DO's nd DONT's on FACEBOOK



London, Nov 08 (ANI): Wonder how much of personal information is fine on Facebook? Well, an expert tells you the dos and don'ts of being a part of the social networking giant.

Dave Whitelegg said that although Facebook is a fun way to keep in touch with friends and family, it can also be dangerous.

"Posting certain photos or information on the site puts you at risk of being fired, a victim of crime, or even worse. There are computer programmes called 'data mining' that sweep Facebook to collect dates of birth, phone numbers, addresses etc. That's gold dust to criminals," the Sun quoted Whitelegg, an IT security expert, as saying.

Here are the 10 things you should never post on Facebook and why.

Date and place of birth- This places you at massive risk of identity theft. They are the most commonly used security questions on password resetting sites.

Mother's maiden name-A lot of sites use your mother's maiden name to authenticate who you are. They also commonly use the school you went to as a security question.

Address- It again puts you at risk from identity fraud, but also from burglars and stalkers.

Holidays-If you post an update on Facebook saying: "Can't wait till next Wednesday - two weeks in Miami yeh!" you are basically saying: "Come and rob me."

Short trips from home-Again, this can put you at risk of burglary and stalking.

Inappropriate photos- Don't post racy, illicit, offensive or incriminating photos. Bosses and prospective employers are increasingly looking at Facebook pages.

Confessionals-These can also get you fired or haunt you for the rest of your life. Posting you are skiving work, who you are sleeping with, or doing something shameful is just dumb.

Phone number-Unless you want to be bombarded with unsolicited phone calls from people trying to sell you something - don't.

Children's names-These can be used by identity fraudsters or, more sinisterly, by paedophiles. It is much easier to steal a child's identity. An adult will eventually discover something is wrong by, for example, their credit rating being affected. Children won't.

Don't post a full public profile-It won't just exist on Facebook, it will go on any internet search such as Google. Only give the bare bones such as a name. Keep everything else private. (ANI)

YENTHIRAN REVIEW tamill movie-2010



Superstar Rajinikanth ‘s Yenthiran is a science fiction movie and director Shankar does justice to the title. Stamping his authority on compute graphics, Shankar once again proved why he’s an ace filmmaker. The cost of the budget was clearly evident in songs and action episodes as Shankar truly depicts a passionate Yenthiran story.

Vasikar (Rajinikanth) is a scientist who does research in Yenthiranics and Sana (Aishwarya Rai) . He introduces a Yenthiran (Chitti) and aspires to present it to Indian Defence to bolster their resistance mechanism. Chitti does all the unbelievable activities and rescues operations as well. However, Vasikar Professor Bohra (Danny) denies permission to send this to Defence on the grounds that Chitti is purely a Yenthiran and kills anybody. Just when Vasikar is about to destroy, Chitti says that he loves Sana. Contrastingly the envious Bohra develops a killer Yenthiran for terrorist activities. The plot unveils as to how Vasikar destroys the killer Yenthiran and wins SANA.

Yenthiran review was the much awaited one, and we have to say that the movie’s technical competencies are on par with Hollywood. Against his conventional style of film making, Shankar has gone for the Yenthiran technology, but caught in a spot of bother in terms of story and screenplay. The story lacks the required fizz and intensity, and also did not end convincingly. Interestingly, in Yenthiran, Rajnikanth also plays a negative shade in the form of killer Yenthiran.

From Rajinikanth’s viewpoint, he donned a different character as against her earlier movies, which has complete commercial dialogues as Yenthiran movie runs entirely on Rajinikanth. Amidst these fantastical, futuristic images, Shankar keeps the flavour severely home- grown. But in the end, Yenthiran is only technically brilliant – unrivalled and unsurpassed.It’s not a great story and with twists and turns, but you can surely enjoy the roller coaster ride. The first half of Yenthiran is exciting with high voltage graphics and entertainment. But the second half loses its firmness and rather becomes unconvincing towards the end.

Superstar Rajinikanth delivers breath taking performance. However, don’t expect typical Rajnikanth dialogues in this film. As it goes, Rajni gets better with age.Aishwarya Rai is aptly suited for her role and does well. Shankar captured her stunning visuals and looks in few tight close shots. Danny is adequate. Music by AR Rahman is very good and the background score in action episodes is very thrilling. Couples of numbers are very well composed. Computer graphics hogs limelight for Yenthiran more than anything else. The CG work is world class and visuals are stunning. Rathnavelu, the cameraman does a fantastic job when it comes to close shots.

All in all, Yenthiran is a technically proficient movie and its worth watching such a brilliantly made film. It’s the first of its kind movie in India for sure. Go watch for sheer computer life likes and ascribe to ace director Shankar.

CROOK (2010) hindi movie synopsis


Jai has a knack of getting into trouble. His Father was a gangster who wanted to reform. On assurance from his friend Inspector Joseph, Jai's father agreed to rat on his evil bosses. Inspector Joseph guaranteed him that he would find Jai's father and Jai a safe passage into the world of good once his bosses have been exposed. But the unexpected happened. Jai witnessed the fatal double cross on his father, despite his confession, by a senior police officer. Joseph's valiant effort to save him went in vain. This traumatic incident left a lasting impression on Jai's mind that there was no point in being good and that 'It's Good to be Bad.' Joseph adopted Jai out of guilt and tried to instill his Christian values of finding a God within but the memories from the past had already cast themselves deep in Jai's mind. Despite repeated attempts to reform him, Joseph failed to ignite the light of good within Jai's soul. And when matters went almost completely out of hand with Jai's checkered criminal life, Joseph arranged an alternate identity for him as Suraj Bhardwaj and sent him away to Australia – a land far away from his past. Jai had promised Joseph in Australia he would stay clear of any trouble. It was a golden chance to feel the grass on the other side of the fence. Almost immediately after landing, Jai met Suhani, an Indian Australian with an unadulterated honest vision of 'one world'. Although she hailed from a conservative traditional Punjabi family that took pride in being Indian, Suhani secretly fostered a much liberal outlook towards life. Her elder brother Samarth was just the opposite. Samarth was convinced that Australians had a one-point agenda to bring Indians down. Jai found his home with the bumbling punju boys GoldE and gang. They were happy go lucky 'sardar' boys who knew that the ticket to heaven was through attaining a permanent residency in Australia. GoldE almost echoed Joseph's voice when he warned Jai to stay out of trouble and concentrate on his work – he arranged for Jai to get a job as a taxi driver in Samarth's garage. Suhani was intrigued by Jai's manner. He was flirting but with a flair. He was lying but in style and he was conniving but with a pure heart. She could spot in the first instant that she met Jai that beyond his prankster lying front, Jai had a deeper side to himself that he refused to acknowledge. Jai knew that if he could make Suhani fall in love with him he could eventually attain permanent residency by marrying her but her brother was too much of an obstacle. So while Jai was busy scheming for Suhani's love he was also flirting with Nicole, the stripper from a nearby strip club. But his problems with Nicole were almost similar to Suhani's as Nicole's brother, Russel, was a rowdy skinhead from the block. Trouble followed Jai where he tried to run away from it as he witnessed the cold-blooded racial assault on Samarth. Going to the police would mean an investigation on Jai's credentials and walking away would mean losing Suhani. Jai had fled from India to find a new hassle free life and now found himself in the heart of a racially disturbed city. Jai's plight grew as the racial attacks spread across the city. The only way to deal with the issue at hand was to take the bull by its horns. He found himself at a crossroad of good and bad. But ironically the line dividing good and bad was running straight through his heart. It was a time when Jai had to figure whether it's Good to be bad or it is Good to be Good.

Less is more: Get slimmer on two wheels now



In this day of adrenalin rush, we tend to forget (or ignore altogether) how to breathe and how to chew the food in out mouth. Why don’t we invest in a little bit of our time to kick back and chillax if it makes us live longer? It doesn’t need to take hours, how about just 30 minutes of walking?
If walking isn’t your cup of tea, how about cycling? I stumble upon this picture in Google and it immediately put a smile on my face. I hope it does the same to you too!
