Gold: the best way to preserve your assets

I was wondering about some way to preserve the assets one has. If someone, a millionare, an individual or a company, wants to preserve it's asset, what do they do?? In this world where there is no certainty of a stable economy, a market crash or raising tensions between countries, is there any surety that the asset can be preserve to the best of it's value??

What, do you think, is the best thing to do then??

The Answer is Gold. Sites dealing with Gold Coins or Aurum advisors could be some place where you can find information on how to protect your assets, preserving in the form of the Gold Metal in uncertain world.

Gold, is the ultimate form of preserving one's asset, the best metal for any individual, family, or institution to preserve their assets.

Embarrasing Google Street View images













Google was forced to remove hundreds of pictures from its street view mapping service within hours of its launch facing complaints from people who said that the system breached their privacy.

The street view gives 360-degree views of 25 cities and towns allowing users to take virtual tours from their computers or mobile phones. The initial laumch hit hundreds of thousands of visitors when it began on thursday; but google faced a deluge of complaints from homeowners and members of the public shown by its cameras, who demanded that photographs be taken down.

Blogger (including me!!) and internet sites posted embarrasing scenes captured by the service. Among the pictures removed were a man vomiting on a pavement, one leaving a sex shop and another entering a sex shop; another guy being arrested. These images were blacked out later with the message: "This image is no longer available". However, street view users were able to travel a few meters down the road and turn the camera back to see the same people from a different angle.

Google spent more than a year coveing 22,000 miles to collect images with car-mounted cameras (one such car can be seen in the photo a the top of this article). Some people complained that viewers could zoom into the open windows of their homes which is a sole matter of privacy intrusion.

The company promised to remove any pictures to which individuals objected. "We put tools in place to allow people to remove images quickly".

The hanging bridge

hanging bridge
Early morning today, we'd planned for a trip to the hanging bridge at the locality. The bridge is situated east of our college campus and we'd to walk across the unfinised iron bridge and the Post Graduate students' block (Block H).

We planned to start our journey at around 5:00am but as usual, as an engineering student, we were late and started at 6:00am (IS dragged me out of my bed!!). We'd never been there before, only that we'd seen the bridge from a distant.

In the fotopTAM, Djen, IS, n Romen (Rishi took this foto)

The hanging bridge must've been built many years ago as the side steel fibres have already begun to snapped off. A lot of wood planks from the floor below were missing and we'd to take hold of the side steel threads to keep our balance. At first we saw only a few gaps but after reaching the middle part, we found a lot of planks missing. We took a few video shots while making the crossing and i guess you must laugh your heart out if you see us doin' that. The bridge was swaying a lot, the water below was flowing and it was enough to make you dizzy, to make you lose your balance. But as we were crossing one of the big gaps, a local school boy came and just walked up ahead of us as if there were no gaps at all. We just stood there amazed!!

I took this one with my cell phone and it's not that clear as the photo above.. and by the way, i'm thinking of uploading the videos at youtube. I'll post the links later.. do have a look.

Girls and bubbles

What do you know about the similarity between GIRLS and BUBBLES??

When i speak of a girl, i mean the girl in general and I guess, i've been thinking about it watching this picture on my right which i happened to render it myself a couple of weeks ago, that there are certain things that keeps the two connected.

The first thing is 'fragility'. Girls are fragile, so is a bubble.. Whether you agree me or not, thats not the question right now. It's me bloggin here and it's my thoughts that's being written here... (care to leave a comment..!!)

And the second thing is that - You can never keep hold of a girl... nor can you a bubble. The moment you try to keep hold and grabs a girl, she tends to get vanished; a bubble on the other hand bursts!! What you need, is a constant support to the bubble, blow some air from your mouth (even if you are out of air, you've to) keeping is afloat, not letting it touch anything, or it bursts up. Similarly, a girl needs constant support, physically as well as emotionally, and if you are not the one supporting, she needs it from some one else.

Third; look at your own reflection on the curve surface of the Bubble. You see You, but not yourself. When you are with a girl, you are different; you are not what you were, and you tend to change, if not always. On the bubble, your face is distorted becoz of the curvature and whether it makes you more handsome or less, that depends on your looks. It's the same the other way too.

Are women too powerful for a man.. that man opted for changes that he thinks he should make or he can make but in the long run, he finds it wrong?? I guess so.

Man cry too!!

It's been my experience and I've seen enough men crying for a lot of different reason - the loss of a love one, heart broke, feeling loved or feeling happy and blah blahs... The only thing i keep wondering is why do men tend to hide it... well in a way different to women??

Well everybody does, both females i mean, try to hide but with men, it's different. Men do cry, and hardly men get to know that crying makes one feel better!! Perhaps men think that crying doesn't really sound macho, but what we are to know is, there is nothing such as a macho... it's just an ideal theory.

Next time, if you happen to be a man reading this post, try crying... over anything. See how gud you feel after that..lolzzz

Sergey Brin's Blogging


Perhaps you all know Sergey Brin, the Google Co-founder. I just came to know that he's started his own blog at http://too.blogspot.com/

"Welcome to my personal blog. While Google is a play on googol, too is a play on the much smaller number - two. It also means "in addition", as this blog reflects my life outside of work." - Sergey Brin
The above is what the first post read. The post was dated 18th September and by that, I could just comment, despite of all the bloggers' stuffs and services Google is providing, he is a REAL LATE BLOGGER!!! I don't think he owns any other blogs as per Matt Cutts's remark. 

Keeping in track of his blog, Sergey has the Google Analytics  installed on his blog; perhaps knowing that a lot of people will be giving him free suggestions on Search Engine optimization or on DIY - tweaking blog template.. which would sound rather funny if for the Google creator!!

In one of the short 2 or 3 posts at current, Sergey mentioned about the likely development of Parkinson’s Disease on him and which might affect him when he’s older.
