A funny accounting story

A young accountant often asked his boss for advice in writing journal entries.
The boss would always open his desk drawer, look at something for a moment and
then tell the young accountant how to make the correct journal entry. This went
on for many years. Finally the old accountant was ready to retire. The younger
accountant asked the old man, "I don't know what I'm going to do without you.
Whenever I've had a question you always knew the answer. What will I do when
you're gone? And what's in your desk drawer? Every time I ask for advice you
look in there?" The old accountant took the younger one into his office and opened
his desk drawer. There was a 3" x 5" index card.
It said: "Debits on the Left, Credits on the Right"

Don't get disheartened for being last

A bus carrying only ugly people is involved in acrash, and everyone on the bus dies.They go to Heaven.
Because of the grief they havesuffered, God decides to grant them one wish each,before they enter Paradise.

They're all lined up, and God asks the first one whattheir wish is.The person answers, "I want to be beautiful," and soGod snaps His fingers, and it is done.
The second one in line sees this and says "I want tobe beautiful too."Another snap of His fingers and the wish is granted.This goes on for a while, but when God is halfway downthe line, the last person in line starts laughing.
When there are only ten people left, this man isrolling on the floor, laughing . Finally, God gets to the end of the line and asks the laughing one what his wish will be.
The man eventually catches his breath, and says: "Makethem all ugly again".

Moral - Don't get disheartened for being last, as youcan still change others lives being last

Contact Lenses

Please pass this to all your friends, to those who wear contact lenses,remove them when you have or attend a BBQ party or whatsoever that got to do withflames... I heard a horrible true story about contact lenses.... Ithappened to a 21 year old guy, he wore a pair of contact lenses during a barbecueparty. While, he was barbecuing, he stared at the fire charcoals. After afew seconds, he started to scream for help and moved rapidly, jumping upand down. No one in the party knew why... When he arrived at the Hospital, thedoctor said he'll be blind permanently courtesy of the contact lenses thathe had worn. Contact lenses are made by plastics, and the heat from thecharcoal melted his contact lenses. So, tell all your friends.....

DO NOT WEAR CONTACT LENSES WHERE OVERHEAT AND FLAMES ARE CONCERNED

Some Facts on F1 Racing Cars

Here are some interesting facts about Formula 1
01. An F1 car is made up of 80,000 components, if it were assembled 99.9% correctly, it would still start the race with 80 things wrong!

02. Formula 1 cars have over a kilometre of cable, linked to about 100 sensors and actuators which monitor and control many parts of the car.

03. An F1 car can go from 0 to 160 kph AND back to 0 in FOUR seconds !!!!!!!

04. F1 car engines last only for about 2 hours of racing mostly before blowing up on the other hand we expect our engines to last us for a decent 20yrs on an average and they quite faithfully DO....thats the extent to which the engines r pushed to perform...

05. When an F1 driver hits the brakes on his car he experiences retardation or deceleration comparable to a regular car driving through a BRICK wall at 300kmph !!!

06. An average F1 driver looses about 4kgs of weight after just one race due to the prolonged exposure to high G forces and temperatures for little over an hour (Yeah thats right!!!)

07. At 550kg a F1 car is less than half the weight of a Mini.

08. In an F1 car the engine typically revs upto 18000 rpm,(the piston travelling up and down 300 times a second!!) wheres cars like the palio, maruti 800,indica rev only upto 6000 rpm at max. Thats 3 times slower.

09. The brake discs in an F1 car have an operating temperature of approx 1000 degees Centigrade and they attain that temp while braking before almost every turn...that is why they r not made of steel but of carbon fibre which is much more harder and resistant to wear and tear and most of all has a higher melting point.

10. If a water hose were to blow off, the complete cooling system would empty in just over a second.

11. Gear cogs or ratios are used only for one race, and are replaced regularly to prevent failure, as they are subjected to very high degrees of stress.

12. The fit in the cockpit is so tight that the steering wheel must be removed for the driver to get in or out of the car. A small latch behind the wheel releases it from the column. Levers or paddles for changing gear are located on the back of the wheel. So no gearstick! The clutch levers are also on the steering wheel, located below the gear paddles.
13. To give you an idea of just how important aerodynamic design and added downforce can be, small planes can take off at slower speeds than F1 cars travel on the track.

14. Without aerodynamic downforce, high-performance racing cars have sufficient power to produce wheel spin and loss of control at 160 kph. They usually race at over 300 kph.

15. The amount of aerodynamic downforce produced by the front and rear wings and the car underbody is amazing. Once the car is travelling over 160 kph, an F1 car can generate enough downforce to equal it's own weight. That means it could actually hold itself to the CEILING of a tunnel and drive UPSIDE down!

16. In a street course race like the monaco grand prix, the downforce provides enough suction to lift manhole covers. Before the race all of the manhole covers on the streets have to be welded down to prevent this from happening!

17. The refuelers used in F1 can supply 12 litres of fuel per second. This means it would take just 4 seconds to fill the tank of an average 50 litre family car.They use the same refueling rigs used on US military helicopters today.

18. TOP F1 pit crews can refuel and change tyres in around 3 seconds.

19. Race car tyres don't have air in them like normal car tyres. Most racing tyres have nitrogen in the tyres because nitrogen has a more consistent pressure compared to normal air. Air typically contains varying amounts of water vapour in it, which affects its expansion and contraction as a function of temperature, making the tyre pressure unpredictable.

20. During the race the tyres lose weight! Each tyre loses about 0.5 kg in weight due to wear.


21. Normal tyres last 60 000 - 100 000 km. Racing tyres are designed to last 90 - 120 km (That's Khandala and back).

22. A dry-weather F1 tyre reaches peak operating performance (best grip) when tread temperature is between 900C and 1200C.(Water boils boils at 100C remember) At top speed, F1 tyres rotate 50 times a second

Todays Joke

How do you identify Sardar in a class room?


He is the only student erases his note book, when the teacher rubs the black-board .

Patience is very important in life.

A single guy decides life would be more fun if he had a pet. He Went to the pet store and told the owner that he wanted to buy an unusual pet.

After some discussion, he finally bought a centipede (100-legged Bug), which came in a little white box to use for its house. He took the box back home, found a good location for the box, and decided he would start off by taking his new pet to church with him.

He asked the centipede in the box, "Would you like to go to church with me today? We will have a good time."

But there was no answer from his new pet. This bothered him a bit, so he waited a few minutes and then asked him again, "How about going to church with me and receive blessings?"

But again, there was no answer from his new friend and pet. He waited a few minutes more, thinking about the situation.

He decided to ask him one more time. This time putting his face up against the centipede's house and shouting, "Hey, in there! Would you like to go to church with me and learn about the Lord?"

A little teeny voice came out of the box... "I heard you the first time! I'm putting on my shoes."
Patience is very important in life.

Wireless Communication

After digging to a depth of 100m last year, Russian scientists found traces of copper wiring dating back 1000 years, and came to the conclusion that their ancestors already had a telephone network one thousand years ago.So as not to be outdone, in the weeks that followed, American scientists dug 200m, and headlines in the US newspapers read:- "US scientists have found traces of 2000 year old optical fibres, and have concluded that their ancestors already had advanced high-tech digital telephone 1000 years earlier than the Russians"

One week later, the Indian press reported the following:- " After digging as deep as 500m, Indian scientists have found absolutely nothing. They have concluded that 5000 years ago, their ancestors were already using wireless technology".

Five More Minutes

Five More Minutes
While at the park one day, a woman sat down next to a man on a bench
near a playground. "That's my son over there," she said, pointing to a
little
boy in a red sweater who was gliding down the slide. "He's a fine looking
boy," the man said. "That's my son on the swing in the blue sweater." Then,
looking at his watch, he called to his son. "What do you say we go,
Todd?" Todd pleaded, "Just five more minutes, Dad. Please? Just five more
minutes." The man nodded and Todd continued to swing to his heart's
content.
Minutes passed and the father stood and called again to his son. "Time to
go
now?" Again Todd pleaded, "Five more minutes, Dad. Just five more minutes."
The man smiled and said, "O.K." "My, you certainly are a patient father,"
the woman responded. The man smiled and then said, "My older son Tommy was
killed by a drunk driver last year while he was riding his bike near
here. I never spent much time with Tommy and now I'd give anything for just
five more minutes with him. I've vowed not to make the same mistake with
Todd. He thinks he has five more minutes to swing. The truth is, I get Five
more
minutes to watch him play."
Life is all about making priorities, what
are your priorities? Give someone you love 5 more minutes of your time
today.
