nice joke

Once in America a plane crashed, only a monkey who was traveling in the plane was left alive. Fortunately the monkey was intelligent enough to understand our language and reply in actions. The officials went to see the monkey in the hospital and had a talk with the monkey.

 

Officer: "When the plane took off what were the travelers doing?"

 Monkey: "Tying their belts"

 Officer: "What were the airhostesses doing?"

 Monkey: "Saying Hello! Good morning!"

 Officer: "What were the pilots doing?"

  Monkey: "Checking the system"

 Officer: "What were you doing?"

 Monkey: "Looking for my people"

  Officer: "After 10' minutes what were the travelers doing?"

 Monkey: "Having beverages and snacks"

 Officer: "What were the airhostesses doing?"

  Monkey: "Serving the travelers"

 Officer: "What were the Pilots doing?"

 Monkey: "Handling the steering"

 Officer: "What were you doing?"

 Monkey: "Eating & throwing"

 Officer: "After 30 minutes what were the travelers doing?"

 Monkey: "Some were sleeping and some were reading"

 Officer: "What were the airhostesses doing?"

  Monkey: "Make up"

 Officer: "What were the pilots doing?"

 Monkey: "Handling the steering"

 Officer: "What were you doing?"

 Monkey: "Nothing"

 Officer: "Just before plane crash what were the travelers doing?"

Monkey: "All were sleeping"

  Officer: "What were the pilots doing?"

 Monkey: "Handling the air hostess"

 Officer: What were you doing?

  Monkey: Handling the steering!!!!!

Top Ten tips to increase the concentration

I liked this tips which I found on net.

 

1. Start assignments with some curiosity about the material and a positive attitude toward learning.

2. Designate a place where you go only to study. Use proper lighting.

3. Identify your distractions. Find ways to decrease them or to postpone them until study breaks (e.g., taking the phone off the hook, turning off instant messenger).

4. Decrease noises around you while studying. If you need some background music it should be soft. Keep the TV off.

5. Use "active study" techniques: sit straight in a chair at a desk, start out with questions about the material, outline chapters, underline key phrases after reading a section, write notes in margins, ask yourself what you have learned.

6. Divide your work into smaller manageable tasks that can be completed in a short period of time. Push yourself to complete one small task, then move on to the next task. Focus on one small task at a time.

7. Use times of peak alertness for studying difficult or less interesting topics. When you are tired or hungry concentration will be lowered.

8. When your mind starts to wander come up with some cue words to say to yourself (e.g., "Focus." "Get back on task.") to focus your concentration again.

9. Take breaks when you have completed tasks or when you feel concentration has decreased. Breaks should be approximately 10-15 minutes.

10. If you have other assignments or issues on your mind write them down on a "to do" list or take a small step to deal with them. Then get back to focusing on the task at hand

JUST 15 YEARS AGO!!!  --  Before the computer age,

 

An APPLICATION was for employment.

A PROGRAMME was a television show.

WINDOWS were something you hated to clean.

A KEYBOARD was a piano.

MEMORY was something you lost with age.

A CD was a bank account.

COMPRESS was something you did to garbage.

LOG ON was adding wood to a fire.

A HARD DRIVE was a long trip on the road.

A MOUSE PAD was where a mouse lived.

CUT you did with scissors.

PASTE you did with glue.

A WEB was a spider's home.

And a VIRUS was associated to flu!!!!!

A dog that talks

A salesman is driving around in Indiana and he sees a big sign  in front of a  house on country roads.

 

"For Sale a dog that talks".  He stops, rings the bell and the  owner tells him the dog is  in the backyard. The guy goes into the backyard and  sees a Labrador  retriever sitting there.

 

"You talk?" he asks the dog.

 

"Yep," the Lab replies.

 

"So, what's your life story?" he inquired further.

 

The dog looks up and says, "Well, I discovered that  I could talk when I was  pretty young. I wanted to help the government, so I  told the CIA about my  gift, and in no time at all they had me jetting from  country to country,  sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders,  because no one figured a dog  would be eavesdropping. I was one of their most valuable spies for eight  years running."

 

"But the jetting around really tired me out, and I  knew I wasn't getting any  younger so I decided to settle down. I signed up for  a job at the airport to  do some undercover security wandering near suspicious characters and  listening in. I uncovered some incredible dealings  and was awarded a batch  of medals."

 

"I then got married to a beautiful bitch and fathered a vast mass of puppies, and now I'm  just retired."

 

The salesman is amazed. He goes back in and asks the  owner what he wants for the  dog.

 

"Ten dollars," the guy says.

 

"Ten dollars? This dog is amazing. Why on earth are  you selling him so cheap?"

 

"Because he's a damn liar. That son of a bitch never did any of  stuff he says he did."
