Shillong Teer -- What is it? How is the winner Decided

2018-09-20T03:12:00.000-07:00

Shillong, the capital of Meghalaya, is famous for its cold weather, water falls, lakes and, of course, Teer. Traditionally called 'Thoh Tim', it is one of the most organised gambling system in India. There are two rounds of Teer everyday except on Sunday and holidays. There are a number of Teer counters in the city – along the main roads, tucked away behind corners and up against tea stall. It is typically like a small shop with a license number and numbers written on the blackboard with a chalk. In one of these counters, anyone can buy ticket at any prices.

If you buy a ticket of INR 1 and you are the lucky winner, you shall draw INR 80 in the first round and INR 60 in the second round. Most people play between INR 10 and INR 100 but there are stories of massive bets, like lakhs on a number. They pay out around INR 50 - 60 lakhs a day, to people as far as Chennai and Mumbai. More about Shillong Teer can be found here.

HOW IS THE SHILLONG TEER WINNER DICIDED?

Every evening (when teer is played) at 4:00 pm and again at 4:30 a group of archers meet at Polo Ground ( shooting ground). Each round 50 archers shot 20 arrows each within 3 minutes. 5 Teer officials then count the arrows that hit the target and take the last two digits of the number as the round score. For example, if 845 arrows hit the target, the score is 45. So, if 45 is your ticket number then you are the winner. The odds are as high as 4000/1.

HOW CAN I PREDICT TEER LUCKY NUMBER?

Well, there is no formula for predicting the score. Some predict the score by interpreting their dream. If you dreamed of number 86 then your lucky can be 86, 68, 14 (8+6 = 14), 02 (8-6=2) and 48( 8x6=48). If you dreamed of water your lucky number ends with 7, so the possible numbers are 07, 17, 27, 37, 47, 57, 67, 87 and 97. If you dreamed of dead, your lucky numbers ends with 9, which means the score can be 09, 19, 29, 39, 49, 59, 69, 79, 89 and 99. If you dreamed of sex, your lucky number is a combination 5 and 6 and the score may be 56, 65, 11 (6+5), 01 (6-5) and 30 (6x5). It is believed that if dreamed of playing teer, you shall surely win it.

Some predict the score using a formula. For example, if today is dated 28, April 2015, then your lucky numbers are – 28+4 (April is the fourth month of the year) + 2015 = 2047, and take the last two digits of 2047, so your lucky number is 47.

To be precise, there is not correct formula or interpretation of dream that can predict the exact score. It is 99.9% luck. There are more than 1 Billion people in India (143,000 in Shillong) and most of them shall have different dreams.

Daily teer results are updated on small chalkboards and displayed in all the counters in Shillong and Meghalaya.

Playing Teer is fun and can be easily addicted. If you are very lucky, you can win it and become rich but playing Teer is not an easy way to be rich.

Snapchat Upload From Gallery

2017-08-09T12:18:00.001-07:00

There are many ways you can upload pictures from your gallery or camera roll to Snapchat. This guide tells all the methods to Snapchat upload from your phone. Feel free to follow the full guide.

Snap spectacles were announced in September 2016 and are now available to purchase.
They allow you to record ten-second snaps from these glasses, which are called spectacles without the need to hold your own phone. And then, they’re saved to your memories which you can publish to stories later.

To set up your snap spectacles, make sure your app is up-to-date. Then, access your settings by swiping and tapping the gear icon in the top right. Scroll down a little bit, and you’ll see a section called Spectacles.

Pair it up, and then, put your Spectacles on and tap the button on the left of the Spectacles while looking at the Snap code. Wait a few seconds, it’ll pair, and it will say it’s been connected.

So, to film using Snap Spectacles, all you have to do is tap the button firmly on the left side of the frames, then, a ten-second video will start recording. For the outside observer, there will be a white circular light that starts to appear.

While you’re wearing the glasses, you’ll see a white light that comes on when it starts and will blink a couple of times red before it finishes. If you don’t want to capture the entire 10 seconds, you can hold it for 2 seconds while it’s already filming.

You can record for up to 30 consecutive seconds, but Snapchat will actually break it into 3 ten seconds segments, you just have to tap once while it’s in the middle in one of those ten-second segments.

To access the videos after you’ve recorded them and publish them to your story, or send them to your friends, all you have to do is go to your memories, as you normally would.

There’s going to be a new tab there that says SPECS. Jump there or you can head to the ALL column. Then, select which clips you want to share or publish your story. And then publish them as you normally would.

How to charge snapchat spectacles

In addition to the Spectacles, you’ll receive a yellow triangular case. Aside from its unique design, it actually doubles as portable charging case. When fully charged, this guy can charge the Spectacles up to four times.

To charge the Spectacles, all you have to do is drop them in the case and there’s a magnetic charging port that makes it really easy to connect.

The light will start pulsing when it starts charging. If you want to know how much battery life your case has, all you have to do is tap the button on the side.

If either the case or the Spectacles run out, or you don’t have your case on you, you can use the USB cable to charge either directly.

So, where can you use these Spectacles?

You can use them in your everyday life. There’s a lot of opportunity for using them in active sports. Activities which you might need two hands for and otherwise couldn’t capture on Snapchat. They might be a little bit tricky to get used to them at first. Most of us are unfamiliar with people snapping with glasses as of now, but I’m really optimistic about where they’re going to take Snapchat.

How to save Snapchats - Videos and Photos

2017-08-07T03:23:00.001-07:00

Save snapchat photos and stories on your iOS device without them knowing

In this tutorial, I will be showing you how to screenshot a snapchat photo without anyone knowing. Well! I do not recommend taking screenshot of other snapchat, but if you really must there is a way. Let’s say your girlfriend or your friend sent you a snap and you want to have it on your phone but you don’t want to tell them. The unwritten rule of snapchat is you never screenshots someone’s picture.

So, here’s how to do it.

Go to your snapchat and load any photos that you want to save it to your device. When the snap load, turn on airplane mode and now you are disconnected.

View the picture and screenshot as much as you like. After that hold the lock button of the power button until the slide to power off comes on. And hold the home button until the app quits or in other words, to reset the app.

What you are really doing is clearing the RAM on your phone and that causes the app to quit. Now the app has been reset and it pretends you’ve never done anything malicious and your snapchat a few minutes ago. And the other person would not even know you did such thing.

This works with stories and chats as well. Load the story or chat, turn on airplane mode, screenshot it and reset the app and come back to the app. Even with the wifi on you’re all good.

Save snapchat photos on your android device

In order to save snapchat photos to your Android device, all you need to do is when you received a snap on snapchat, just open the snap and press and hold the home button to trigger now on tab.

Hit the share button on the left to share the screenshot. Select upload to photos to upload the screenshot to google photos. That’s how you take a screenshot in Android device without notifying the sender.

Note: In case recommended you to use Casper to save snapchat photos or videos please don’t use it. Don’t even try this, it’ll ban you for 12-24 hours. I’ve already used it before. It works beautifully, but you’ll get banned without a doubt.

How to save snapchat videos on Android and iPhone devices using apowersoft application

In this section, I’m going to show you how to save snapchat video on Android and iOS. Knowing how to save snapchat video is important because it allows users to review their favorite clips easily.

Snapchat Filters - How to use Snapchat Filters

2017-08-07T03:20:00.000-07:00

Snapchat filters have evolved. We now have geofilters and custom on-demand filters. No longer do we live in the traditional world. Take a look at how to use Snapchat filters and get all the filters you need.

In order to start using Snapchat filters, you need to go to your settings and activate the filters. You will find this in the Additional Settings page.

Everyone calls them Filters but Snapchat calls them lenses. They are very silly but the engineering behind them is serious. This technology came from a Ukrainian startup called Looksery which Snapchat acquired in September 2015 for a $150 million dollars. That’s the largest tech acquisition in Ukranian history so far. Their augmented reality filters tap into the large and rapidly growing field of “computer vision” those are applications that use pixel data from a camera in order to identify objects and interpret 3D space.

So how does a snapchat filter work? Well! The first step is detection. The computer decides which part of an image is a face. This is something that our brains are too good at. But for a computer, it needs to have the color value of each individual pixel. The computer finds the areas of contrast, between light and dark parts of the image. And this facial detection tool is called the Viola-Jones algorithm.

This algorithm works by repeatedly scanning through the image data thereby calculating the difference between data of the image. Once the algorithm finds enough matches in one area of the image, it concludes that there is a face there. However, it won’t find your face if you are facing sideways or tilted, but they are very accurate for frontal faces. So this is how a snapchat filter works.

How do I use Snapchat Filter

I am going to show you how to use filters on snapchat. You need to have your snapchat app open and I want you to flip the camera around by tapping on the camera icon on the top right corner. Hold your thumb down or finger down on your face and you can see that circles are going around there.

Before we go further, always remember to update your snapchat app because snapchat rolls out new artwork and new filters like almost every day. It’s one of the things I think is as impressive as there is always new stuff. All the artwork is top-notch. I think it’s the coolest artwork out there and it’s always fresh and new which makes it kind of fun because it seems like every time you turn on snapchat you got something new to play with and pressure to make people laugh. So that’s all these filters are meant to do is just kind of let your hair down, relax and have fun with. Here’s how you use snapchat filters.

The only thing you need to do is press on the screen. I usually just press right at my nose, look at your phone look at your nose, and just press the screen and it’s going to activate the little wire mesh. You’re going to see the white wire mesh go over the screen that means you have activated the filters. That’s it! Look below there’s a little circle in the middle, that’s the shutter button. Below the shutter button is the “X” button, if you want to “X” out of the filter you need to press the “X” button.

To reactivate, press your thumb on your face right over your nose and it’s going to activate the wire mesh. When you see the wire mesh they’re activated so once you hit the shutter button or you can press it once for a photo and you can hold it for 10 seconds for a video. Whatever one you use the filter is going to be applied to your face.

The filters are really easy, some of them will tell you to raise your eyebrows or open your mouth and that’s just going to activate the little thing as you record your snap. Just slide it over to see all the different things that you can do. It’s kind of fun right. So that is how you use filters on Snapchat.

Understanding Snapchat Best Friends

2014-05-27T06:22:00.000-07:00

I'm sure you know what Snapchat is. It's only the most popular messaging app right now. Its popularity stems from the ephemeral nature of messages sent on Snapchat. Once a message is opened, you can no longer view it. It's dead. It gets deleted, in a manner of speaking.

Learn how to do Snapchat face swap.

And one of the most controversial features of Snapchat is the Best Friends list. In this article, we'll try to understand what Snapchat best friends are, how does it work and how you can get rid of it.

What are Snapchat Best Friends?

Snapchat best friends are a selected list of 3 people that most frequently chat with you, or that you most frequently chat with, on Snapchat.

You can find your Snapchat best friends on top of your contacts list when you're about to send out a snap. It is placed on top of the contacts list for easy access to people that you most frequently chat with, which makes sense. It saves you the trouble of looking through your entire list to find the people that you want to send the snap to.

However, the best friends list is also displayed publicly on your Snapchat profile. Anyone who visits your profile can see your best friends. This is wrong in so many levels.

Hoes does Snapchat best friends work?

Snapchat best friends are updated on a weekly basis. They represent the people you chat with most frequently over the past week.

A score measure the number of snaps exchanged between you and each of your friends for a week. Whoever has the highest scores get to the best friends list.

For more on how snapchat best friends work, visit the link.

How to hide or remove Snapchat best friends

Since your best friends are displayed on your profile, anyone can view them. The need to remove your Snapchat best friends cannot be stressed enough.

To do this, simply block your best friends and then unblock them later. This resets the score between you to zero and as such removes them from all of your lists. Once you unblock them, they'll be out of the lists.

You can also do this by chatting more with your other friends and outscoring your current best friends.

2010-08-03T11:17:00.000-07:00

Home is where the heart is. You can't really truly feel at home unless you're under your own roof, with your own family, with your own furniture. I mean do you feel at home when you're in a hotel? I don't think so.

A great way to improve your experience at home has many things to do with your furniture. You buy a really nice couch or a table or a drawer, and when you do put all of these where they should be, that's the 'home' feeling that makes it all worth the while. Have a look at couchtisch weiss. You just might find what you need.

Having said that, what you now need is a relaxing afternoon with your kids, or your parents for that matter, having that great time you've never had before. At home. Remember: if it ain't the building, it's the furniture.

Desperate Measures For Desperate Times

2009-04-07T09:39:00.000-07:00

A month from now, I'd have completed my 3^rd year in college. Then my entire future would be decided by the outcome of the events that are to happen in the 4^th year (7^th semester).

The economic crisis continues. Word is software companies will not be coming for campus recruitment before the 8^th semester. Core companies will probably start recruiting next semester though. And word is only the best students will be selected - which I definitely am not one.

The National Institute of Technology(NIT), Jamshedpur, my dear college, may certainly not be the best in the land, but it has been boasting of a 100% campus placement since a few years back. That is, all final year students would've got at least one job offer, some bagging as many as three offers, from both private companies and public sector units by the time they finally graduate.

And it could very well have gone on as it used to - a 100% placement - and I could very well have been assured knowing there's a job offer waiting for me three months from now. I could, had not the ugly face of economic depression show up.

Some firms won't hire for the next 10 months. Some, we don't know if they'd ever come to our college. The few that will be coming would have to hire the best of the best from my batch. Competition will be strong.

Competition will be harsh, I know, and yet I'm still writing a blog post. Writing a blog post and wasting my time. Yes, a waste!

A waste because I'm not that kind of person who could do two things at a time. I never can quite shuffle two balls at a time however much I try. If I write a blog post, that's what I do. My mind is in it. And coming out of that blogging world is not easy. If I turn on my computer, there's no turning it off until I've spent at the very least about 5 hours staring into it. If I indulged myself in a reverie, I dwell in the reverie until it ends with a happy ending. I am a freak and I love being one.

So, blogging could pretty much adversely affect my studies and my future as a whole. Which is why I've decided to stop blogging for a long time. I've decided to halt all nonsense activities and, for once, get real, act like a student (which I am). It's my life that's in question; I'm not going to take chances.

I'll check my inbox and scrapbook from time to time. And that's about all I'll be doing with the internet, I hope.

Because steel companies are the major recruiters for my branch, I'd have to re-learn all those boring processes of steelmaking, iron-making, petroleum refining...all those boring metallurgical crap. And given my so-called love for computers and programming, I'd have to learn the major programming languages like C, C++, Java, etc to get into software companies. All within 2 to 3 months!!! To worsen the already hopeless situation, I'd have to do a two-month summer training (internship) this summer [May - June] as part of the academic curriculum.

And bagging a job offer while in college is more than important for me. It's a necessity. A necessity given my current financial status and the fact that I won't last in an off-campus recruitment process.

So I guess it's goodbye for now. Farewell and God bless!

Revolution Elements Blogger Template

2009-03-20T07:22:00.000-07:00

I'm announcing the launch of Revolution Elements theme for Blogger. This extremely cool theme was originally created by Jason Schuller [View WP Demo] for Wordpress. Copyrights are owned by Brian Gardner of Studio Press under the GNU Creative Commons License or whatever (I don't really know the stuffs. :D) What matters though is that Brian has given me the permission to "go for it". And walla, here it is the Revolution Elements Blogger theme available for free download!

Click here to skip to the download button

Given the time and labor spent on converting this theme from its Wordpress counterpart and on certain modifications, I thought I'd make it a premium template, maybe sell it for some few dollars. But I decided otherwise because this is my first Blogger template ever; I want to know how it's doing. So please do give your honest comments and most importantly, report any broken links or deviations from the Demo Site.

Learn about Snapchat face swap at SnappTips.

If you're looking for an Adsense optimised template, I'm afraid this Revolution Elements Blogger template might just not be the right one for you. Of course, you can display any number of ads you wish to. But this template is more about the looks than mere money-making. And I have to say it looks better with fewer ads. If you must however, image ads with proper customization are just the right ads (so I opine!). :)

Special features of the theme:

An extremely cool top Menu. See how to set up.
[Part of the credit goes to Amanda Fazani [Blogger Buster]. I used a modified version of her menu style in Grid Focus template.
A share and bookmark button attached to every post. Already customised and set up.
[Thanks to addthis.com]
A pre-customised label cloud which can be attached from the normal 'Add Page Element' by the usual way.
[Thanks to Phydeaux3]
A pre-customised tabbed sidebar Menu for Recent Posts, Comments and Twitter updates which can be manually installed. See how.
[Thanks to Trick Tips Blogger]
A pre-installed "Read More" expandable post summary hack which you can easily add in two steps. See how
[Thanks to eBlog Templates]
Pre-installed 'Revolution' icon (which is so cool!).
Pre-customised sidebar widget space for 125x125 Picture Ads which you can easily add. See how to set up.
Different background for blog authors' comments.
Last but not the least, the specialty of this theme lies in the fact that it is built directly from Blogger's Minima template. So future modifications, if any, can be done really easily by following the default rules.

VIEW DEMO | DOWNLOAD

Given the amount of time and labor input in the creation of the theme, a donation would be most certainly appreciated; even a click or two on my Adsense ads would mean a lot. Donation button is at the bottom of the page...just in case.

Note
Using this template requires that you do not change the credit links to the creators' sites. The credits/links area is at the bottom of the page. Please leave it intact. Thank you.

The Tutorials

Setting up the top Horizontal Menu:

Go to your Blogger Dashboard > Layout > Edit HTML

Within the Edit Template section, scroll down towards the end and look for the following code within the <body> and </body> tags.:

<div class='nav'> <ul class='nav fix'>  <li class='skip'><a href='LINK URL HERE' title='LINK DESCRIPTION'>LINK4<br/><span>LINK DESCRIPTION</span></a></li> <li><a href='LINK URL HERE' title='LINK DESCRIPTION'>LINK3<br/><span>LINK DESCRIPTION</span></a></li> <li><a href='LINK URL HERE' title='LINK DESCRIPTION'>LINK2<br/><span>LINK DESCRIPTION</span></a></li> <li><a href='LINK URL HERE' title='LINK DESCRIPTION'>LINK1<br/><span>LINK DESCRIPTION</span></a></li> <li><a expr:href='data:blog.homepageUrl' title='Return to the the frontpage'>Home<br/><span>frontpage</span></a></li> </ul> </div>

If you can't find it, try pressing CTRL + F and type "LINK1". That is sure to take you to the desired location.

Now, make necessary changes to the Menu by changing the "LINKs", "LINK DESCRIPTIONs" and "LINK URL HEREs". You don't have to add the "Home" link, it has already been added.

Remember, the link to the right of "Home" is LINK1. LINK4 is the last link in the Menu. Don't try to add more than these 4+1 links, it will mess up the looks of the Navigation Menu as the background image is fixed.

Setting up the Tabbed Sidebar Menu:

Go to Dashboard > Layout > Page Elements

On the right side of the page you will see the sidebar widgets like the one shown in the adjoining picture:

Click on the edit link of Latest and insert the following code:

<form action="tabview.html" method="get"> <div id="TabView" class="TabView"> <div style="width: 290px;" class="Tabs"> <a>POSTS</a> <a>COMMENTS</a> <a>TWEETS</a>  </div> <div style="width: 268px; height: 250px;" class="Pages"> <div class="Page"> <div class="Pad"> <script src="http://www.geocities.com/jo_thiek/blogger-widget.js"></script> <script>var numposts = 9; var showpostdate = false; var showpostsummary = false; var numchars = 100; </script> <script src="http://BLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?orderby=published&alt=json-in-script&callback=rp"> </script> </div></div> <div class="Page"> <div class="Pad"> <script style="text/javascript" src="http://www.geocities.com/jo_thiek/comments.js"></script><script style="text/javascript">var a_rc=4;var m_rc=false;var n_rc=true;var o_rc=35;</script> <script src="http://BLOGNAME.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default?alt=json-in-script&callback=showrecentcomments"> </script> </div></div> <div class="Page"> <div class="Pad"> <div id="twitter_div"><ul id="twitter_update_list"></ul> <a id="twitter-link" style="display:block;text-align:right;" href="http://twitter.com/TWITTER-USERNAME" target="_blank">follow me on Twitter</a> </div> <script src="http://twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <script src="http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/TWITTER-USERNAME.json?callback=twitterCallback2&count=4" type="text/javascript"></script> </div></div> </div></div></form> <script type="text/javascript"> tabview_initialize('TabView'); </script>

Make necessary changes to the capitalised values, i.e, your "BLOGNAME.blogspot.com" and "TWITTER-USERNAME". If you want to change the menu header for your twitter updates from "TWEETS" to anything, just replace "TWEETS" (at the top) with it.
Back to features
Setting up the "Read More":
The required code within the body of the HTML <body> tag has been added in the template. All you have to do now is go to Dashboard > Settings > Formatting and do the following:

Scroll down to the last option "Post Template" and paste the following code:

<span class="fullpost"> </span>

Yes, retain the space in between. Once you're done it should look something like this:

Now, save your settings and try posting a new blog post. You will notice that the editor area already contains the <span> tags necessary to bring about the "Read full post" feature.
Anything put above the <span class="fullpost"> tag would appear as the 'teaser text' in the final post. And anything below it will be invisible in the final post when viewed from the homepage.

Publish your post and see how it works. For more information please refer to the tutorial in eBlog Templates.

Back to features
Setting up the Picture Ads:

Go to Dashboard > Layout > Page Elements

On the right side of the page you will see the sidebar widgets like the one shown in the adjoining picture:

Click on the edit link of Sponsors and insert the following code in the content area:

<table border="0" class="table_ads"> <tr><td> Insert code for Picture Ad#1 here </td><td> Insert code for Picture Ad#2 here </td></tr> <tr><td> Insert code for Picture Ad#3 here </td><td> Insert code for Picture Ad#4 here </td></tr> </table>

Insert the respective codes for your Picture Ads or Referral Image Ads, preferably of size 125x125 pixels. Don't change anything except the texts "Insert code for Picture Ad here".

Save it and you're done.

Btw, do bookmark or share this post if you think it's useful enough. There's a share button just right below.

Thank you. :)

Blozard - An Intro

2009-02-24T05:48:00.000-08:00

Blozard comes from 'Blogger' + 'Wizard'. :)

This blog hopes to answer all blog issues, focussing mainly on Blogger blogs, from choosing between the thousands of templates downloadable from the internet or in uploading such, or from customizing the templates to setting up widgets.

Do a google search on 'blogger templates' or anything the like and you're bound to get thousands of results. Let's face it, not all of the templates created or converted from other sources meet the 'ok' standard.

This blog is an attempt to resolve such issues. I intend to review all (or most) of the free blogger templates available in the internet, modify the said templates (in some cases) and provide links and reviews of the templates I feel are the best. Wait, not just the best...the bestest!!

I shall also upload my own templates (converted from Wordpress and, sometimes, original creation) from time to time.

ALSO, I WILL BE BLOGGING ABOUT MANY OTHER THINGS. :)
