i am leaving on a jet plane

i am leaving on a jet plane

All my bags are packed I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin' it's early morn
The taxi's waitin' he's blowin' his horn
Already I'm so lonesome I could die

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

There's so many times I've let you down
So many times I've played around
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
Every place I go, I'll think of you
Every song I sing, I'll sing for you
When I come back, I'll bring your wedding ring

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

Guitar Solo

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time let me kiss you
Close your eyes I'll be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When I won't have to leave alone
About the times, I won't have to say

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh baby, I hate to go

Cause I'm leavin' on a jet plane
Don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

While you Sleep

Good rest and sound sleep is very important... if u don't sleep well,

The toxins in your body will accumulate... Affecting your health and your mood...

The main causes of liver damage are:
1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are the main cause..
2. Not urinating in the morning.
3. Too much eating.
4. Skipping breakfast.
5. Consuming too much medication.
6. Consuming too much preservatives, additives, food coloring, and artificial sweetener.
7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil. As much as possible reduce cooking oil use when frying, which includes even the best

Cooking oils like olive oil. Do not consume fried foods when you are tired, except if the body is very fit.
8. Consuming overly done foods also add to the burden of liver. Veggies should be eaten raw or cooked 3-5 parts. Fried

Veggies should be finished in one sitting, do not store.

We have to adopt a good daily lifestyle and eating habits. Maintaining good eating habits is very important for our body to absorb and get rid of unnecessary chemicals.

Because….

Evening 9 - 11pm: is the time for eliminating unnecessary/ toxic chemicals (de- toxification) from the antibody system (lymph nodes). This time duration should be spent by relaxing or listening to music. If during this time a housewife is still in a un relaxed state such as washing the dishes or monitoring children doing their homework, this will have a negative impact on her health.

Night at 11pm - 1am: The de-toxification process in the liver, and ideally should be done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 1 - 3am: de-toxification process in the gall, also ideally done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 3 - 5am: de-toxification in the lungs. Therefore there will sometimes be a severe cough for cough sufferers during this time. Since the de-toxification process had reached the respiratory tract, there is no need to take cough medicine so as not to interfere with toxin removal process.


Morning 5 - 7am: de-toxification in the colon, you should empty your bowel.

Morning 7 - 9am: Absorption of nutrients in the small intestine, you should be having breakfast at this time. Breakfast should be earlier, before 6:30am, for those who are sick. Breakfast before 7:30am is very beneficial to those wanting to stay fit. Those who always skip breakfast, they should change their habits, and it is still better to eat breakfast late until 9 -10am rather than no meal at all. Sleeping so late and waking up too late will disrupt the process of removing unnecessary chemicals.

Midnight to 4am is the time when the bone marrow produces blood.

Therefore, have a good sleep and don't sleep late.

Sharing Is Caring!

My India - A real eye-opener!

A real eye-opener!
We live in a nation ,

· Where Pizza reaches home faster than Ambulance & police,
· Where you get car loan @ 5% and education loan @ 12%,
· Where rice is Rs 40/- per kg but mobile-sim card is free,
· Where a millionaire can buy a cricket team instead of donating the money to any charity,
· Where the footwear, we wear, is sold in AC showrooms, but vegetables, that we eat, are sold on footpath,
· Where everybody wants to be famous but nobody wants to follow the path to be famous,
· Where we make lemon juices with artificial flavors and dish wash liquids with real lemon.
· Where people standing at tea stall reading an article about child labour from a newspaper and say,"yaar bachhon se kaam karvane wale ko to phansi par chadha dena chahiye" and then they shout "Oye chhotu 2 chaii laao....."

Bajaj car to be world's cheapest

Bajaj car to be world's cheapest

Bajaj's ultra-low cost car being manufactured jointly with Renault and Nissan promises to give hot chase to the Tata Nano. On Monday, Rajiv Bajaj (BAJAJAUTO.NS : 2101.05 0), MD, Bajaj Auto confirmed the $2,500 (Rs 1.1 lakh) price tag for the car, announced first by Renault chairman & CEO Carlos Ghosn at the company's shareholders' meet late last week. The Renault announcement comes a few days after it pulled out of its loss-making Logan venture with Mahindra & Mahindra.

The Bajaj car will be cheaper than the Nano, which comes at Rs 1.23 lakh-1.72 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi ). After the launch of Tata Nano, the race for the No.2 position in the ultra-low cost car segment is under way in India , which as emerged as the Mecca of this segment. However, other automakers' plans to enter this segment are still on the drawing board.

At Renault meeting, Ghosn said: "In India , Renault and Nissan are developing an ultra-low-cost vehicle with the Bajaj group, benefiting from its expertise in light vehicles and knowledge of the Indian market." He reiterated the affordability of the vehicle for the Indian market by citing the targeted low price tag.

"We are combining our strengths with Nissan, notably in India , Russia , Brazil and Mexico ," Ghosn said. "The alliance product strategy has been finalised in India and Russia , and Renault and Nissan will pool their production capacities and platforms there to fully deliver on these developments," he added.
The car was initially scheduled to hit the market this year, but has been postponed to 2012. Bajaj Auto displayed the prototype of the small car at the 2008 Auto Expo. However, the three partners were stuck at various levels of branding and engineering the car till last year. According to industry observers, the project also got delayed as partners were stuck on pricing issues as well. While Renault wanted a low-cost car, Bajaj was keen on a car that would sport high mileage and low maintenance.

It was during his India visit that Ghosn finally announced the finalisation of the project. "As per the agreement, the design, engineering, sourcing and manufacturing will be handled by Bajaj Auto, while marketing and selling will be (done) by Renault-Nissan Alliance," he said. But he had declined to comment on the pricing of the car.
Officials from the alliance have said the car will be smaller than Maruti Suzuki's Alto, which is the biggest selling model in India .

In March, Collin Dodge, executive vice-president, Nissan Motor had said: "It is over two years that Bajaj is trying to produce the car. The physics of it is very difficult. We have not yet found a solution as there are a lot of engineering solutions required." Nissan is also in talks with Hinduja group company Ashok Leyland (ASHOKLEY.NS : 62.35 -0.1) to develop a small car for the global market that could be priced around $4,500-5,000.
"We have a formal agreement with Ashok Leyland for making light commercial vehicles in India . In addition, we also use Ashok Leyland's engineering services for various purposes. At the moment, we are talking to them and many other partners in China , Indonesia ...for a price centric vehicle," Nissan Motor Co executive vice-president Collin Dodge had said at the Geneva Motor Show in March.


Greener Nano to cost a tad more

It will probably go down as one of the most famous promises not kept, in corporate India's factfile. The world's cheapest car, Tata Nano, is set to become a little less cheap later this month when the comapny upgrades it to meet the Bharat Stage-IV emission norm, despite the company's promise of price protection for the first one lakh buyers of the car. Till April 30, Tata had sold only 33,875 units of the car. As per the tentative price list available with some dealers, the Nano's price will rise in a range of Rs 1,979 to Rs 2,133 (ex-showroom) across variants. The on-road price is expected to rise by Rs 5,000-7,000. The dealers have been told to educate the cutomers about the change in regulations that are forcing the company to hike the Nano's price, even if it goes against the avowed price protection for 1 lakh customers. "Now that emission norms in the country include BS-IV for 13 cities and BS-III for the rest of the country, the Tata Nano will be available in both BS-IV and BS-III, as is applicable," the company said in response to a questionnaire from the Hindustan Times. "The delivery of BS-IV Nanos is yet to begin, and is on the anvil. Should there be a price change for BS-IV Nanos, the company will intimate respective owners. In any case, 75% of Nano's demand is in non-Metros," the statement said. The first BS IV car is expected to be despatched to dealerships in the 13 cities where the new norms are in force - including Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Chennai and Kolkata - by the middle of this month.
"The price increase is something that does not benefit the company but is a compulsion for the change in regulation," said a dealer in Delhi. "Every other car has seen its price go up and so will Nano. If a customer does not want to pay, we will have no other option but to cancel his booking."

Hi Shankar.



If you really want to find bottlenecks you need to come out of the Functional and Manual testing mindset.



Performance is completely a different set of ballgame with different rules and with different mindset.



Here are a few links that might get you started, but as James mentioned you need to shadow the performance specialist or talk to the Tech Arch in having a deeper understanding of the performance issues of your systems.

All the best.

Hi James,



I am working as a Manual tester for a front end system, which interacts with various back end system (database,partner system)



whenever a transaction is done by the user it sends a message to the partner system in parallel it update its database,

transaction is done only when its conformed in the partner system within the specified time interval.



Here we used MQ to send and receive message between partner system.



Bottleneck here are



Partner system fails to respond within the specified time frame,

Request may not reach the partner system due to MQ issue,

Our system fails to send the message/s to the partner system.
