There are a number of minerals you should take into account in your diet. One of the abundant minerals in human body is calcium. This is important for controlling muscle contractions and building bones. Calcium can be obtained through milk and dairy products and from other foods like broccoli, spinach, tofu and beans. Magnesium is one of the most important anti aging minerals. It is found mostly in nuts. Potassium is easily obtained through tomatoes, bananas and peaches. It is important for maintaining regular heart rhythm. Selenium, which is known for its ability to fight conditions such as heart disease and cancer, is most obtained through red meats, grains, eggs, fish and chicken. Iron is one of the most essential minerals, as it is needed for the production of hemoglobin and it is important to many immune system functions. It is most commonly obtained through nuts, seeds and beans.

Other antioxidants

Beta carotene is another nutrient which is important for preventing the symptoms of old age from erupting soon. It provides the body with vitamin A and can also enhance the immune system and protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. Beta carotene is found in a large variety of fruits and vegetables, including sweet potatoes, carrots, broccoli, tomatoes, peaches and apricots. Folic acid, which is a B vitamin derivative, also helps the body to produce healthy new cells, and it is easily obtainable through green vegetables and brown rice.

Water

Of course, the most vital ingredient for staying young and healthy is water. Without enough water, your body will not be able to absorb vitamins and nutrients. The benefits of anti aging include keeping your skin healthy and as well as helping you to lose weight and increase your energy. It is generally recommended that you drink at least eight glasses of water a day.

What if I’m a vegetarian?

Vegetarians should have little trouble adapting an anti aging diet to their needs. In fact, it is even recommended that anybody wishing to adopt such a diet should stick primarily with vegetarian foods because of the health risks associated with today’s meat industry. Many people believe that it is not worth to take meat even though the fact remains that it contains lot of nutrients. The reason is that eating meat has an equal number of risks and hazards which your health may be exposed to.

In this case, vitamin and mineral supplements can help ensure that you are getting what you need. Integrating these anti aging foods and other elements into your diet will help ensure that you are getting the nutrients necessary for preventing premature aging and maintaining your health .

Software testing isnt cake walk

Every one thinks in software industry, Software testing division is a cursed one. But I feel interesting when I happened to test a Website.
But Website testing differs from Software testing. Though I’m doing testing now, I share my experience later. Lets review on the different kind of Software testing.

• ACCEPTANCE TESTING. Testing to verify a product meets customer specified requirements. A customer usually does this type of testing on a product that is developed externally.
• BLACK BOX TESTING. Testing without knowledge of the internal workings of the item being tested. Tests are usually functional.
• COMPATIBILITY TESTING. Testing to ensure compatibility of an application or Web site with different browsers, OSs, and hardware platforms. Compatibility testing can be performed manually or can be driven by an automated functional or regression test suite.
• CONFORMANCE TESTING. Verifying implementation conformance to industry standards. Producing tests for the behavior of an implementation to be sure it provides the portability, interoperability, and/or compatibility a standard defines.
• FUNCTIONAL TESTING. Validating an application or Web site conforms to its specifications and correctly performs all its required functions. This entails a series of tests which perform a feature by feature validation of behavior, using a wide range of normal and erroneous input data. This can involve testing of the product’s user interface, APIs, database management, security, installation, networking, etcF testing can be performed on an automated or manual basis using black box or white box methodologies.
• INTEGRATION TESTING. Testing in which modules are combined and tested as a group. Modules are typically code modules, individual applications, client and server applications on a network, etc. Integration Testing follows unit testing and precedes system testing.
• LOAD TESTING. Load testing is a generic term covering Performance Testing and Stress Testing.
• PERFORMANCE TESTING. Performance testing can be applied to understand your application or WWW site’s scalability, or to benchmark the performance in an environment of third party products such as servers and middleware for potential purchase. This sort of testing is particularly useful to identify performance bottlenecks in high use applications. Performance testing generally involves an automated test suite as this allows easy simulation of a variety of normal, peak, and exceptional load conditions.
• REGRESSION TESTING. Similar in scope to a functional test, a regression test allows a consistent, repeatable validation of each new release of a product or Web site. Such testing ensures reported product defects have been corrected for each new release and that no new quality problems were introduced in the maintenance process. Though regression testing can be performed manually an automated test suite is often used to reduce the time and resources needed to perform the required testing.
• SMOKE TESTING. A quick-and-dirty test that the major functions of a piece of software work without bothering with finer details. Originated in the hardware testing practice of turning on a new piece of hardware for the first time and considering it a success if it does not catch on fire.
• STRESS TESTING. Testing conducted to evaluate a system or component at or beyond the limits of its specified requirements to determine the load under which it fails and how. A graceful degradation under load leading to non-catastrophic failure is the desired result. Often Stress Testing is performed using the same process as Performance Testing but employing a very high level of simulated load.
• SYSTEM TESTING. Testing conducted on a complete, integrated system to evaluate the system’s compliance with its specified requirements. System testing falls within the scope of black box testing, and as such, should require no knowledge of the inner design of the code or logic.
• UNIT TESTING. Functional and reliability testing in an Engineering environment. Producing tests for the behavior of components of a product to ensure their correct behavior prior to system integration.
• WHITE BOX TESTING. Testing based on an analysis of internal workings and structure of a piece of software. Includes techniques such as Branch Testing and Path Testing. Also known as Structural Testing and Glass Box Testing.

Having Camera isn’t enough… : Tips on taking Pics

Here are some insider tips from three world-famous photographers about taking the perfect picture.

THE WORLD OF ANIMALS: FIVE TIPS FOR WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY
by Frans Lanting

1. PRACTICE YOUR SKILLS. Your own backyard is a great place to photograph animals, and so is the local zoo.
2. LEARN FROM YOUR PETS. Getting to know the behavior of your house pets will help you learn about the habits of some wild animals.
   
3. BE PATIENT. Learn as much as you can about the animal you want to photograph and spend time with it before you take any pictures.
   
4. THINK BEFORE YOU CLICK! Think about what you are looking at and why you are interested. The camera won’t decide for you—it’s just a tool!
   
5. OFF CENTER! The most interesting pictures are usually not centered. Think about how you frame the animal in the picture.

WONDERS OF NATURE: FIVE TIPS FOR SCENIC SHOTS
by Annie Griffiths Belt

1. USE NATURAL LIGHT. Photographers are always out taking pictures before the sun comes up, and long after it goes down to get the perfect light for their pictures.
   
2. NEW HORIZON. Try framing the horizon so it’s not in the middle of the picture.
   
3. FULL FRAME. Arrange your picture by thinking about the objects that surround the subject of your photograph. The best pictures have interesting elements that fill the whole photograph.
   
4. TRY SOMETHING NEW. Shoot creatively and try to get something
   really special. Get down on your stomach or carefully climb a tree to get a new angle.
   
5. KEEP SHOOTING. Don’t spend too much time looking at the pictures on your digital camera, it uses up the batteries quickly!
   
   

SMILE FOR THE CAMERA: FIVE TIPS FOR TAKING GREAT PORTRAITS
by Reza

1. SMILE. A nice smile is the best way to make people feel comfortable having their
   picture taken.
   
2. MAKE FRIENDS. Get to know the person you are taking a picture of. The more you know about someone, the more interesting your picture will be.
   
3. HAVE FUN. Taking pictures is not a chore, enjoy it!
   
4. MEAN IT. Take pictures that are meaningful to you. Photographs are a way to show friends and family how you see the world.
   
5. DON’T GIVE UP. It’s OK if you don’t get the perfect picture the first time. Keep trying until you are happy.

Flanked by two fitted shelves on either side and below it, the reclining part of this unit is as aesthetically appealing as it is functional for reader and book alike.

Designer website: http://www.stanislavkatz.com/

2. Lago:

When is a bookshelf not a bookshelf? When it’s a letter of the alphabet or a floating square. In short, a Lago invention. Well-known for their fluid, unconventional thinking, Italian masters of innovative furniture design, Daniele Lago and Massimo Bonnetti, have taken their free-thinking brand of expression to new levels with their floating ‘Shelf System’ range.

Called Tangram, the shelf system beautifully combines functionality and flexibility in its mission to create interaction between storage unit and items that are being stored.

By creating the illusion of weightlessness, the designers succeed in giving books as much prominence and appeal as the bookshelves, which come in a range of funky designs and shapes.

Designer website: http://www.lago.it/

3. Bookcase Into a Bed:

A great solution for maximizing space, Karen Babel’s bookcase-cum-bed promises to expand limited home horizons.

The mattress, which is made of four interlockable pieces, forms the base, which surrounds five storage shelves when placed in an upright position on a wall-mounted frame. To form a bed, the mattress pieces are locked together – with two parts for a single, and four for a double.

Designer:Karen Babel

4. Cave Book Shelf:

Inspired by the spacelessness of modern Japanese homes, Sakura Adachi created a womb-like reading room amidst a series of clean-lined shelf systems to keep the connection between reader and book as intimate as possible. Not for giants or those who prefer a more laissez faire approach to their favorite pastime.

Designer website: http://www.sakurah.net/

5. Andreas Hegert’s Book Shelf:

A rebel with a cause, Andreas Hegert gives anarchy a functional meaning with this squiggly trio of shelves, which range from 40cm to one meter in length. If you’re one of those eclectic readers whose interests range from Tolkien to Hegel, this random collection of shelves will suit your philosophical rhythm.

Pay no attention to the linear structure of walls, floor and ceiling, but mind you don’t cover the light shades, which are made of powder-coated sheet and fitted with LEDs.

Designer website: http://www.andreashegert.se/

6. Good Morning Technology Bookshelf:

A modern take on Scandinavian Shaker simplicity, this Danish blue and white block effect uses rectangular wood and metal cubbies as both storage and structural support.

An added beauty of the chequered system lies in the fact that the height can be adjusted and books are stacked horizontally or vertically.

Designer website: http://www.gmtn.dk/

7. Bookseat shelf chair:

There’s something to be said for keeping all your books and magazines in the place that you want to read them, as this all-in-one unit shows.

Designer: u:b studio, Omer Unal

10. Bookworm Bookshelf:

Designed to twist like a centipede into whatever shape you require, the Bookworm Bookshelf is just that: a firm, flexible, functional animal which needs only books to complete it.

Using extrusion technology, Ron Arad added imagination to a durable product, topped it off with book ends, and came up with an innovative, elastic design to brighten up the most static of environments.

Designer: Ron Arad

11. Twin Bookshelf:

Representing the two sides of Istanbul, Asian and European, Zeynep Cinisli’s design bridges the gap between design and practice. Using DNA-like strands as shelves between twin cells, the symbolism is all yin and yang.

Pushed apart, the cells are display mirrors of each other; pushed together they form a nucleic whole which functions as a wall cabinet. Symbolism at its most functional.

Designer: Zeynep Cinisli

12. Never Ending Bookshelf:

Though it would seem logical to include logic in the making of a practical item like a book shelf, designer Luca Nichetto decided convention was beyond his idea of functionality.

The resultant “Neverending” spyro gyra which he created undoubtedly qualifies as a sculptural work of art, but it is not clear how it works as a carrier of hard-cover books. Vive la difference!

Designer website: http://www.lucanichetto.com/

13. Knockdown Bookcase:

A boon for those who like to do it all themselves, Sung Won Park’s flat-pack DIY unit uses no glue, screws, wrenches or even instruction manuals.

Designer: Nils Holger Moormann

XEL takes the concept to a new level with its aluminium and glass rendition of ordered chaos which ensures you can pack every size and type of book into one space without looking anal. Use it like jazz up a stale room or add contemporary pizzazz to a funky loft.

Designer website: http://www.lucanichetto.com/

A versatile solution for those who believe their performance is deeply affected by their environment; Okapi Studio’s bookshelf design ensures boredom is out of the question.

Using lightweight modules that can be customized to everyone’s need, Okapi bends rigid shelf norms just enough to challenge the status quo, but not beyond the ridiculous. After all, it makes perfect sense to mould a shelf to fit the book, doesn’t it?

Designer website: http://www.okapistudio.com/

17. File Tree:

Essentially designed as a modern filing cabinet, Laurie Beckerman’s design is just as suited to books. Fitted with solid shelves emanating like erudite rays from a double diamond shape, her genius lies in its simplicity. Minimalist, functional and aesthetically appealing, this Zen item is a sparkling gem.

Designer website: http://lauriebeckerman.com/

18. Split Shelving:

Constructed by cutting a log into four unequal sections and adding a few slats around the side, Peter Marigold’s honeycomb-like wall units provide endless possibilities for adding new honey to the book hive.

Another one is for those who are not crazy about order, but like a geometric slant to their décor. Descriptive rather than prescriptive, Marigold’s tantalizing solution is equally useful for stacking loose paper and other knick-knacks.

Designer website: http://www.petermarigold.com/

19. Flying Vee:

Like winged ducks in various states of flight, the L or V shape of this customizable design makes a versatile way of keeping your books in a row. Each sheet of bent metal provides space for one or more books to be catalogued or hung according to your personal whim. Fiction or fact? Let the shape of the book shelf dictate.

Designer website: http://www.massieoffice.com/

20. Fly Shelf:

Slick, slim and oh so Italian, this bookshelf system with integrated projection screen will ensure Fellini has as much pride of place as Dante. Keep those aging classics on the shelf and watch old original at the same time. Only those with a projector-based home theatre system need apply.

Designer website: http://www.livit.it/

21. Elastic Bookshelf:

For avid bibliophiles, there can be few things more exciting than the concept of an elasticized book shelf. Made of wide conveyor-belt like elastic bands stretched between two pegs on a wall, Arianna Vivenzio’s invention does more than stretch the imagination.

Besides your beloved books, you can squeeze just about anything into the space in the middle. From CDs to boxes of memorabilia, the possibilities are expansive and the simple design lends itself to hanging a multiple-use series without spoiling the aesthetics.

Designer website: http://www.ariannavivenzio.com/

22. Balancing Shelf:

Dubbed “Maintain the Balance of your Knowledge”, Denis Oh’s hanging shelf is sure to test your sense of equilibrium. Accommodating every swing of reading mood, the pendulum-like counter-balancers will ensure you don’t overload the heavy stuff if you want to stay on an even keel. Feel like dipping wildly? The choice is entirely yours.

Designer: Denis Oh

23. Strip Shelf:

One of the few designers who can claim to have a foot in the green tree-hugging and futuristic plastic-loving world of smart design, Casey Mack has got it sussed when it comes to catering to a global audience.

Made of 75% sawdust, and secured with movable plastic book ends, the adaptable shelf provides a practical home for every description of book, while satisfying the aesthetic tastes of Zen minimalists. “If people’s hearts can be like the trees, they will not be off the Way.”

Designer: Casey Mack

24. Pisa Book Shelf:

Operating on a similar principle to a deck chair, this tall narrow bookshelf is a sculptural piece and a functional whole. Though it creates an impression on its own, it is best accompanied by one or more copies for optimum effect. Lent a certain amount of gravity by the stark boldness of design, Matt Carr’s leaning tower is unlikely to fade into the background.

Product website: http://www.umbra.com/

25. Droopy Book Shelf:

Though it looks like a see-saw that could whip in the opposite direction at any given moment, Jill Davis’s angled shelf has enough centrifugal force to keep it from flipping.

Minimalist in the extreme, its attraction lies in its sheer simplicity and mysterious capacity to keep heavy books afloat. Not quite library material, but ideal for all those manuals and self-help courses you keep dipping into.

Designer website: http://www.jilldavisdesign.com/

26. Book & shelf:

While some shelves are purely functional, others entirely whimsical, Haba Yoshitaka’s concept takes individualist fetishism to the limit.

Customized to fit a given set of books exactly within a 36cm square, the unit is cut, assembled and glued around the owner’s personal collection which renders the entire freedom of choice. Ideal if you have a book collection on a specific subject, or want to win eternal points in the personalized gift department.

Designer website: http://www.nendo.jp/

27. Wall Wave:

Multi-functionality at its most enigmatic, Yoon-Zee Kim’s flowing piece of furniture allows its usage to be interpreted by the user. A zingy, modular shelf unit easily doubles as a fixed seat and desk space or a platform for hanging pot plants and funky photographs. Seeing is believing. Functionality is in the eye of the user.

Designer: Yoon-Zee Kim

28. Cell Shelf:

A cross between a matrix of DNA cells and a ladder in appearance, this unusual stacking device has plenty of space for holding piles of all descriptions.

The thin, vertical shaft gives its height and space-saving points. 10 out of 10 for originality and maneuverability. Aesthetics and functionality questionable. “We shape clay into a pot, but it is the emptiness inside that holds whatever we want.” – Lao Tze

Product website: http://www.untothislast.co.uk/

29. Rolling shelf:

A zany take on floating shelves, Catherine Greene’s design uses individual pieces of wood to stabilize stretched lengths of fabric, which can be rolled up according to the owner’s requirements or taste. An interesting space for blending book collections with decorative bits.

Designer website: http://www.catgreene.com/

30. The Line King:

A grown-up take on the sketching exercise which requires you to create and complete a house without lifting your pencil, the “Line” furniture system does just the same to the interior of your home.

Using a single no-break line, designer Aykut Erol transports a work table, hanger, bookshelf, wine rack, CD rack, TV stand and lighting unit to your living space. Minimalism at its purest, the potential for storage is infinite and can be adapted to home or office. Sorted – in one fell swoop!

Designer website: http://www.aykuterol.com/

31. Fairytale Bookshelf:

A challenge to anyone who has ever thought that you can judge a book by its shelf, this whimsical winged creation gives new meaning to the concept of fairytales.

Enclosed in what looks like a horizontal clasp, one or two books metamorphosise into a giant butterfly when extracted from their pupa. Novelty value beyond 10.

Designer website: http://www.bility.is

Bath like a chick

Italians always are up with modern yet comfortable furniture. This time they are out with some luxurious egg shaped metal jaded waterfall bathtub.

This prettier bathtub will be in the smooth organic form and it is available in pristine white with delicately shaded inside, in the pastel colors of spring.

You can choose your favorite color for this bathtub as it is available in various colors such as violet, light blue, gentle pink, etc.

Cascading chains fall from a runner mounted on the ceiling up above the bathtub for an optional touch of glamour.

The sparkling silver chains bring dramatic flair to the simple bathtub.
