petrol in pakistan is Rs 17 per liter
In malaysia Rs 18 Rs per liter
In India Rs 48 per liter
Why this difference in Asia it self ? World market CRUDE OIL IS NOT THE REASON FOR THIS. It's all gain for private owners ? As we are the general public,we have to raise our voice or at least let's raise through E-mails,pl forward this information to all Indians who care.
It has been calculated that if every one did not purchase a drop of petrol for one day and all at the same time,oil companies would chock on stockpiles.
At the same time,it would hit the entire industry with a net loss of over 4.6 Billion Dollars, which affects the bottom lines of these oil companies.
Therefore 'THURSDAY SEPETEMBER 22 nd HAS BEEN FORMALLY DECLARED BY OUR PUBLIC 'STICK IT UP THEIR BEHIND DAY AND THE PEOPLE OF INDIAN NATION SHOULD NOT BUY A SINGLE DROP OF PETROL THAT DAY.
The only way this can be done is if you forward this information to as many as you can and as quickly a you can to get the word out. Waiting for the GOVERMENT to step in and control the prices is not going to happened,i thing every one know ..this what happened to the reduction and control in prices that the Arab Nations promised few weeks ago ?
Also we have to remember, not only is the price of petrol going up,but at the same time Airlines and Trucking companies are forced to increase their prices,which affect the prices of every thing that is shipped prices for things like food,clothing etc,too would increase.
We can make a difference,if they don't get the message after one day.we have to do it again and again.
Please do your part and spread the word and forward this information to all who you know.Mark your calendars and make SEPTEMBER 22 A DAY THAT THE INDIAN CITIZENS SAY 'ENOUGH IS ENOUGH'.

DATA FORMETS
Any programmer who has used version control will find the idea of -not- using it painful, and for good reason. Nevertheless, there are a few projects here for which it’s simply unavailable. As a general rule, any time we’ve had this issue at Tenthline the problem lies with the data formats we’re using.
I really dislike mailing documents back and forth. It’s inefficient, and it’s very easy for one of the authors to end up out of the loop, if the latest revision doesn’t get mailed out to everyone. Nevertheless, that’s the infrastructure I’m currently stuck with, if only because of the nature of our clients. As per their demands, all changes must be tracked inpgm file type Microsoft Word documents. All hail the proprietary .doc format!
I’d rather track changes with a wiki, or, better yet, .rtf files and subversion, but thanks to the dependance on Microsoft’s own mechanisms, that’s not an option. Fortunately, we keep our own internal data on wikis, ensuring that I can always find the latest and up-to-date reference anytime.
On another note, Content Server, the CMS platform that Tenthline does a lot of development on, has built in version control, which isn’t bad, but it suffers from being entirely proprietary. Sometimes I appreciate having choice. Instead, Content Server keeps its data in a database which is largely inaccessible except through its own tools and UI. For end users, this isn’t bad. It’s certainly easier than getting them to manage their own solution. And the complex data stored by a CMS system more or less demands a database. For developers, however, the inability to access the flatpgm file type files of our own .jsp code can be a bit of a detriment when doing heavy duty development.
Another important function in image creation includes display. This enhances image management and manipulation. There are various image display attributes, which include anti-aliasing enhancement, dithering, contrast, brightness, gamma correction, Orientation, color reduction, rotation, and auto-aspect ratio. Some effects include wipe and blocks. Another major attribute of image display includes high-speed display. Display plays a role during printing because it enhances orientation of the image before printing. Printing functions include auto-color minimization, single/ multi-page printing, automatic sizing of a page as well as automatic centralization of printing pages. This enhances page placement to obtain an ideal print out. Another important function involved in image development includes transformation. For quality image creation, the SDK should concentrate on transformation of figures or images.
SENSITIVE IMAGE PASSWORD
We proposes a novel recognition-based image authentication system, named “AwaseE”. The features of the system are that it uses user’s personal photo collection, and it also introduces a “no answer” case in a verification of an authentication trial. Using the web-based prototype system, exploratory user experiments on feasibility and vulnerability were conducted. From the experiments on feasibility, it was clearly shown that Awase-E with personal photos are easy to memorize and recall for a long period of time, and its level is almost same as an authentication with a 4 digit number.
Moreover, people do not forget or confuse them after updating to new pass-images. There is, however, some degree of vulnerabilities to a guess attack. We also discuss a security level of the Awase-E against various attack methods, and conclude that the Awase-E improves the security against them both traditional attack methods and attack methods that are specialized for a recognition-based authentication.
CHEATING CRYPTOGRAPHY
Visual cryptography (VC) is a method of encrypting a secret image into shares such that stacking a sufficient number of shares reveals the secret image. Shares are usually presented in
transparencies. Each participant holds a transparency. Most of the previous research work on VC focuses on improving two parameters: pixel expansion and contrast. In this paper, we studied the
cheating problem in VC and extended VC. We considered the attacks of malicious adversaries who may deviate from the scheme in any way. We presented three cheating methods and applied them
on attacking existent VC or extended VC schemes. We improved one cheat-preventing scheme. We proposed a generic method that converts a VCS to another VCS that has the property of cheating
prevention. The overhead of the conversion is near optimal in both contrast degression and pixel expansion.

SMALL WORLD
It is well known that mobility increases the capacity of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) by reducing the number of relays for routing, prolonging the lifespan of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) by using mobile nodes in place of bottleneck static sensors, and ensuring network
connectivity in delay-tolerant networks (DTNs) using mobile nodes to connect different parts of a disconnected network. Trajectory planning and the coordination of mobile nodes
are two important design issues aiming to optimize or balance several measures, including delay, average number of relays, and moving distance. In this paper, we propose a new
controlled mobility model with an expected polylogarithmic number of relays to achieve a good balance among several contradictory goals, including delay, the number of relays,
and moving distance. The model is based on the small-world model where each static node has “short” link connections to its nearest neighbors and “long” link connections to other
nodes following a certain probability distribution. Short links are regular wireless connections whereas long links are implemented using mobile nodes. Various issues are
considered, including trade-offs between delay and average number of relays, selection of the number of mobile nodes, and selection of the number of long links. The effectiveness
of the proposed model is evaluated analytically as well as through simulation.

INDIAN CALCULATION
In India calculation of inflation is done by assuming WPI. WPI is the whole sale price index . but other than india some countries in the west and European countries calculate the inflation in terms of CPI. CPI is the consumer price index. in india whole sale price index comprise food commodities like fruits, sugar,vegitables, etc comprise the food basin. by all this stuffs the who sale price index is calculated by the whole sale price. developing countries like india inflation hits the middle class and lower class citizens. the basic food items needs for survival are hiked and becomes choose for the people. currently India s inflation is about 11.93% and experts say that it may increase up to 14%. the ruling GOVT failed to control inflation and it will play the major roll in the next years loksabha election campaign by the opposition parties in India.
I JOINED IN GYM
I dont go to gym mostly i am a foot ball player and the coach tells me to go to gym but i never go i just like to be on the field . I dont like to work indoors in gym and have great body like Arnie or Ronnie colman . But today i have joined a gym . Not only me along with me 5 other friends of mine have joined . All of us don't have interest in gym thougth the main reason that we have joined is that there is a girl in our place she is so beautifull and she has joined that gym last week and has been working out a lot it seems and so two of my friends have an eye on her . Even i like her too ha ha . So we have all joined the gym here and trying to make her our friend and then who ever is lucky will have her as lover or who knows she may even have a lover already and we will be made fools . All the best to us .

Lehmann Crisis-A lesson to Life
Hi Friends,
This article would be more useful for every one who starts their life and those who already in their account of life. The article , this time means a lot. One can understand the purpose of their life. Life once goes will never come back. So such precious Life is more important. This article describes about the " Lehmann Brothers" crisis which brought the American Economy under stack. I read this article through some website written by Yogesh Chhabria and I am sure that you would read this article. Have a nice day and stay kool.
It's an interesting article by Yogesh Chhabria,investor, entrepreneur,

This article describes about the " Lehmann Brothers" crisis which brought the American Economy under stack. I read this article through some website written by Yogesh Chhabria and I am sure that you would read this article. Have a nice day and stay kool.
It's an interesting article by Yogesh Chhabria,investor, entrepreneur,
educator and Happionaire.
" LATELY, I have been thinking a lot about the Lehman crisis. Spending money that they didn't have and going beyond their means is one of the main reasons for their situation today. In fact that is the cause for the current economic crisis in the US.
When I see all this happening, I can only remember the good old days. Then, karz was bad. People looked down upon those who took loans. Parents would not give their daughter's hand in marriage to a man with loans.
But of course, the times have changed now. Everyone I know has a loan. The buzz word is EMI (equated monthly installment). Today, you can buy everything on EMI - a house, a television, even an i-Pod. In fact I know of someone who just bought a fancy BMW 3 series on EMI, instead of buying a cheaper car outright with cash. I mostly prefer to take public transport, but then I am an old man with old thoughts!
Anyway, coming back to what caused the crisis.
Imagine having Rs 2 lakh in your bank account, no regular income, yet buying a house worth Rs 65 lakh, in the hope of selling it for a higher price.
Even if the price of the house fell by just 5 per cent (that is Rs 3 lakh), you will go bankrupt.
This is what Lehman Brothers did; with around USD 20 billion they went and bought assets worth over USD 600 billion. Isn't it suicidal and simply foolish?
I am sure things would have been different, had I been the head of Lehman brothers. But who wants an old conservative man like me to head a complex financial institution.
But there are a few lessons that we can learn:
1.Live a balanced life and avoid overspending.
2. Don't buy things we don't need.
3. Don't buy Branded goods.
4. Don't buy excess Food, Cloths, Cosmetics, Footwear, electronics and Fashion accuracies. Just think before you buy.
Tip: World still has a lot of growth ahead and the future holds immense opportunities for us. Let us make the most of it and save and invest it wisely instead of wasting our precious little on things we don't need.
5. Try to balance life with work (No one is happy to work in their professions).
6. Don't stress out your self, after work try to do some extra activities like swimming,
yoga, walking, running where you can divert your mind from stress.
A thumb rule: Health is more important than money.
7. Try to understand each other (Wife and Husband) in financial matters and help each other.
Tip: As soon as you get your monthly salary, set aside a fixed amount, usually 35 per cent, for insurance, savings and investments. You can then spend the rest.
8. Not all loans are bad. Loans that are 'need based' (home loans, education loans) can always find a place in your finances against those that are largely 'want based' (Credit cards, personal loans, car loans).
9. Borrow only if repayment is financially comfortable.
A thumb rule: Keep EMIs within 35 to 45 per cent of your monthly income.
In that respect, there is one American who I really respect - Warren Buffet. He has lived in the same ordinary house for over three decades, drives his own medium sized car and leads an extremely regular 'middle class' life. If that's all it takes for the richest person on earth to be happy, why do all of us need to take extra stress just so that we can get things which aren't even essential?"

Sports- Ghambir at Peak
The India opener Gautam Gambhir, who has appealed his one-Test ban for elbowing Shane Watson, is regularly on the lookout for a confrontation when he is batting, according to Australia's Michael Hussey. Gambhir, who is the leading run-scorer in the series with 463, was punished for his run-in with Watson on the opening day of the third Test in Delhi and also argued heatedly with Simon Katich.
"He looks around for it [chat], to be honest," Hussey said. "It hasn't been a plan of ours to go at him and talk or whatever ... but I must admit he does go around the field looking to engage certain players and looking to get involved and that sort of thing.
"So maybe that is part of his character, looking for a clash to try to pump himself up a bit more. He's always looking to engage, not so much 'g'day how are you going', but an intense look. It's quite funny really."

PHONE THAT WORKS..
It might be one of the simplest devices thats become a part of our lives. But the design and working of a telephone is not known to everyone. Its a simple instrument which can be comprehended by anyone. 
As you can see, it contains three parts and they are all simple:
As you can see, it contains three parts and they are all simple:
- A switch to connect and disconnect the phone from the network. The switch is generally called the Hook Switch. It connects when you lift the handset.
- A Speaker.
- A Microphone - Carbon granules compressed between two thin metal plates. Sound waves from your voice compress and decompress the granules, changing the resistance of the granules and modulating the current flowing through the microphone.
The dialling from this simple phone is very easy by rapidly tapping the hook switch. If you pick up and rapidly tap the switch hook four times, the phone company's switch will recognise that you have dialled a "4".
Now how does two people gets connected through a telephone? The following are the steps involved:
- The signal leaves your house to a telephone box outside.
- The local exchange is connected to all the phones in a small geographical area.
- From the local exchanges, calls are routed to the main exchange.
- The main exchange may route the call to another main exchange and the reverse process follows.
MUSIC TO THE EARS

Utah, date here—Snowlist.com, an online resource for mountain enthusiasts living in and visiting Utah, is making it easier to try skiing for the first time—or to hit the slopes after a long hiatus.
The web site’s classified ad listing not only offers ski equipment for sale or trade, but also an ever-changing list of free gear that can help both skiers who are new to the sport—and those who need to update their equipment before they return to the mountains.
“The Free Stuff listing gives news skiers a chance to test out the sport by
minimizing their investment in ski gear,” said Snowlist.com founder Sarah Langridge. “And it’s a great way to clean out your closet and get rid of equipment you no longer need.”
Placing classified ads on snowlist.com is free.
Carter Gregory, a former ski racer and now Snowbird Race Team coach, grew up on the slopes of Park City, where his dad Tom taught him to ski. Last year, Carter was able to return the favor by replacing his dad’s outdated skis—for free.
After spending more than 20 years on the National Ski Patrol, the elder Gregory, took a break from skiing. When he was ready to start again, Carter knew the transition would be easier for his dad with a pair of skis that were more ‘new school.’ He found a free pair of Volkl Cross Rangers on Snowlist.com.
“The free price tag was perfect and it was a real boost to his enjoyment of skiing again,” said Carter Gregory.
Snowboarder Mickey Vriens was excited to share his joy of sliding down mountains with his eight year-old son Ashton. But it wasn’t long before Ashton wanted to give downhill skiing a try too.
“I didn’t want to spend the money to outfit him with alpine gear, but I was able to find a free pair of kids Rossignols on Snowlist.com,” said Vriens. “This made both of us happy… the price was right and he is now learning both sports. We’ll see which one he prefers in the long run.”
Because free stuff listed in the classified ads of Snowlist.com tends to move quickly, Langridge recommends that online visitors sign up for an RSS feed on the site, which will alert them by email when new listings for free equipment are posted.

RELIEF BALLS COUNTER DISTRESS.
