[www.keralites.net] THE Girl Who Grew Up in the African Wild

The Girl Who Grew Up in the African Wild.

The pictures are just gorgeous.... Riding a five-ton elephant, whom she called my brother, chilling with a cheetah or hugging a giant bullfrog as if it were a Teddy bear.
The childhood of a French girl Tippi Degre sounds more like a newer version of Mowgli, rather than something real.
A white child, she was born in Namibia to French wildlife photographer parents, and grew up in Africa .
Tippi spent her whole childhood playing with wild animals including lion cubs, a mongoose, a snake, a cheetah, baby zebra, giraffes and crocodiles.
The little girl saw nothing unusual about her company: I don't have friends here. Because I never see children.
So the animals are my friends, she once said.
Tippi is now 23 years old, and the only child to wildlife photographer parents Sylvie Robert and Alain Degre, who published her photos in a book called Tippi of Africa.
It was magical to be able to be free in this nature with this child. She was a very lucky little girl she was born and raised until the age of 10 totally in the wild." said Sylvie.

How she appears today.......at the end of the child pics

[www.keralites.net] From 5K to 5 crore: A college dropout's amazing journey - Shashank Chourey

From 5K to 5 crore: A college dropout's amazing journey

Shashank Chourey had dropped out of engineering college in his second year to pursue his passion for computers. How did this hacker who quit his job with merely Rs 5000 in his pocket build a company that has more than 1000 clients? Read on for his amazing success story....

life took a turn when he was 13 and fell in love with computers.

He would play games on it all night and even miss his school exams. Coding became his cocaine.

Hacking was a high among the friends he made in chat rooms.

Every coder worth his salt wanted to be a hacker.

It didn't take Chaurey long to rise up the ranks.

He found a steady source of income at crackpal.com, where the pay was $50 to hack into an e-mail account.

"I hacked into more than 40 Indian government websites and more than 100 big corporate websites in less than 18 minutes. That included NTPC tenders, the Delhi Government official site and so on. I sent a report on their poor cyber security to CERT and NIC, but they were least interested," Chourey recalls about his early days.

By February 2014, five years since he walked out with Rs 5000, "I was making over Rs 5 crore a year."

According to Chourey, working on several projects simultaneously -- they take up around 300 projects every month on average, and this month they have 425 on hand -- works to their advantage.

According to his project manager Abhinav Sharma, at the last count up to February 2014, they have delivered more than 10,000 successful SEO projects.

Today, India Infotech has more than 4000 clients.

"We have optimised our business model to generate maximum profits. So our revenue margins are very high as compared to any traditional company," he says.
