How do Muslims in India view Pakistan?

Ok I will answer this as I am Muslim and from India.

Let me be honest. We have our own set of problems here but do not face discrimination in everyday life.

As a Muslim, I can aspire to be the prime minister of India one day. I can aspire to become a cricketer, a businessman. Anything I want to be. I know as long as I educate myself and pursue my dream I will be able to succeed.

India has tried and been successful on many levels with being a secular state. Sure we have our own problems but who doesn't?

Today I have a job, a family, I live in a good home in a society where mainly Hindus reside but have never felt like they have tried to push me out of any of the activities they are doing.

I will also say that all kinds of Muslims are able to exists in peace in India which is almost impossible to happen in Pakistan now a days. We are proud to be from India - a secular state where all kinds of religions exist in peace and always have.

Facebook like button on blogger...:):)

This Tutorial will help you in adding a Facebook Like Button For Blogger. Facebook has come up with a new set of Social plugins which enable you to provide engaging social experiences to your users with just a line of HTML. The Facebook Like Button is One of them. You can see a demo of the like button on this page. The Facebook like button will allow your readers to quickly share your posts with their Facebook Friends. You can also get to know how many people liked your Blog Post .This tutorial will teach you to add a Facebook Like button for Blogger

How to Add the Facebook Like Button Below every Post

1. First Generate the Facebook code using the options below. (Code will be updated with these details)

<div>
<b:if cond='data:post.isFirstPost'> 
<script>(function(d){
  var js, id = 'facebook-jssdk'; if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
  js = d.createElement('script'); js.id = id; js.async = true;
  js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1";
  d.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(js);
}(document));</script>
</b:if> 
<fb:like expr:href="data:post.canonicalUrl" layout='standard' send='true' show_faces='false' font="arial" action="like" colorscheme="light"></fb:like>
</div>

2. Copy the Above code. Login to your Blogger Account and go to Design > Edit HTMLand click on the check box which says “Expand Widget Templates”

3. Look for <data:post.body/> and immediately below that place the copied code.

4.Next you have to add the fb namespace to your template tag.Your template should have the specification for the fb tag that you have used. The following namespace declaration will take care of that. To declare the namespace, find

<html

and change it to

<html xmlns:fb="https://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml"

The following screenshot will help you out.

This is necessary for all FBML widgets using the fb tag. So if you have already added the namespace while adding some other FB plugin, then you can skip this.

4. Now Save the template and you should see the Like Button near each of your posts. You are done :)

Do you feel that the Like Button is boring and not so likable? – Then checkout theFacebook Like box, a styled version of the Like Button which would definitely bring you more “Likes” Also Check out :

Are women better managers than men?

Some survey which I recently read say that women are better managers than men.If we are talking about home then surely answer of this question will be yes. Because we see in home how well they manage.But if we talk about open world than I may not be agree with you.
Any how every gender has some strengths and weakness.For example women are very emotional and cannot handle failure.At the other hand men are stronger and tough they can fight back after any failure.Women can take wrong decisions in difficulties or failures because of their emotional behaviors. But we see how women are good in caring for others.On the other side men are having problem with their attitude. women can negotiate easily compare to men.
My first point why women are good in home.Its all depends on practice.Whatever we practice we will become good managers in them.For example a good cricket player can easily decide which ball to hit and which to leave.More we practice more we make good decisions.Usually women do home related things or I should say they built our home.They make our house (A building) to home.So no doubt they are good managers in home related decisions.If we give chance to them in open world may be they can also be a better manager.After all its not about gender its about management skills.
My conclusion on this topic is we can not decide which gender is good in managing.There are several examples where men are better managers than women and vice-versa. Every gender has their strengths and weakness.If we give training of management then any gender male or female can be a better manager.
After all its all about management skills not about gender.
