Some the basic rules of life, I would praise and would like to try and follow, found this in a newspaper so thought be documenting it.
1. How you think is everything: Always be positive. Think success, not failure. Beware of a negative environment.
2. Decide upon you true dreams and goals: Write down your specific goals and develop a plan to reach them.
3. Take Action: Goals are nothing without action. Don't be afraid to get started. Just do it.
4. Never stop learning: Always get training and try to learn and acquire skills
5. Be persistent and work hard: Success is a marathon not a sprint, Never give up.
6. Learn to analyze details: Get all the facts, all the input. Learn from your mistakes.
7. Focus your time and money:Don't let other people or things distract you.
8. Don't be afraid to innovate; be different: Following the herd is a sure way to mediocrity
9. Deal and communicate with people effectively: Learn to understand and motivate others
10.Be honest and dependable; take responsibility: Otherwise don't follow No. 1-9

Hello everyone..Its been a while since I blogged, and been a while looking what's going on around us. so pretty much everything is bad around, no good market, no jobs, every single damn thing is badly hit over the world. The economic stimulus would be a relief for some and would not be a good count for some, also the recent G-20 meeting that took place in UK has promised to remove recession from roots with promising of an injection of a trillion dollars through different leading markets over the globe. I was reading new today morning, while another disastrous event came into the news, having a gunman enter in Binghamton, New york.He apparently killed himself after killing 13 people. It's pretty much bad everywhere around. Even the technical market is bad around, no one is sure about there next day's job(horrified with the thinking of a pink slip on the desk). Nonetheless, also a small magnitude of earth quake had hit Morgan hill,California which made people dance for a while, it lasted for like 10 sec and had a magnitude of 4.4 scale.
The umemployment ratio is rising up and other issues are still on hand. So its pretty much difficult to survive out in such a recessive situation. Experienced are ready to get them replaced for entry level positions, and the word Entry-level feels like has erased from the recruiter dictionary, they keep a posting for Entry level position and expect the employee to have an experience of 3-5 years, which is insane. I know, I think I should stop crticizing the market lets talk something good in the market which would help us boost ourselves, and do some productive work for the company or apply to some more positions( for the umemployed ones). Stocks are good after a quite downfall, they gained for the 4th week straight, so it sa good sign that market is improving slowly and steadily; seems that the bail out money is showing up slowly in the market. On the other side this is the best time for you to buy some land(if had a planned of), open up a company, it pretty easy and cheap right now, you get everything for half the price which was double the current, a while ago. So good news for new starters its the right time to start your self, I myself am loooking for something productive to start don't know what to but still thinking and thinking. On the other side its good that people will get the taxes back as its refund time, also some of the lucky ones are eligible for a stimulus this time, congratualtions to them don't know what are the eligibilities for that to grab.( I myself am looking for it please post it someone finds it :)). In all happy ending, just keep fingers crossed that market is improving and keeps on the same pace!!
Have a Happy weekend to all!! I am going to watch some movies, this weekend feel free to post your suggestions for it.
Thanks

it's worth watching the co-incidences and the moment of the capture taken, the photographer must be a very accurate and a aligned human. Really nice work.

Largest Coordinated ATM Rip-off Ever Nets $9+ Million in 30 Minutes
The most sensational robbery ever, robbing 9+ Million in 30 Minutes with only 100 ATM Cards:
With only 100 compromised ATM cards thieves were able to grab $9 million bucks from the banking system in a new style of attack. Law enforcement sources told Fox 5 it's one of the most frightening well-coordinated heists they've ever seen. "We've seen similar attempts to defraud a bank through ATM machines but not, not anywhere near the scale we have here," FBI Agent Ross Rice told Fox 5. "We've never seen one this well coordinated," the FBI said.
How did the hackers steal $9 million in one 30-minute time period using only 100 ATM cards you ask? That shouldn’t be possible given the daily limits (usually about $500/day) placed on all ATM cards. Well it turns out that the hackers applied military like precision to old ATM Scam techniques and added a touch of devious ingenuity to pull this one off. Here is a look at how the theft was perpetrated.
First, the bad guys had to obtain the ATM cards. To accomplish this they hacked into RBS WorldPay and stole at least 100 payroll cards. According to RBS WorldPay, “Payroll cards are used by a growing number of U.S. firms to pay wages to employees. A payroll card is a reloadable stored value card that can be used at any point of sale that accepts credit and debit cards.”
Second, the bad guys had to figure out how to reload the cards. To accomplish this they hacked into RBS WorldPay’s systems once again. Once this was done they had the power to reload the payroll cards with new fake deposits that they could turn into cold hard cash via an ATM withdrawal.
Third, the bad guys had to clone the card info they stole into thousands of real ATM payroll cards. This is easily and cheaply done using various over the counter card printing devices. Given that this market is completely non-regulated, anyone can buy all of the gear necessary to make your very own credit, ATM, Bank, etc. Cards.
Fourth, the bad guys needed to recruit an Army of “cashers” to physically go to an ATM machine with the newly minted counterfeit (but valid) payroll cards and withdrawal cash. Cashers is the name given to the street-level thugs that do the actual cash withdrawals at ATMs. It is hypothesized that there were dozens of them recruited for this scam.

Cashers is the name given to the street-level thugs that do the actual cash withdrawals at ATMs. It is hypothesized that there were dozens of them recruited for this scam.
Fifth, the bad guys developed an incredibly precise global attack plan. It is alleged that they mapped out exactly what ATMs they would hit, the order they would hit them in and on what global time schedule. This attack plan covered at least 49 different cities around the world for a total of approximately 130 ATM machines. The cities targeted include Atlanta, Chicago, Montreal, New York, Moscow and Hong Kong. The whole attack was choreographed to happen within a 30-minute timeframe. It is the first time anyone has seen this type of precision and coordination achieved in an ATM rip-off.
Finally, the perpetrators briefed all of their “cashers” on the plan of attack. Then on November 8th, 2008 they launched their attack. All 130 of the targeted ATM machines around the world were hit during a 30-minute time period. During the attack the bad guys reloaded (via their hack) the payroll cards as needed. When all was said and done it is thought that the thieves walked away with over $9 Million bucks in cold cash.
As far as I can tell the FBI still does not have any suspects in custody from this theft. They do have wanted posters out with pictures of some of the “cashers” caught on the ATM cameras. If you know any of these nice folks please report them to the FBI.
RBS Worldpay has issued a press release stating they are working to resolve the security issues associated with this fraud so it doesn't happen again.
In addition to the 100 cards used to commit the cash haul, a statement by RBS WorldPay says, "Certain personal information of approximately 1.5 million cardholders and other individuals may have been affected and, of this group, Social Security numbers of 1.1 million people may have been accessed." This exposure is due to the successful hacks performed during the payroll card attack.

Exploding cellphone kills Chinese man
Its weird to hear but a man dies, and the reason for his death becomes an explosion of is own cellphone
Here's the thing about batteries: they store energy. Lots of it. Channeled correctly, that energy does really awesome things for us -- but channeled chaotically, and... well, you know where this is going, don't you? A man shopping in a Lenovo store in mainland China has been killed after the phone in his chest pocket exploded, severing arteries and leading to massive blood loss. The make and model of the phone and battery have yet to be identified, but seeing how this is the seventh high-profile case of an exploding phone in China in the last six years, it really gives you pause before installing that shady off-brand juice, doesn't it?
