Munshi Premchand lived from 1880 to 1936 and can justly lay claimto the title of the best Hindi fiction writer ever. He was born on 31July 1880 in a small village, Lamhi, near Varanasi. His parents namedhim Dhanpat Rai. He started writing at a young age. Initially, hewrote in Urdu. Later, he wrote only in Hindi.
Munshi Premchand was the son of a postal clerk. He lost his motherwhen he was very young. Just 7 years. And his at the age of 14, helost his father. With his father's demise, young Premchand took overthe responsibility of earning bread for the family. In the face ofgreat economic hardship, he matriculated. He then found employment asa schoolmaster in small village schools.
While working, Premchand continued his studies and completed hisF.A. (parallel to A-levels) and his B.A. He was keen on doing hisMasters in Literature, but circumstances in life prevented him fromdoing so.
In 1921, influenced by Mahatma Gandhi's call to leave Governmentjobs, Premchand resigned from his schoolmaster's job. He was in direeconomic straits. Yet, he gave up his 23 year old secure iflow-paying Government job. In this decision, his wife willinglysupported him.
For a few months after that, he worked for a private school inKanpur. He could not keep his job, because he was too principled andwas the victim of office politics. He resigned from there and leftfor Varanasi where he taught at the Kashi Vidyapitha for a fewmonths, and edited 'Maryada'. He then left for Lucknow where heedited 'Madhuri'. Both 'Maryada' and 'Madhuri' were literarymagazines with very low circulation and an uncertain future.
In a few years, he shifted back to Varanasi to launch his ownliterary magazine, 'Hans'. Sometime later, he launched 'Jagaran' aswell. But both magazines were loss-making enterprises. At a certainpoint in time Premchand was so heavily in debt because of editingthese magazines, he had to wind up operations and shift baggage toMumbai.
He had come to Mumbai to write for the Hindi film industry. Buthere he was constantly being asked to compromise on his storyline andthe integrity of his characters to suit the whims of film producers.Premchand refused to make such manipulations, which would hurt theflow of his story. Hence, deeply disappointed, he made his way backto Varanasi, still struggling against the onset of bankruptcy.
While in Mumbai, Premchand had fallen ill and soon after gettingback to Varanasi, he died of ascitis on 8 October, 1936.
He was given the highest accolade of his time, when he wasreferred to as "Upanyas Samrat". He wrote novels, short stories,essays and children's fiction. All that he wrote, has stood the testof time, and nearly seventy after his death, Premchand is still oneof India's best-read authors. His novels, in particular Godan,Nirmala and Ghaban; are hugely popular. His short stories, broughttogether under the title Mansarovar enjoy tremendous enthusiasmamongst readers until date.
Premchand has been translated in many languages, there are 100s ofPh.D.s awarded on his works every year. There is no University inIndia and abroad, where Hindi literature is taught and Premchand isnot an important part of the syllabus.
Premchand wrote in a very direct and simple style, and his wordsmade their own magic. His protagonists were always the people heobserved around him. His knowledge of the human psychology, and hisappreciation of the ironies of life made him a stellar writer.
In keeping with his clean-cut style and lucid manner, readingPremchand is a great pleasure! His prose is precise, his descriptionssuccinct.
Premchand lived in an era of great social turmoil for India. Hesaw traditional village independence being destroyed by thecolonisers. He saw how the traditional system of the Indian UndividedFamily was falling apart with the pressures of increasedcentralisation of jobs in urban centres. He also noted the fallout oflarge-scale urbanisation and the consequent materialistic andacquisitional tendencies it triggered off. His stories and novelfaithfully record and analyse these tendencies through the trials andtribulations of his protagonists.
Premchand observed keenly the psychology of a child, brought up inpoverty. In his short story Eidgah, the hero, a small boy from a poorfamily, goes with his relatively well-to-do friends. He has a verysmall amount of money to spare. Instead of blowing it on fun andtoys, he buys a "chimta" for his old grandmother, who used to burnher fingers on the hot iron "tava".
His novel "Godan" tells the story of a poor man, bound by thesociety, exploited by the privileged class and his soul-destroyingtravails. His protagonists are often exploited, but never unjustthemselves, and retain their humanity. The badi bahuria, in Bade GharKi Bahu, despite longing to eat a halfway decent meal, gives it tothe postman, who is actually the bearer of bad news. When the postmantries to decline, she says that she will eat some bathua saag andmanage.
Each novel, each story of Premchand reassures us that humanity isalive and well. That circumstances may be grim, but there is a godsomewhere, and things are not so bad as they may seem. Premchand seesgoodness in every human being, and hence describes people aptly. Themost mean and vicious character will suffer the occasional qualm ofconscience. And the most naive character is not without heroism. Theprotagonist of Ghaban is out to impress his newly wed wife. His taleof plight is told with understanding and empathy. The reader feels apart of Premchand's stories. All his fictional characters are real.They are living and breathing. Not just, blank ink on whitepaper.
So come, be a part of the experience. Read Munshi Premchand todiscover perceptive yet simple writing. Lucid style. Prose writing atits very best.
Had Premchand been born in America or Europe, he would havecertainly won the Nobel Prize for Literature and a knighthoodtoo!
I am proud to state that we had the privilege of being the firstpublishers of what is perhaps the greatest novel ever written inHindi - Godan.

FOUR THINGS YOU PROBABLY NEVER KNEW YOUR MOBILE PHONE COULD DO
There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out the things that you can do with it:
FIRST Emergency
The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112. If you find yourself out of the coverage area of your mobile; network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked. Try it out.
SECOND have you locked your keys in the car?
Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their mobile phone from your cell phone.
Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. This saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other 'remote' for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).
THIRD Hidden Battery Power
Imagine your mobile battery is very low. To activate, press the keys *3370# Your mobile will restart with this reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your mobile next time.
FOURTH How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?
To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 #
A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. When your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.

SARDARJI AND PAKISTANI JOKE
A Pakistani man, a lady and a Sardarji were traveling in a train one time. The train was going through a long tunnel and while in the dark suddenly there is a sound of a big kiss, which is followed by the sound of a slap.
When the train comes out of the tunnel, everyone sees that the Pakistani guys cheek is swollen red.
Now, the Pakistani looks around confused and thinks," That sardarji must have tried to kiss the lady and she slapped me instead of him."
The lady wonders, "That Pakistani guy must have been trying to kiss me and must have kissed the sardarji by mistake!"
And our dear & wicked Sardarji is thinking, "I hope we run into another tunnel so I can make another kissing sound and slap the damn Pakistani!"
When the train comes out of the tunnel, everyone sees that the Pakistani guys cheek is swollen red.

Letter to bill gates by banta singh
Dear Mr Bill Gates,
This letter is from Banta Singh. We have
bought a computer for
our home and we found problems, which I want to bring
to your notice.
After connecting to internet we planned to open e-mail
account and whenever
we fill the form in Hotmail in the password column,
only ****** appears,
but
in the rest of the fields whatever we typed appears,
but we face this
problem only in password field. We checked with
hardware vendor Santa Singh
and he said that there is no problem in keyboard.
Because of this we open
the e-mail account with password *****. I request you
to check this as we
ourselves do not know what the password is.
We are unable to enter anything after we click the
shut down button.
There is a button 'start' but there is no stop button.
We request you to
check this.
We find there is 'Run' in the menu. One of my friend
clicked 'run' has ran
upto Amritsar! So, we request you to change that to
sit so that we can
click
that by sitting.
One doubt is that any 're-scooter' available in
system? As I find only
're-cycle', but I own a scooter at my home.
Also there is 'Find' button but it is not working
properly. My wife lost
the
door key and we tried a lot for tracing the key with
this 'find', but
unable
to trace. Is it a bug??
Thanks,
Banta Singh

HOW TO ADD YOUTUBE VIDEO IN YOUR BLOG
YouTube has all sorts of interesting, funny, silly, and provocative content. One of the most appealing things about YouTube is how easy it is to share this content with others. You can easily embed any video on YouTube into your own blog. Here's how you do it.
First, go to YouTube and find a video that you like. It doesn't have to be a video that you created.
Next, look for the box directly to the right of the video. Not only does this box let you subscribe to videos, it also gives you the code for embedding video. Go to the line marked Embed at the bottom of this box. Click inside the code box next to the word Embed. All of the code text should automatically be highlighted. If not, you'll need to select it. Copy this code. You can copy by right-clicking on your mouse and selecting copy from the drop-down menu.
Next, you need to paste this code into your blog. For this tutorial, I will use Blogger, which is a free blogging service from Google.
Log into your Blogger account and compose a new message for your blog. Select the edit HTML tab, and paste the code you copied from YouTube. It is important to make sure you have the HTML tab selected first. You can paste the code by right-clicking and selecting paste from the drop-down menu
That's it. Press the post button and then preview your blog, to make sure everything works. When readers look at your blog, they'll see the embedded video, and they can click on the play button in the center to view the video.
It is possible to modify the HTML code so that the video automatically plays as soon as it is loaded, instead of making the reader click. However, I don't recommend this. It is rude to readers who don't expect video, and it can really drag on users who have slow connections.

What is meant by mounting a drive?
Before your computer can use any kind of storage device (such as a hard drive, CD-ROM, or network share), you or your operating system must make it accessible through the computer's file system. This process is called mounting. You can access only files on mounted media.
Formats and mounting
Your computer stores data in specific, structured file formats. The format used depends on how your operating system is configured, but they all fulfill the same purpose. A file format is a specially coded template written on a piece of media (such as a disk or CD-ROM). Your computer reads the format to determine many things about the media: where data begins and ends, where data can be written, and how to read data that has already been written. If your computer does not recognize the file format on a piece of media, your computer will return errors. If you force your computer to work with media in a corrupted or unrecognized format, your computer will write data incorrectly, possibly rendering unrecoverable all the files stored on the media.
Mounting ensures that your computer recognizes the media's format, and instructs your computer to incorporate the media's filesystem into your local filesystem. If your computer cannot recognize the media format, the device cannot be mounted. When media is successfully mounted, your computer creates a mount point, a locally available link through which you access an external device. In Windows or Mac OS X, the mount point is represented by a picture of a CD-ROM or floppy disk, or other icon. In Unix or Linux, the mount point is a directory. Most operating systems handle mounting and unmounting for you.
