Cathedral Made Of Human Remains - Kutna Hora -Czech Republic

Truth is sometimes stranger than fiction. But how about the story of this "Boney Church" about 70 kilometers east the capital of the Czech Republic , Prague , lies a small town called Sedlec.
As a result the church came to be regarded as more sacred and bowed into a current funeral whitehead. By 1318, more than 30,000 bodies were hidden there and by 1511, it had become crucial to subtract the older bones to make place for the new ones. These later became the objects for the deathly creations.


In 1870 a citizen woodcarver was hired by the Duke of Shwartzenberg to deck the inside of the church with the creature ruins (approximately 40,000 sets of human bones).


It might have been an ordinary enough town, if not for its extraordinary church.The inside of this church is deckd with artworks made of real human bones. The story begins in 1218, when a certain Abbot Henry made a pilgrimage to the holy land and brought back a jar chubby of filled with soil from graveyard, which he spread over the church.


When I saw the photo given to me thru contact, it gives me a sinister ambiance at the outset. After intently looking at the photos, I can't help but be amazed on what have become of the "human bones".

WAMP Server - Windows Apache MySQL PHP - Fixing Errors

THIS TROUBLE SHOOTING PAGE IS ISSUED ON DEMAND BY WAMP SERVER USERS.
I have installed the WAMP server in order to make my home PC a Web Server so that I can host websites or create an online store using the full capacity of my Hard Disk of 500 GB without any obligation to any hosting company. However, I have downloaded the best open source server software WAMP from the author's site and installed three-in-one modules included in WAMP namely Apache, MySQL and PHP, which are required to make my PC a Public Web Server . But after installing the software I found errors and went on googling spending hours and days, but without success. Then I tried with little information collected from the web wih my logics, at last I could able to solve all my issues, which I hope will help someone who is in trouble with WAMP Errors.

The error is like the one given below:
"Your configuration file contains settings (root with no password) that correspond to the default MySQL privileged account. Your MySQL server is running with this default, is open to intrusion, and you really should fix this security hole."

You may fix this error with few steps as given below:

1. Go to phpmyadmin;
2. Click on the database you want to change the password to from the left side of the screen
3. Click on "privileges" menu on the top
4. Click on the "edit privileges" icon on the right of the root user for localhost in 'Action' column.
5. Go to the "change password" block
6. Tick the "password" radio button
7. Enter password and re-type that password. Don't make any changes in the 'Generate Password' button.
8. Click "go" in the next line of this box
10. Now open a MySql Console from the WAMPSERVER menu
11. You may see a prompt asking for a password – just hit the return since you don't have one yet (next time you go to the console you'll need to enter the new pw that you'r entering here). Type the following on the mySQL prompt
UPDATE mysql.user
SET Password=PASSWORD("xxxxxx")
WHERE User="root";
(where xxxxxx is the password you entered in the previous step).
12. Now type: FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
13. Go to your WAMP or MAMP folder, find the APPS folder, and than click on your PHPMYADMIN folder ( e.g C:\wamp\apps\phpmyadmin3.3.9) and find the config.inc.php
14. Open config.inc.php with wordpad and find the following text:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = '';
now add the password that you used in step number 3 like this :
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'yourPasswordHere';
15. now save this modification, and close config.inc.php

Congratulations!!! You have done everything and set to run your Apache Server!

SOLUTION FOR SOME OTHER ERRORS NOTIFIED BY USERS
ERROR CODE - "Additional features for working linked tables have been deactivated"



Enabling Linked Tables in phpMyAdmin



  • WAMP Server 2.

  • Apache 2.2.17·

  • PHP 5.3.5

  • MySQL 5.5.8

Step 1: Edit and run create_tables.sql
The file can be found at: C:\wamp\apps\phpmyadmin3.3.9\scripts\create_tables.sql
There are two sections at the top which are usually commented out – one to create a phpmyadmin database, and one to create a phpmyadmin user. I usually just create the database myself and I prefer to use the following command in the next step to create the user. So, after creating the database, I usually just run the file as it originally came.
Step 2: Create a control user (controluser):
In order to do this, go to phpMyAdmin by clicking the left mouse button at WAMP SERVER icon on the right corner of status bar of your computer, and click the menu "sql" , which will open "Run SQL query/queries on server "localhost" text box. Copy and paste as it is the commands given below, which will create the necessary database and tables automatically.


CREATE USER 'phpmyadmin'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'pmapass';
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE ON phpmyadmin.* TO 'phpmyadmin'@'localhost';




Step 3: Edit config.inc.php:


The file can be found at C:\wamp\apps\phpmyadmin3.3.9
Add these lines to your config.inc.php file and then you are set to run the Server!
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pmadb'] = 'phpmyadmin';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['bookmarktable'] = 'pma_bookmark';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['relation'] = 'pma_relation';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_info'] = 'pma_table_info';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['table_coords'] = 'pma_table_coords';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['pdf_pages'] = 'pma_pdf_pages';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['column_info'] = 'pma_column_info';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['history'] = 'pma_history';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['designer_coords'] = 'pma_designer_coords';


$cfg['Servers'][$i]['tracking'] = 'pma_tracking';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controluser'] = 'phpmyadmin';
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlpass'] = 'pmapass';


After I did all the above modifications, my server started working perfectly without any errors. Hope this will be useful to anyone who is looking for solutions to the above errors.


Have a wonderful day!!!

Life Without Limbs - From No Limbs to No Limits!

Imagine being born without arms. No arms to wrap around a friend ; no hands to hold the ones you love; no fingers to experience touch ; no way to lift or carry things. How much more difficult would life be if you were living without arms and hands? Or what about legs? Imagine if instead of no arms, you had no legs. No ability to dance, walk, run, or even stand. Now put both of those scenarios together… no arms and no legs. What would you do? How would that affect your everyday life?

Meet Nick Vujicic, pronounced 'Vooy-cheech'. Born in 1982 in Brisbane, Australia, without any medical explanation or warning, Nicholas Vujicic came into the world with neither arms nor legs. Imagine the shock his parents felt when they saw their first-born brand new baby boy for the first time, only to find he was what the world would consider imperfect and abnormal. A limbless son was not what nurse Dushka Vujicic, and her husband Pastor Boris Vujicic had been expecting. How would their son live a normal happy life? What could he ever do or become when living with such a massive disability? Little did they or anyone else know that this beautiful limbless baby would one day be someone who would inspire and motivate people from all walks of life. God uses Nick to touch lives and bring the hope of Jesus Christ to people across the globe.




Throughout his childhood, Nick dealt not only with the typical challenges of school and adolescence such as bullying and self-esteem issues; but also struggled with depression and loneliness. He constantly questioned why he was different than all the other kids surrounding him; why he was the one born without arms and legs. He wondered what the purpose behind his life was, or if he even had a purpose. According to Nick, the victory over his struggles throughout his journey, as well as the strength and passion he has for life can be credited to his faith in God. His family, friends and the many people he has encountered along the way have also encouraged him.

After school, Nick went on with further study and obtained a double Bachelor’s degree, majoring in Accounting and Financial Planning from Griffith University in Logan, Australia. By the age of 19, Nick started to fulfill his dream of being able to encourage other people and bring them the gospel of Jesus through motivational speaking and sharing his testimony about how God changed his life and gave him a future and a hope. “I found the purpose of my existence, and also the purpose of my circumstance. There’s a purpose for why you’re in the fire.” Nick wholeheartedly believes that there is a purpose in each of the struggles we each encounter in our lives, and that our attitude towards those struggles, along with our faith and trust in the Lord can be the keys to overcoming the challenges we face.

Now at 27 years old, this limbless young man has accomplished more than most people accomplish in a lifetime. Nick recently made the massive move from Brisbane, Australia to California, USA, where he is the President of an international non-profit organization; Life Without Limbs, and also has his own motivational speaking company; Attitude Is Altitude. Since his first speaking engagement back when he was 19, Nick has traveled around the world, sharing his story with millions of people, speaking to a range of different groups such as students, teachers, youth, businessmen and women, entrepreneurs, and church congregations of all sizes. He has also told his story and been interviewed on various televised programs worldwide. “If God can use a man without arms and legs to be His hands and feet, then He will certainly use any willing heart!”

Live a Life That Really Matters To You! (Fantastic !!!)

Some day it will all come to an end – whether you are ready or not.
All our wealth, fame and power will disintegrate.
All that we own will be lost.
That which isn't lost will be passed on to those who will ultimately lose it too.
All our frustrations, likes, dislikes, grudges and rejoicings will vanish.
There will be no more sunsets or sunrises, no years, months, weeks, days, hours or minutes.
It no longer matters where we came from, what our origins were, which race, caste, creed or sex we belonged to, Where we lived, how we lived.
There will be no more goals, ambitions, aspirations, to-do lists and wish lists.
All the victories and defeats fade away.
The value of our lives will be measured by what we built, not what we bought.
The value of our lives will be measured by what we gave, not what we got.
The value of our lives will be measured by our significance, not by our success.
The value of our lives will be measured by what we taught, not what we learnt.
The value of our lives will be measured by what we encouraged others to emulate, not by the people we manipulate.
The value of our lives will be measured by the loss others feel, not by the number of people that we knew.
The value of our lives will be measured by the number of people who loved us, not the number of people whom we loved.
The value of our lives will be measured by what we are remembered for, not what we are cursed for.
The value of our lives will be measured by the sacrifice we made, not by the quantity that we consumed.
The value of our lives will be measured by the compassion that we showed, not by the insults that we heaped.
The value of our lives will be measured by the integrity that we had, not by the principles that we renounced.
The value of our lives will be measured by our character, not by our competence.
Choose to live a life that matters. This happens by choice, not by chance. Look at where you are today, Is it by choice or by chance?
"We make a living by what we get; we make a life by what we give"

Your Health - Top Cancer Causing Foods & Brain Damaging Habits !!

TAKE CARE ABOUT YOUR HEALTH !
Live Life Without Limits!
AND PASS THIS INFORMATION TO WHOM YOU CARE ! Thank You !

The top five cancer-causing foods are:

1. Hot dogs
Because they are high in nitrates, the Cancer Prevention Coalition advises that children eat no more than 12 hot dogs a month. If you can't live without hot dogs, buy those made without sodium nitrate.

2. Processed meats and bacon
Also high in the same sodium nitrates found in hot dogs, bacon, and other processed meats raise the risk of heart disease. The saturated fat in bacon also contributes to cancer.

3. Doughnuts
Doughnuts are cancer-causing double trouble. First, they are made with white flour, sugar, and hydrogenated oils, then fried at high temperatures. Doughnuts, says Adams , may be the worst food you can possibly eat to raise your risk of cancer.

4. French Fries
Like doughnuts, French fries are made with hydrogenated oils and then fried at high temperatures. They also contain cancer- causing acryl amides which occur during the frying process. They should be called cancer fries, not French fries, said Adams .

5. Chips, Crackers, and Cookies
All are usually made with white flour and sugar. Even the ones whose labels claim to be free of trans-fats generally contain small amounts of trans-fats.

BRAIN DAMAGING HABITS

1. No Breakfast
People who do not take breakfast are going to have a lower blood sugar level.
This leads to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.

2. Overeating
It causes hardening of the brain arteries, leading to a decrease in mental power..

3. Smoking
It causes multiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.

4. High Sugar consumption
Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption of proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.

5. Air Pollution
The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body. Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.

6. Sleep Deprivation
Sleep allows our brain to rest. Long term deprivation from sleep will accelerate the death of brain cells.

7. Head covered while sleeping
Sleeping with the head covered increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effects.

8. Working your brain during illness
Working hard or studying with sickness may lead to a decrease in effectiveness of the brain as well as damage the brain.

9. Lacking in stimulating thoughts
Thinking is the best way to train our brain, lacking in brain stimulation thoughts may cause brain shrinkage.

10. Talking Rarely
Intellectual conversations will promote the efficiency of the brain

The main causes of liver damage are:
1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are 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 raw (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 should prevent this without necessarily spending more. We just have to adopt a good daily lifestyle and eating habits. Maintaining good eating habits and time condition are very important for our bodies to absorb and get rid of unnecessary chemicals according to 'schedule.'

DO TAKE CARE ABOUT YOUR HEALTH - Have Great Time Ahead !
