Drive away

My boss had planned this vacation for over an year.It was his way to beat stress.I had to help him out on this European trip.I had got everything right and the only thing I had not thought about was the car hire plan.I had completely overlooked it till the last moment.It struck me when there was barely few days left.It was when I found this site.
It was a complete portal with updates from all leading car rental car suppliers in Europe and Italy Car Hire.
I could search for all dealers entering the pick up date,location,number of passengers,the rates, availability etc in a single click.It was user friendly,reliable and extremely trusted.It saved me from a huge embarrassment and my Boss was obviously satisfied with the service.

The day of ghosts

Every year my workplace gears up in full vigour for this day.Just take a guess.Would it be our board meeting?Our boss's birthday?Auditing?None of these.Its the halloween day.We just do not know why,but this day ever since the first day of inaugration,this particular day by some means has brought all excitement,fun and interest in usually dull and professional office atmosphere.Every year its the duty of one employee to select and purchase halloween costumes for every one participating.One might imagine the complexity of this task considering the fact that each oen has his own idea,his tastes ,likes ,dislikes ,priorities and preferences.
More difficult is finding the coreect size for a typically over size man/women.I had a real headache in finding a good source of halloween costumes as this year was my turn and I had a very little time to spare for this activity.
My search led me to this site.This I can easily claim to be the best source I had found so far. I suppose any further search cannot lead me to a better site .It had the largest online collection for men,women,children and even babies.
One could chose from the normal and the sexy varieties that were available and the selection was a easy task because they had a very good display catelogue.Every thing needed for a halloween right from accesories to decoration items was found.My favorite was this Angel Halloween costumes and no wonder it had a very great demand.Oen thing to note is that every piece is of very good quality and easily affordable.Beneath each product there is a very easy way to shop online and also a cool notification facility to inform us in case something is not available.
I have decided that this site would be the ultimate place for any event that I may host in future.

For your dear ones

It was a real hectic planning for my family tour.Thing was that we had many babies in our household and planning the travel for their safety was as vital as our comfort was.This was when I found this travel site that specialised onbaby travel issues.I could book air tickets,hotel rooms and obtain suggestions from the experts in this site.

Searching Simplified

For every student in this modern world ,ebooks serve as a great source of information.Nowadays more than libraries and books its the ebooks that are catering the needs of millions of students these days.What a student of today needs is a good search engine that is exclusive for the search of e-books and pdf documents.ebook-search-queen.com from my point of view is by far the best search tool that I have come across.I could find every research paper that I needed for my masters thesis with this search engine.I must really thank this site and I recommend it for every one of my friends for pdf search.

Identifying Customer needs

The basic philosophy is to create a high quality information channel that runs directly between customers and every designer and developer.The people who rule the product development cycle must have direct interaction with each and every customer.Also it is important that the designer experiences the user environment and without this direct experience the technocal trade offs will never be done correctly.One other major issue is that innovative solutions to customer needs may not be discovered without the real hands on experience.The most significant issue arises later that the designers will lack the deep commitment with customer needs.

One stop furniture shop

It was after a very long time that we decided to renovate our house.It was a very interesting experience to search for all furniture online.As always my search led me to this amazing site mynewfurniturestore.com.It had a huge collection of everything I wanted ranging from living room furnitures,beds,sofas etc.The most striking feature was the user friendliness of the portal which had the products listed under various clear categories making it very easy for the customers to make their choice.Another really good feature was that they offer free shipping for every purchase.

My favorite items on display were the dinette sets ,the living room sofa,microfiber sofa and ofcourse the dog beds for my pet dog.

Product design and development

For every organisation in business the process of identifying customer needs is vital for development.The process is very important for the welfare of the company because and it is those organisations that can carry this out well that sustain for a very long duration.Otherwise its very difficult to sustain in this really competitive atmosphere of cut throat competition and greed.
Today the focus is more on withstanding the competition from within.If you can win yourselves then it means you can compete with anyone and any high standards.Its all the fire from within that drives the business of this modern world.Money and its aroma rule the corporate world of today.

Game On

It had been a very hectic week for me in college.I decided to take a well deserved break and get back to my long lost passion of gaming.This may have been because one of my friends had gifted me a World of Warcraft game cd and I was really tempted to give it a try.I had to find some one else who had played it.My immediate destination was the Rugged nerds gaming forum and as always it was a very wise decision.I was really excited to be a part of this world.They had well categorised sections for pc,console and egaming.

There were also numerous threads and active discussions on game specific topics.It was a good place also to carry out general chat and discussions as well.

ASSPs

Several converging technology
trends and market factors are leading
to the increased use of the Application
Specific Standard Processor (ASSP)
for a widening range of applications.
Ever-increasing performance demands
in networked communications, data storage,
and other arenas require that next
generation embedded processors deliver
increased processing performance. At
the same time, the growing role of industry-
standard bus and network interfaces
make it less attractive to design and
maintain the single-purpose Application
Specific IC (ASIC) as the cost of tooling
and mask development continues to
increase.

Dress up your bike

Every man I have come across is a bike lover of some sort.More than just riding ,most of us love to dress up and customize our bikes with accessories and spare parts of all kinds.I recently found this site which by far is the most incredible I have come across.It provides a huge variety of accessories annd spare parts of very good quality to every brand of bike that is available.
The huge merchandise that is available is professionally classified under numerous categories and this makes the browsing and selection a very easy task.My personal choice was national cycle parts and no wonder I have become a huge fan of this site.

For the car lovers

My friend who had gone to UK for his MS recently called me.His voice was full of happiness and it had been quite some time since I had seen him so excited.He was a great lover of cars.The reason for his excitement was that he had visited Buyyourcar website.The moment I saw it I was impressed too.Being a three year old site with great reputation they offer every information on used cars,new cars,car leasing,contracts and also comparison of all available offers.
Valuable car reviews and insurance information is also provided.It was a timely help for me since it provided the best in market information on used cars.

Lateral Thinking

Lateral thinking is a term coined by Edward de Bono, a Maltese psychologist, physician, and writer. He defines Lateral Thinking as methods of thinking concerned with changing concepts and perception.
It can be a very handy tool in many critical situations in life.The lack of lateral thinking can be a very dangerous thing in certian critical conditions.I had seen it practically and experienced it personally too.
I am considering to post more on this.

Share files with ease

My office was in a major upgradation mode .We were looking for some options to actually manage file sharing process in our work place more efficiently and effectively.A quick survey led us to this site.
We were impressed by their track record that had lasted for over ten years in providing file transfer solutions to both small and large companies.Most importantly many major organisations were their customers.
We were pretty convinced that we would be able to save millions of dollars by eliminating huge man hours of file transfer.
Their expertise in providing ftp servers promised a very effective solution that would be the best fit for us.Do try and be impressed.

Time is precious- Is it?

It had been almost a year since all our college friennds had met.Things were different now.Most of us had become very busy with hectic office schedules and assignments.The reason for this meet was that one of our friends was going abroad for his higher studies.It was once again left to us to search for a suitable gift .This we all thought should be a particularly good one because he wil be away from us for almost 3 years.What else than a watch would be the perfect gift?
This was when I found www.bestoftime.com.This I suppose is by far the best of the sites I have found to purchase quality Rolex watches at affordable cost.Rolex is close to everyone's heart and I have started loving this site for obvious reasons.This site with a great reputation of offering the best priced Rolex watches as they are independent dealers.All items are absolutely genuine and have authentic serial numbers,brand new Rolex boxes and GIA member appraisal papers.
Most interestingly they offer a 3 year warranty and a free fedex shipping.We were extremely satisfied with teh gift we purchased from the site.I am sure I will be a regular customer .

The right smell

One thing that anyone will agree to is the fact that to get your choice of perfume right is the most difficult task to deal with.Its the same in my case too.I had a number of trails before my final choice of sandalwood cologne.This was after a series of trials on varieties like coconut ,eu d cologne,rose etc .The scent of sandalwood was the most refreshing to me.Though rose was a pleasant choice,it never did last as long as sandalwood did.
My first visit to a perfume store lasted almost 1 hour.I had tried out every available choice before my nose actually ceased to detect any scent.

Web hosting made easy

I had always loved the job of organising things.I got the oppurtunity to organise a family get together at my office.A web site had to be created with the details for the members to access and register their presence.The urgent search for a web hosting site led me to webhostinggeeks.It was a one stop destination for my needs .This amazingly simple and user friendly site had a complete information on the best web hosts of the year 2009 and this was what I wanted the most.Need less to say I had the best site to host the information and the project was a huge success.Thanks to the site and their dedicated servers

GUIDELINES FOR SCHOOLS/COLLEGES/INSTITUTIONS ON INFLUENZA A/H1N1


There have been some cases of Influenza A H1N1 virus among students and staff in certain schools, primarily in Delhi and Maharashtra. There has been considerable speculation over the need for closure of schools to control the outbreak. This matter has been considered by the Joint Monitoring Group in the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare. All schools and colleges are advised to observe the following guidelines for managing cases of infection of Influenza AH1N1.


Any student or staff member showing flu like symptoms such as fever, cough, running nose and difficulty in breathing should be allowed to stay at home for a period of 7 to 10 days.


Educational institutions should not insist on production of medical certificate by the student/staff.


Educational institutions should monitor the health status of such students/staff who might have come in contact with a suspected case of Influenza AH1N1 to see whether they develop flu like symptoms. In case they do so, they should be allowed to stay home, as outlined at (i) above


In case of students staying in Hostels, the educational institutions would not only monitor the health status of the students, but also that of care providers. It has to be ensured that the care providers wear face mask and wash hands regularly. It might not be advisable to send the boarders back to home, as it would spread infection further.


Educational institutions are further encouraged to report such cases to local health officers for further monitoring.


Given the current magnitude of the spread of AH1N1 infection and the fact that the current virus is fairly mild, closure of educational institutions on account of any student/staff member falling ill with flu like symptoms is not recommended.


In the first place, the schools should discourage the excursions of the students to the affected countries.


In case if the students had proceeded to affected countries on unavoidable tours, then on their return, if some students show flu like symptoms of fever, sore- throat , cough , body ache, running nose, difficulty breathing etc. they should be advised to abstain from attending school and be allowed to stay at home for a period of 7 to 10 days.

Shopping right for safety

I had a very interesting task this week.My friend had rented out a huge building for his new business and I was given a team of 20 men who had retired from army.My job was to provide them with the best apparel,accessories and equipment to make them a perfect security team.My search for cheap duty gear ended with this site.Apart from offering a very wide range of products ranging from apparels,badges,bags,footwear and many more,the site also has a very user friendly interface easy to use interface.Orders can be made via phone,mail,fax and also a very trusted online gateway.I was really happy with the offers available and also the personal account managers who responded very fast.
I am now one of their very happy customers.

2008 JULY-2009 JULY

This I suppose to be the fastest one year period in my life.It was so fast that I can remember every incident that occurred in july 2008 with so much clarity.May be it seemed to be so fast because of my job-one that I really loved.

This was the period when I blogged the least,or I feel I lost my writing skills.Should write something regularly to be able to express thoughts with ease.

This one year has changed me in many ways.All good ways I suppose.New friends,some really close ones too.I am not the type you can expect to call you everyday for a Hi if you are my friend.I value each one of my precious friends :)

I am really happy :)

Pitstop

I had obtained my car license after a great stroke of good luck.It was a real achievement of all sorts considering the fact that I had practiced just 4 hours for the test.I had taken my friend's car to the test and on the way back met with a silly accident.A biker who was speeding past suddenly put on his brakes and hit hard on the car.It was a nasty hit damaging the doors and the window glass.I was caught in an emergency to repair the damage immediately .My only saviour at that time was auto body montclair .
I chose the closest,best auto body shop according to numerous reviews and ratings and got the job done with ease.
It is a massive nation wide network and trusted everywhere.

Michael Jackson Dead

The first thing that topped google trends this Firday morning was the news of the death of Michael Jackson from a suspected cardiac arrest.
Michael Jackson has died at the age of 50 after suffering a suspected heart attack.
Paramedics were called to the singer's Holmby Hills home in Los Angeles and he was taken to the UCLA medical centre for emergency treatment and attention.

The king of pop was pronounced dead at 2.26pm Pacific time (10.26pm BST) on Thursday and a post-mortem examination is expected to take place later on Friday, Los Angeles Coroner's Office spokesman Fred Corral said.

Jackson was about to embark on a comeback tour, including 50 dates in London, which aimed to resurrect his fortunes.

Close friend Uri Geller told the Press Association that it may have been the "stress" of Jackson's London comeback that killed him.

Speaking from his home in Sonning, Berkshire, he said: "I guess the stress, the anticipation and the passion he was emitting from his heart, wanting to do this comeback so badly, maybe that got to him. That is all I can think, that maybe the stress killed him."

Fears were sparked for Jackson's health last month when four of his This Is It concert dates were pushed back, but organisers insisted the dates were moved due to the sheer magnitude of the spectacle.

Jackson last toured 12 years ago when he played 82 shows in 58 cities for the HIStory tour. At the World Music Awards in London in November 2006 he performed just a few lines from We Are The World.

He has spent time living outside the United States since his 2005 acquittal on child molestation charges.

Jackson has three children, Michael Joseph Jackson Junior, Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince "Blanket" Michael Jackson II.

This the official release of the Guardian .

Its been almost a year since I joined my job and it was high time to resume my interest in games.Be it online or outdoor ,I had really put a curtain on them.So I decided to explore the web for online gaming sites.Thats when I found this realy interesting site.BEing a great fan of the game of billiards,this was ultimate fun for me.
The site offers multiplayer games like billiards that can be played by friends online.I quickly invited few of my friends and after a long long gap of almost 2 years,we had the best fun once could ever have.The best thing about the site is that being fast it provides you a real time gaming experience unlike other sites which take ages even to load.
I am really impressed and so were my friends.

A good mail

This is a test for Intelligent People. I have determined that you qualify.
The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and will tell you if you are qualified to be a professional. Scroll down for each answer. The questions are NOT that difficult. But don't scroll down UNTIL you have answered the question!

1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?

The correct answer is:
Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe, and close the door.
This question tested whether you tend to do simple things
In an overly complicated way.

2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?

Did you say, Open the refrigerator,
Put in the elephant,
And close the
Refrigerator?
Wrong Answer.

Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe,
Put in the elephant and close the door.
This tested your ability to think through the repercussions of your previous actions.


3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend....except one.
Which animal does not attend?
Correct Answer: The Elephant.

The elephant is in the refrigerator.
You just put him in there.

This tested your memory.

Okay, even if you did not answer the first three questions correctly,
You still have one more chance to show your true abilities.

4. There is a river you must cross but it is used by crocodiles, and you do not have a boat. How do you manage?

Correct Answer: You jump into the river and swim across.
Have you not been listening?
All the crocodiles are attending the animal conference.
This tested whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.
According to Anderson Consulting Worldwide, around 90% of the professionals they tested got all questions wrong, but many preschoolers got several correct answers.
AndersonConsulting says this conclusively disproves the theory that most professionals have the brains of a four-year-old.

The Best Of Times

I was very seriously looking for a really trusted site to buy a watch for my friend.He is leaving abroad for his higher studies and this was the best time to gift him .
Watches have become the most gifted and the most loved articles.So I decided to do the same.Searching for a place to buy the watch was not really tough as we had a long history of purchasing at the Alex's Jewellers Best of time exclusive sales division.
This time I was really happy to have noticed the online portal of the division and I should say that the shopping experience was really fabulous.www.bestoftime.com provides the ultimate stop to every person who wants to purchase a genuine Rolex watch at substantial discounts.
There are separate and easily browsable links for men and women separately.The site is a hundred percent hacker proof one where any purchase can be made with trust.Toll free calls and also online live assistance can be seeked for any sort of doubts that may arise.Fast free shipping is assured.
I actually was dumb struck at the huge collection at every desirable budget and requirements.The display of watches is so attractive that it makes the thought of going to a shop a second one.I would rather shop online for the best watch at the best prize.

How to make a simple BOMB ?

I am not as dangerous as the title suggests.Of the numerous attempts that my team mates and me took to master the dos and donts of practical electronics,this was particularly insane and interesting.This was a complex circuit to make the simple task of dialing a telephone as difficult as possible.Believe me we were building this to assist disabled people to dial a phone..even a normal human would look desperately disabled with this piece of electronic appliance.

We were masters is building or trying to build things like these.Those moments of happiness when something worked or even if something burnt are the ones I would cherish forever.

And why this title??This was the title my friend had given to this video in YouTube and this is what that made this video very famous.Some very hilarious comments have been posted there.

Here is the link to the page.

Now add up the total number of points.

OVER 60 POINTS:

Others see you as someone they should "handle with care."
You're seen as vain, self-centered and one who is extremely domineering. Others may admire you, wishing they could be more like you, but don't always trust you, hesitating to become too deeply involved with you.

51 TO 60 POINTS:

Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive personality; a natural leader, one who's quick to make decisions, though not always the right ones. They see you as bold and adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of the excitement you radiate.

41 TO 50 POINTS:

Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical and always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who'll always cheer them up and help them out.

31 TO 40 POINTS:

Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful and practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get over it if that trust is ever broken.

21 TO 30 POINTS:

Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It would really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment, expecting you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then usually decide against it. They think this reaction is caused partly by your careful nature.

UNDER 21 POINTS:

People think you are shy, nervous and indecisive, someone who needs looking after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions and who doesn't want to get involved with anyone or anything! They see you as a worrier who always sees problems that don't exist. Some people think you're boring. Only those who know you well know that you aren't.

The translation of my poem

Its really a happy feeling to get your poem translated to other languages.My first poetry attempt in Tamil was translated to English.The translator is a person whom you all love and I adore him to a great extent.Will reveal his name later.My attempts of rhyming and few places of philosophy that I tried in my native language might be missing though.

Now to the translation

A garden and some dew drops

Those drops on the roses glitter in your eyes as forms of beauty .Beneath your feet are the rest which have fallen in the wrong place.Even man is the same-falling and rising are the part of life
Its ,where and when of your fall that speaks of YOU even after your times.

The real YOU is in the way you rise up from the ashes.Mohandas who fell in a platform stood up as Gandhi.Narendran who fell in a beach stood up as Vivekananda.Edison who fell a thousand times stood up as the father of electricity.If they had not,pages of history would have been a lot different.When you fall and rise back,u rewrite a page in the history.

He who touches the clouds from an aeroplane is a man.The great man is the one who leaps from where he stands to the clouds.It was the fall of a meteor that triggered the origin of life
Seeds not only fall ,they also get buried to rise up as mighty trees.Its not just the sweets that make a complete feast-both the sweet n the sour are needed.Even life is a feast.

When you admire your face in the mirror you fail to notice the shadow behind .Life's the same.In the smile of your victory there is some one's defeat and vice versa.When some one talented emerges you taste your defeat.Grow your talents in a way that you can never be defeated.

Even before the first drop of tears due to your losses touch the ground ,you must have climbed up to the next step in your attempts.There are thousand others to brood over loses.Atleast in this you are not a one in thousand.When you lose rejoice over the fact that you have found some one to win over.
THE END

Atlast a woman can shop fast

The last thing a man would agree to do is to go on a shopping with a women.Girl friend,wife,mother ,sister ,any woman for that case.The case gets worse when a woman is shopping for her clothes especially her jeans.Women tend to have great tastes and unsatiable desires and it takes a lot of time for then to actually make selection of their jeans.Its not the women alone to be blamed.The range and choices in the jean are so much that it tends to be a real confusion in many cases.

Now here is an ultimate solution for the weeping men and confused women from the best in business.It offers a very comprehensive guide for a woman to make a right choice in her purchase.The womens jean buying guide page of shop wiki perhaps is the best of its kind Ive seen.Jeans have been categorised in terms of the body type,the component style ,the designer range etc.Every single aspect has been provided in detail like the cost,size ,the perfect choice for one's body type etc.

I mailed the womens jean buying guide page to my friend.She wanted a low rise .She clicked on the link provided.An array of a huge collection of low rise jean varieties from numerous vendors came on the display.She narrowed them down with popping eyes to the cost range that she desired.Then she was directed to the shop links and she made an instant purchase.What could have taken a day's time easily was now over in few clicks.She was thrilled and so am I.So is everyone who had tried the site.
