In response, Google created a black version of its search engine, called Blackle,with the exact same functions as the white version,but obviously with lower energy consumption:

Meaning: We meditate on Lord Ganesha - who is clad in white (representing purity), who is all pervading (present everywhere), whose complexion is gray like that of ash (glowing with spiritual splendor), who has four arms, who has bright countenance (depicting inner calm and happiness) and who can destroy all obstacles (in our spiritual and worldly path).

Meaning:The Lord with the curved trunk and a mighty body, who has the luster of a million suns, I pray to thee Oh Lord, to remove the obstacles from all the actions I intend to perform.

Meaning: The Lord with the elephant face, served by all the Ganas, One who takes as His food, the essence of Kapitta and Jamboophala (these are two favorite fruits of Ganesh), son of Uma (Mother Parvati), destroyer of misery of the devotees, controller of obstacles, we worship Your Lotus Feet.

Meaning: We invite You, the Lord of spiritual faith (of Lord Shiva). You are the wisest among the wise, the best to be given as a standard of comparison. You are the senior Lord, Lord of the Vedic manthras, listening to our prayers. Please visit our home with prosperous things and be seated here.

Meaning: I prostrate before Lord Vinaayaka who joyously holds modaka in His hand, who bestows salvation, who wears the moon as a crown in His head, who is the sole leader of those who lose themselves in the world. The leader of the leaderless who destroyed the elephant demon called Gajaasura and who quickly destroys the sins of those who bow down to Him, I worship such a Lord Ganesh.

Meaning: I bow down with my whole mind to the shining Ganapati who brings happiness to all the worlds, who destroyed the demon Gajasura, who has a big belly, beautiful elephant face, who is immortal, who gives mercy, forgiveness and happiness to those who bow to Him and who bestows fame and a well disposed mind.

Meaning: I worship the ancient elephant God who destroys the pains of the poor, who is the abode of Aum, who is the first son of Lord Shiva (Shiva who is the destroyer of triple cities), who destroys the pride of the enemies of the Gods, who is frightening to look at during the time of world's destruction, who is fierce like an elephant in rut and who wears Dhananjaya and other serpents as his ornaments.

Meaning: I constantly reflect upon that single tusked God only, whose lustrous tusk is very beautiful, who is the son of Lord Shiva, (Shiva, the God of destruction), whose form is immortal and unknowable, who tears asunder all obstacles, and who dwells forever in the hearts of the Yogis.

Meaning:Every day, I bow down to that Lord, the son of Gowri, the Lord one who lives in the heart of the devotees, blessing them always with good health and prosperity.

Meaning: Starting from here the twelve names of Ganesha are mentioned and he is worshipped in those different forms. The first as the Lord with the curved trunk; second, as the one with only one tusk, third, as the one with black (red/brown) eyes, fourth, as the one with giant structure.

Meaning: Fifth, as the one with a big (long) stomach, six, as the one with a huge body Seven, as the remover of obstacles, eight, as the one with smoke gray color

Meaning:Whoever the one who recites and listens to these sixteen names at the beginning of studies, at the time of marriage, while entering or departing a place, or at the battle field, all their obstacles will be removed. Even the Gods worship Lord Ganesha to receive the fulfillment of their actions. Oh Lord Ganesh, the One who has this power of destroying all the obstacles in the way of the devotees, I prostrate before you.

What does color meanto you?

Have you ever been passed on the highway by one of the ugly pink cars a certain cosmetics company gives its sales force? I think the drivers go so fast because they are ashamed to be seen in a pink car. Color makes a big impression and, believe it or not, can affect a company's bottom line.

So, how do you pick a good color for a design? For some products, it's a no-brainer because there are already established industry standards. Yellow, for example, is for construction equipment, and red or florescent green is for fire trucks. Here are a few tips on those and other colors:

Red suggests aggressive. The color raises subconscious flags because it's the color of blood. Red also means danger — and interestingly, excitement. That's why there are so many red sports cars.

Yellow is another spor ty color for much the same reason. But it also says "Caution" or "Hazardous."

White means different things in different cultures. It can suggest clean or sterile, denoting purity or holiness. I'm told that in Asia, white is the traditional color of death.

Black (Henry Ford's favorite) makes things seem rugged, even sporty. Black can also denote high class and formal. Like white, black suggests either holy or evil.

Silver denotes high tech, but can be construed as artificial.

Pink usually means "girlie" (the so-called "power ties" notwithstanding).

Blue, of course, is traditionally for boys.

Green is associated with natural, that is, safe.

Light green (and sometimes white) suggests medical.

Pastels mean gentle and pure.

Muted colors denote classy. Thus, they are plentiful in bank ads and men's clubs.

Bright colors (especially primaries) are fun and youthful.

Fluorescents are right out of the psychedelic 1960s, man. Interestingly, animals that cannot see color also can't tell the difference between leafy green and fluorescent orange. That's why hunters have fluorescent camouflage. (I must admit to more than a little confusion at the pink camouflage people wear nowadays. What kind of surroundings are they trying to fit into?)

As for color combinations, black and white have the highest contrast. But black and yellow are the most noticeable to humans. So hazard signs and police crime-scene tapes are always black and yellow.

A good working knowledge of color can help avoid making aesthetic design mistakes. Selecting the wrong color can tell potential customers that your company is stodgy and its products dated. After all, when was the last time you actually wanted to buy an avocado-green refrigerator?
