Eid Al Fitr: A Blessed and Joyful Time for Muslims

In the ninth month of the lunar year, Eid- al-fitr or Ramzan eid (the "festival of breaking of the fast") comes as the great festivities of Muslims. It marks the end of the auspicious Ramadan month for all Muslims across the globe. In this holy day thousands of happy and pious Muslims dressed in new clothes celebrate it with great enthusiasm, grandeur and devotion. They involve in various pious and charitable activities. With their families and friends, Muslim people go for a feast to conclude their thirty days of fasting from dawn-to-dusk. As the month is closely associated with the month of Ramadan, the festival is also called by another name “Ramadan”. Moreover, the festival has its different names like the Sugar Feast, the Sweet Festival, Feast of Breaking the Fast and the Lesser Eid.

What is Ramadan?

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar when Muslims around the world abstain from drinking, eating and sexual relations from dawn to dusk. The sole purpose of the Ramzan is the external manifestation of their spiritual acts. It is an endeavor for gaining control over seven deadly sins. The Ramadan fasting time, throughout a month, helps them cleanse their hearts, minds, tongues and the limbs. Indulging in vain talk, gossip, and back-biting is strictly prohibited during this time. Alongside, touching no Forbidden things or looking not at them is strictly maintained. 

Celebration of  Ed

Ideally this celebration lasts for three days. On this blessed day Muslim people wake up early in the morning to break their fast. Then the ceremony starts with the worship in a large open area where thousands of Muslims get together for their holy prayer. After that a short sermon is delivered among them. They greet each other and distribute eid special sweets and some specialized sweetmeats among them. Immediately after this celebration, they celebrate a private ceremony to sacrifice goats or lambs or cows and distribute meats among poor classes.

Though there are no hard-and-fast symbols for Ramadan celebration, but some Muslim countries driven by festive moods include various Ramadan decorations for welcoming Eid. They light up the streets and decorate public squares with dazzling lights to add more grandeur to it.   

Idea Phobia

Are you an Idea subscriber? I mean are you using idea cellular service? Are you a victim of Idea’s anti-customer-centric polices and services. If yes, you are at your right destination. Now go through the article to know well how Idea can deceive and make money from you. Why most of the Idea subscribers are switching from Idea to other net work providers?  How can one Idea hell your life?

As reports have come from different sources and from my survey and sampling that the transformation rate of Idea through MNP is greater than any other network providers in India. This is every inch a true and highly applicable for Kolkata.  I am ready to accept the challenge if anyone can prove it false. The people of Kolkata being most sincere and highly educated, in spite of the relentless effort of marketing people in Idea, their dream of getting a strong customer base in Kolkata has been shattered into pieces. Almost all citizens in Kolkata who have ever used its vile quality cell phone service either have thrown their Idea SIMs or transformed from it to the other network providers through MNP or Mobile Number Portability. You need not believe in my words, just go to the marketplace and ask mobile shopkeepers for an Idea SIM or Idea recharge, and let me know  how many of them have been able to pride you with the same: probably one in a hundred or less than that.

Now why this intense dissatisfaction and mass rejection of Idea!  

Have your quick glance at the points mentioned below.  

MNP Problem

If you want to switch from any cellular phone company or another network, it will allow you to do easily except Idea. To be more precise if you want to switch from Idea to another network provider, it will not allow you now. Why? The only reason is that they already have the information from TRAI, different media, news sources and more significantly thorough various survey and sampling that they have achieved the highest transformation rate from their cellular service to the other service provider.  Now let me take one real example to prove how they bar you when you try for a transformation. An endeavor was made by an Idea subscriber (Mobile No: 7890686946) to transform from Idea to Tata Docomo but within few days after application in spite of having validity, SIM card registration got failed. 

Money Deduction Problem

I have scarcely come across an Idea subscriber who never faced money deduction problem with Idea. They will suddenly activate any of their expensive services to your number in order to steal a fair amount of money from your account without your knowledge. If you do not notice, then it is very good, they will do it for the second time. If you ask them the reason of deduction, Idea people will definitely tell you have activated this service by yourself. They will tell, unless you activate this how such thing can happen to you. But be sure, it is not your fault. One day around 55 rupees was deducted from my account. Besides, time to time I get a small or medium amount of money deduction in my idea number.  

Sudden disconnection problem  

It is very usual, while you talk to others using idea network, you get sudden disconnection during your conversation. Besides, having poor networking connectivity, you need to dial several times from your idea mobile number to communicate your desired person or persons. But most remarkably, the Idea is as expensive as the other renowned network connection providers in consideration to call charges. But the difference is that unlike them, Idea is more expensive as you got sudden disconnection and network connectivity problem in the midway. 

Besides, Idea is known for its worst quality internet service. 

There is great chance of idea leaving this domain like Uninor within next few years. So be prepared for this.  Be very careful while you are going to have an Idea SIM. 

If you face any problem in Idea, don’t forget to share your experience with me, it will help me in my survey work.

Description: 
Website design is not an art, as a web designer has no liberty to express the way he thinks; rather he has to meet the goal of building a website and the demands of the website owner and its target customers.

Is Website Design an Art?

There is a sharp controversy among the artists, designers and experts: Is Good website design an art? To know it well, we should understand the difference between art and design? What are the characteristics that separate one from the other? Though, both the artists and designers create visual compositions, using best of their knowledge, experience and expertise, but the purpose of their doing so is absolutely different.   

Now let me discuss on these points:

1.     Good art inspires and evokes emotion. Good design motivates.

A good artist starts painting on a blank canvas and keeps doing so until he can draw a complete picture of his feeling and thinking, taking the elements that he thinks would definitely help him sharing his feeling with the audiences in the most effective ways. An artist’s intention is to build a strong emotional bond between him and his audience.

On the contrary, a designer’s liberty is restricted by pre-assigned message, idea, action, and the purpose of making the design. He has a fixed point to start and end it.  A designer’s job is to discover something with the elements that already exist and serve specific purposes. His purpose is to motivate the audience to let them feel a desire for doing something like buying a product or using a service.

2.     Good Art is interpreted. Good design is understood.

Art being a creation has no limitation. It cannot be circumscribed by any, definition, explanation and interpretation. Therefore people with different opinions, cultures, tastes, and levels of education explain an art-work in different ways and viewpoints.

Say for example, the great art-work Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci has been interpreted in many ways by the Romantics, Scientists and Skeptics. Scientists say that Mona Lisa’s smiling is nothing but an illusion created by peripheral vision. Romantics say Mona Lisa is in love. Skeptics say nothing happens.

In contrast, the purpose of designing is to convey a message and motivate audience to do something. So a designer’s sole purpose is to make people understand a message: what is the usefulness of his products or services.

3.     Good Art Is a Taste. Good Design Is an Opinion.

Art is a taste that results in various opinions. Say for example, a piece of art seems to one good or bad depending upon his taste, liking and disliking. If he is a champion of modern art, a piece of traditional art will seem to him age old and obsolete.

Design, too, depends upon taste. But the difference is that a design is considered successful and good only when it can fulfill its purpose of motivating people for doing something.

4.     Good Art Is a Talent. Good Design Is a Skill.

Art is a talent. It is a spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings and expressed through drawings, paintings, sculpting by an artist. It is a natural ability and inborn-quality. It requires skill as well as talent. It cannot be taught.

But design is a skill that can be taught. It can be improved and developed by hard practice.

Therefore, from the above discussion, we can easily come to the conclusion that design is not an art.

Web design being a significant part of design, it is not an art. An artist has the liberty to express the way he thinks. It may be a personal interpretation and subjective reaction of him. On the other hand, a designer has to reflect the way other people think. It is the objective-reflection of how his target people and his client will take. He is to fulfill the goal of building a website.

2.3 - July 23, 2011 (Saturday

Besides another important panda update in March 2012, states “over-optimization penalty" that does mean if you do more works (low quality) it will be penalized by Google.

Effects of Google Panda:

With the panda update, Google has improved their ability to detect scraper sites and banish them from the SERPs. This update has brought almost 12% changes in the search results.  As the consequence of panda update by Google, a rise in the rankings of social networking sites and news sites has been found. 

Consequences of Google Panda:

Lower the rank of "low-quality sites" or "thin sites"

Thin or duplicate content is treated as a low ROI tactic

It penalizes or permanently bans spammy and copied content

Time lapse updates make testing almost impossible

Link building is not a way to overcome a quality penalty

SEOs need to acquire deeper skill sets

If you are a webmaster or an SEO expert, you must know Google Panda as “Google Panda" is more a ranking factor than algorithm update”. Be out of your old SEO methods and accept Panda for better ranking.

Google Penguin Update: A Critical Study

When Webmasters, SEO Experts and Bloggers are still busy with finding out their strategies to be taken for Panda Update, another update in the name of “Penguin Update” has come up to frustrate the websites that practice bad SEO methods. Only a year has gone since Panda Update was introduced by Google on February 24, 2011, another update in the name of “Penguin Update” has been rolled out by Google on April 24, 2012 to bring down the ranking of all such websites that practice black hat SEO methods and violate existing quality guidelines for white hat. This latest-update, targets on webspam tactics (for over optimization) and poor quality content to make the internet a better and safer place. Webmasters prefer to call it a modified and improved version of Panda Update, as panda targets websites with low quality content, while penguin concentrates on the webspam tactics.  To be more precise, with these two updates Google’s stand is very clear, it wants to keep its search engine true and fair both methodically and qualitatively. While panda targets and fights with low quality content, penguin penalizes and demotes the low quality websites that practice tricky webspam tactics.  Side by side, while panda promotes quality websites, penguin penalizes the websites that use black hat SEO methods like keyword stuffing comment spamming (in blogs, articles), etc. In a word, it can be said that in the post penguin period, there is not only a great chance of dropping the web-traffic but also damaging the SERP ranking of a website permanently.

However, in this web scenario, you can ask me what the ways are to be taken to get out of its effects. I can say, if you follow the quality guidelines and practice white hat SEO methods, then you need not be stressful about it. You can stay safe and unaffected.

Why Cartoon Games Have been Popular among the People of All Age Groups

I think most of you will agree with me that cartoon games have been popular among the people of all age groups. They like playing cartoon games for the following reasons.

Now take a look at the reasons:

Escapism: Cartoon games with their jazzy and colorful looks and more endearing qualities attract people to engage in them. They help people escape from the real world of buffer competition, wariness and other difficulties. Now let me explain to make the matter more understandable for you. You may be in a somber mood either for a project failure or not getting promotion in your job. Or you may be rebuked by your senior or boos. In such a bitter mood, cartoon games can soothe your heart. What you only need to do here is just sit down on sofa in a relaxed manner and start paying games on your mobile or laptop. Besides, you may get stuck in traffic. What do you do then to be out of your boredom? I think you just switch on your mobile or laptop and start playing games to shun your dullness and monotony. Thus you look for and take the full opportunity of escapism.       

Indulgence: Cartoon games cater to excessive indulgence. If you are an adult, you can go crazy with them. You can get lost in the zany world of adventurous games like Alias 2, Alien Attack, and Matrix Pandemonium. Some carton games Like Looney Toons, Tom and Jerry, Scooby Doo allow you to be nostalgic. They can be a good reminiscent of your pleasurable past. They can attract your adulthood like your child hood.

Purgation (Catharsis): As crazy things can happen in carton games with no real consequences, both adults and children like to play these games. Kids can enjoy some retro hours and get the taste of real fighting. Adult can fulfill their dark or suppressed desires (that we lull in our Id or subconscious mind) through them. As they take people off the walls around them, people can pretend and indulge in killing their real enemies. Besides adults can gratify their dark desires through some specific games. They add emotions and thus pump out excessive emotions for the restoration of mental balance.

Education: Cartoon games offer people education. They aid people how to operate them and how to be ease with running various types of software. People can gain a good control over mouse and keyboards.

Refreshing Quality: Having refreshing qualities cartoon games can bring for you a refreshing mood and enthusiastic mind. When you work for hours in office or home you feel boring after a certain time. So instead of continuing it is better to leave the work for the time being, and go into some crazy activities like playing cartoon games or something like that to keep your mind refreshed. It will render you resume your work with a doubly charged mind potentiality.  

Sheer Fun: Some adults as well as kids play carton games for the sake of sheer fun and spend their leisure interestingly. There are some multiplayer games like Slice HD, Mirror’s Edge and Fruit Ninja HD that allow a group of people paying together and thus help in better group communication and boost skills.       

Die down Mental Stress: If you have a stressful mind, you can play cartoon games as they can to die down mental stress and help get rid of such condition.
