An incident took place in Pune, India - a young girl was attacked by a man posing as a plain Clothes Police Officer. He asked her to come to the police station when she & her male friend didn't have a driver's license to show. He sent the boy off to get his license and asked the girl to accompany him to the police station. Took her instead to an isolated area where the horrendous crime was committed.
The Indian law [which most of us are not aware of] clearly states that between 6 pm and 6 am, a woman has the right to REFUSE to go to the Police Station , even if an arrest warrant has been issued against her. It is a procedural issue that a woman can be arrested between 6pm and 6am, ONLY if she is arrested by a woman officer & taken to an ALL WOMEN police station. And if she is arrested by a male officer, it has to be proven that a woman officer was on duty at the time of arrest.
Please share this link with as many girls you know. Also to boys coz this can help them protect their wife, sisters and mother. It is good for us to know our rights. Do not neglect, share with your entire buddy list.
The cabin crew repetedly announce to switch off your cell phones on board in a flight. There is a reason for it. If you keep the cell phone switched on, it tries to search for signal and interfears with the Navigational system of the flight. This is a prime cause of many air crashes causing death of many lives.
Friends, please take it as a serious note to swirch off you cell phone in flights. Also spread this message to your friends and relatives. Be a cause for awareness among our fellow people!

Please join us on Saturday, March 27, 2010 to participate in Earth Hour , a global event in which people around the world will switch off their lights to take a stand against climate change. We request you to switch off the lights on that day from 8:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. (your local time).

If you’re interested in participating in the great cause, we invite you to register on the Earth Hour site, so that your participation will be included in the official tally of participants. For more information on Earth Hour, visit www.earthhour.org.

What is Infant Diarrhea?
Infant Diarrhea is a disease caused by increased number of bowel movements in a baby causing dehydration and making the baby week. Also, other associated symptoms with Infant Diarrhea are fever.
Causes of Infant Diarrhea:
The main cause of Infant Diarrhea is viral gastroenteritis (the "stomach flu"). The flu/virus enters the infant's body due to unhygenic conditions around him.
Cure:
Most important suggestion and life saving solution is rehydrating the baby with commonly found ORS (Oral Rehydration Salts). It is available in all government hospitals for free. It is only possible because of the UNICEF. If you want to help save a life you can donate to UNICEF. Donate Now. www.supportunicefindia.org
Precautions:
1. Clean hands properly before eating anything
2. Clean hands properly after toilet
3. If baby is having outside food, stop it for sometime and give him breast feeding only.
4. Consult a doctor if fever continues to stay in the baby.
I saw a poster in my office saying Save Environment: Save Water, Paper and Electricity. What does it mean? Why should I bother about environment?
Here is the answer. The environment is changing everyday. We are not getting proper rainfall. Agriculture is severely affected for that and the food production is highly reduced for that. How can we live without food?
Water level is going down. There will be huge deficit of drinking water. Do you think you can live without drinking water?
Temperature is increasing and it is unbearable during summer. Can you imagine to stay in hot summer where even an Air Conditioner will not be able to protect you from heat?
Energy resources are getting finished. Can you imagine a day without electricity?
Just think about it. One day this situation will come if we don't take the steps now. I know nobody wants to give an earth to their children where they will struggle for these basic needs.
Time has come to take action.
Don't waste water.
1. Take short shower.
2. Don't leave the tap open. Close taps properly.
3. Repair if there is leakage in water pipes.
4. Water the plants with as much water the plant needs, not more.
5. Turn off the water while you brush your teeth.
Don't waste paper. Paper comes from trees. If we cut down more trees for paper production, it has a direct impact on climate.
1. Use one tissue at a time.
2. Take printout only if it is necessary. Think before you print.
3. Use both sides of a sheet.
4. Recycle the paper you use.
Save energy. Save electricity.
1. Switch of all electrical appliances when you are going out of your home or leaving office.
2. Switch off monitor or TV when not in use.
3. Don't use air conditioners much. Use fans instead of AC.
4. Use solar water heater and solar panel as an alternative and renewable source of energy
5. Use 5 watt CFL for bathrooms and toilets
6. Use the microwave instead of the oven for cooking.
