Stranded in the desert trying to quench my thirst,

Somehw I feel deviated wid this mirage of lust,

Why does it always have to be lack of self trust,

I hope I could leap through this as its nt my first,

Sulking in this moment I wish I could burst,

Mayb this is the right time 2 get rid of the rust,

Watching the pendulum move back and forth,

Reminds me of times when I was so rough,

Wish I could find out the secret 2 be as smooth as the surf,

Aggrivated from this stochastic which pushes me to the turf,

God its irritating as It’s the only thing trying 2 shake my self trust,

Mayb I wasn’t meant 2 be so wise but 2 only b in pursuit wisdom,

I dun care how hard it gets as it only makes me stronger and closer,

To the inner light which I was always meant 2 seek!!..

a good strategy to avoid piracy

2012-11-02T20:21:00.000-07:00

the launch of windows 8 has come with a surprise since it is being sold in on rs 1999 @ 75 % discount uptil jan 2013. its a good move to avoid piracy and i believe people should buy the product when they are offering you at such a cheap price. the only reason piracy exist because there was a huge difference between the original cost of acquiring the product and people affordability when companies narrow down this gap people should appreciate it.
hands up for microsoft good job!!..
further details of how to purchase or upgrade your existing windows can be viewed in the link below

Car with 100 kmpl mileage!!...

2012-10-28T01:10:00.001-07:00

Most of us would be fed up of rising fuel costs and wished for a alternative. We all know at some point in future we will see automobiles on alternative sources of energy in use among general people. As of now the hybrid cars are beyond the budget of many and the segment is still at nascent stage in many countries.In times to come we can see healthy competition in this segment out of which not only the consumer benefits or the producer but environment also here is a winner!!..

Tata Megapixel offers 100 kmpl mileage

Combining a lithium ion phosphate battery and an on-board petrol engine generator for recharging on the move, the Tata Megapixel offers a range of up to 900 km with a single tank of fuel. With the petrol prices rising to record highs on a regular basis, will Tata put this dream vehicle into production? Only time will tell...

Tata Motors presented at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show the Tata Megapixel, a new four-seater city-smart global range extended electric vehicle (REEV) concept for the performance-seeking and environment-conscious motorist anywhere in the world.

Combining a lithium ion phosphate battery and an on-board petrol engine generator for recharging on the move, the Tata Megapixel offers a range of up to 900 km (with a single tank of fuel), path-breaking CO2 emission of just 22 gm / km and fuel economy of 100 km / litre (under battery only power).

The class-leading ‘Zero Turn’ drive system of the Tata Pixel (shown at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show) has been taken to an even higher level of manoeuvrability in the Tata Megapixel.

The car’s electric drive has four independent electric motors, one at each wheel. When parking, the electric hub motors drive the wheels in opposite directions, while the front wheels are turned at an acute angle, enabling an exceptional 2.8 metre turning radius.

The at-home charging system is an as innovative induction charging system. The car has simply to be parked over the induction pad for charging to begin.

The Tata Megapixel is as distinctive in elegantly melding Indian uniqueness – in colours, graphic themes or materials – with global styling preferences.

The integrated lamp and grille graphics sweep back over the front wheel arches to render a dynamic front end.

The built-in large touchscreen HMI, at the centre of the instrument panel, thus becomes a common access point for the repertoire of the smart device and for controlling the functions of the car, like temperature, ventilation, driving modes and performance.

It is echoed on the panoramic roof, creating a harmony between sun & shade and sense of interior space. The floating C-pillar and wrap-around belt line finisher integrate perfectly with the sculpted body surface, flowing freely to the rear and encapsulating the 5-spoke wheel design.

A double-sliding door system and the car’s B-pillar less design make entry/exit easy, besides superb visibility.

The battery layout and hub motors maximize the interior package. So, the Tata Megapixel comfortably accommodates four adults with luggage.

The front seats are cantilevered on the central tunnel, releasing floor space for additional storage. Light leather trims and rose metal details accentuate the joyous marriage of richness of tradition and innovativeness of technology.

This fusion is heightened by an advanced human machine interface (HMI). The console docking point can connect a smart phone with the car.he Tata Megapixel denotes Tata Motors’ progression from the Tata Pixel, based on the Tata Nano and a city car concept for Europe, reflecting the company’s future design directionpeaking on the occasion, Mr. Prakash M. Telang, Managing Director - India Operations, Tata Motors, said, “The Tata Megapixel, developed by our design centres in India, the UK and Italy, is our idea of a city car for discerning motorists in any megacity of the world.

its a good start by Tatas with such a car and we hope to see such cars by various other company and many more new segments in future!!...

The at-home charging system is an as innovative induction charging system. The car has simply to be parked over the induction pad for charging to begin.
The Tata Megapixel is as distinctive in elegantly melding Indian uniqueness – in colours, graphic themes or materials – with global styling preferences.
The integrated lamp and grille graphics sweep back over the front wheel arches to render a dynamic front end.
It is echoed on the panoramic roof, creating a harmony between sun & shade and sense of interior space. The floating C-pillar and wrap-around belt line finisher integrate perfectly with the sculpted body surface, flowing freely to the rear and encapsulating the 5-spoke wheel design.
A double-sliding door system and the car’s B-pillar less design make entry/exit easy, besides superb visibility.

look wht beats mini ipad!!

http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/tech/hardware/iball-slide-3g-7334-android-tablet-to-be-made-available-this-week/articleshow/16982223.cms

chk out this article by economic times :P!!..obviously it dosent beat mini ipad but look at the features in juz rs 10k even though it sounds attractive the tablet market is flooded with varieties and i dont understand why would any company like to enter such a saturated market !!... we have seen company launching tablets one after another i hope they realize whts going to happen when they pile up a huge inventory !!.. with a vst number of varieties available the marketshare is going to split so even if the company manages to enter this huge entry barrier they need to make sure they get enough besides technology market is shortlived with new features coming every next day !!... so u need 2 breakeven soon or else ur heading fr trouble.
the tablet market has grown but it can definitely not replace the laptop and smartphones having almost same features i believe the future is brighter there as tablet market wont last long !!.. ppl dont have the patience to carry a smartphone ,table & a laptop. In which cellphone is a must cuz ppl can carry it wid ease beacause of its size and carrying table & laptops will always be a problem cuz of the size..
i see the demand for tablet juz being because of something new and fresh which wont last for long. even though its addictive people will soon realize that their life is only filled with gadgets and source of social media and its time they have had enough of it !!...

PESSIMISM IN MARKET

2012-10-25T09:50:00.002-07:00

most of the analysts predicting a global slowdown which is pretty much evident but lets take a look at how can we benefit from this slowdown

i was going through a few websites which tracked crude and metals prices where i observed they are estimating a further price decrease with low demand for these commodities

lets look at how do we arrive at low demand for commodities ?

slowing economy means that there is less consumption leading to slow in production due to increase in inventory and holding cost of inventory and decreasing margins certainly if ur a businessman u would lower u would want 2 slowdown ur production and not pile up more inventory

clearly there is a demand supply mismatch prices are currently high and due to piled up inventory suppliers now want 2 clear their stock and get consumers intrested is reduce price this continues unless the price is truely appealing to consumers where they auctually buy the product!!..

but consumers are not they only people purchasing the product during this process the traders loose out on confidence and in fear of a further price decline reduce on trade and play it safe thats y during these periods we see many companies have more cash in hand rather and comparitively reducing turnover further punishing the price of commodities

in this environment of pessimism i still feel every asset has a intrinsic value and any value below it is a good deal

the only problem is how do i arrive at that intrinsic value and does the market sync with the value?...

Unending race

2012-08-26T01:50:00.002-07:00

I can see people running, running 2 win a race,

But I can’t see people finishing with a clean trace,

All that rouge and struggle seemed worthy during the race,

Helping them to achieve nothing but big disgrace,

But somehow now they wish for a clean slate,

As the day begins we all end up in some sought of race,

Some unwilling to participate while others ready to face,

Unsympathetic life seems when we can’t decide fate,

I wish I din have to run as I dun like this pace,

Mayb someday I can walk out of this showcase,

Mayb not wid medals but wid few smiling face!...

Forgiveness

2012-08-12T23:57:00.003-07:00

Fear is like fire it either burns u or every thing that sorrunds u,

I never wanted to b in such anger but I din think I had a choice 2,

Surely I could have dealt it in another way but I din want it 2 b true,

Hoping that it was juz a bad dream and someone would wake me up soon,

But I guess it was destined to hapen and mayb the cause wuld b u,

Felt my heart was bleeding from the beating it took frm u,

U were like family but i guess it wasn’t enough fr u,

Unexpected and unresisted you tried 2 break us apart but u couldn’t manage 2,

I think nw u must b esctatic as fukd ur self up 2,

I nvr thgt of seeking revenge as its juz fr fools like u,

I juz tried to heal myself frm the wounds that came frm u,

I seek serenity and serenity alone even if that means forgiving u!!

2012-08-12T23:57:00.001-07:00

U can bluff the world u can bluff ur allies,

But some hw I feel I can see through ur eyes,

But somehw i feel I can hear u cry,

I see u in the stars I see u in the skies and somehw it seems i fail to realize,

Every day and every night wasn’t meant 2 b hw I fantasized,

I wish I could hug u and make u realize,

Even though something which always had 2 b unidentified

Our hearts would always be somewht unified !!!..

I wish u stopd bluffing aleast in front of my eyes,

Cuz it hurts when I can see through ur lies!!!...

Excel Crop Care !!..... E-COMMERCE

2012-02-05T22:47:00.000-08:00

"Company we visited"

we visited the company on 27th December 2011 and i must say it was a pleasant experience!!....

at first i we all seemed to be a little nervous of how to conduct the interview , we met dipesh and spoke to him about our project after his humble response we became a little confident!!!.... there was a lot to learn about the business and the way people take care of their business heritage.

they treated their customers like family members was pretty interesting and also i was convinced that their CSR activities was solely for CSR purpose and not a brand building stunt.

while conducting the interview we found out that use of IT could be optimized to a great extend in some areas..

Eg- thier website was just to show that they exist in this business and not more(information purpose)

http://www.excelcropcare.com/home.asp

i feel that they could further enhance and make use of this website by making use of search engine optimization,ad sense etc... also making the website more interactive they can make it interactive website where people can make a account and post their queries and also discuss on varous topics...

Another advantage by making the site interactive is that as they are also into exports the farmers abroad can access these websites and can seek help regarding various constrains.

ONE flaw is that the farmers in rural areas who are not educated cannot make use of these facilities!! :(

majority of times it happens that facilities are availed the benefit of which is taken only by rich farmers.

Besides all the learning it was a memorable day with joy with all the group members.

would love to have a business in agriculture sector in near future in as it is always been inclined towards this sector cauz its TAX FREE ;) lol... besides jokes also always wanted to see and know more about this field..
also contribute towards this sector in some way or the other!...

Today i just came across this album of remix songs by paul okenfold , he is basically a dj loves remixing songs... in this album he reveals which tracks rock his sets this month, and travel the globe during his many gigs, In Paul Oakenfold’s DJ Box of September 2011, you’ll find the tracks by Man With No Name, Deslaye, Neelix, Kulariss, Michael S. and many more!
Although i feel its an average album i liked Man With No Name - Floor Essence (Apogee Remix) , Michael S. - Mark Me Down (Mike Shiver Remix) , Man With No Name - Sugar Rush (Astrix Remix) much more than the others

Tata Megapixel offers 100 kmpl mileage

Tata Motors presented at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show the Tata Megapixel, a new four-seater city-smart global range extended electric vehicle (REEV) concept for the performance-seeking and environment-conscious motorist anywhere in the world.

Combining a lithium ion phosphate battery and an on-board petrol engine generator for recharging on the move, the Tata Megapixel offers a range of up to 900 km (with a single tank of fuel), path-breaking CO2 emission of just 22 gm / km and fuel economy of 100 km / litre (under battery only power).

The class-leading ‘Zero Turn’ drive system of the Tata Pixel (shown at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show) has been taken to an even higher level of manoeuvrability in the Tata Megapixel.

The car’s electric drive has four independent electric motors, one at each wheel. When parking, the electric hub motors drive the wheels in opposite directions, while the front wheels are turned at an acute angle, enabling an exceptional 2.8 metre turning radius.

The at-home charging system is an as innovative induction charging system. The car has simply to be parked over the induction pad for charging to begin.

The Tata Megapixel is as distinctive in elegantly melding Indian uniqueness – in colours, graphic themes or materials – with global styling preferences.

The integrated lamp and grille graphics sweep back over the front wheel arches to render a dynamic front end.

It is echoed on the panoramic roof, creating a harmony between sun & shade and sense of interior space. The floating C-pillar and wrap-around belt line finisher integrate perfectly with the sculpted body surface, flowing freely to the rear and encapsulating the 5-spoke wheel design.

A double-sliding door system and the car’s B-pillar less design make entry/exit easy, besides superb visibility.

The battery layout and hub motors maximize the interior package. So, the Tata Megapixel comfortably accommodates four adults with luggage.

The front seats are cantilevered on the central tunnel, releasing floor space for additional storage. Light leather trims and rose metal details accentuate the joyous marriage of richness of tradition and innovativeness of technology.

This fusion is heightened by an advanced human machine interface (HMI). The console docking point can connect a smart phone with the car.

The built-in large touchscreen HMI, at the centre of the instrument panel, thus becomes a common access point for the repertoire of the smart device and for controlling the functions of the car, like temperature, ventilation, driving modes and performance.

The Tata Megapixel denotes Tata Motors’ progression from the Tata Pixel, based on the Tata Nano and a city car concept for Europe, reflecting the company’s future design direction

Tata Motors’ displays also include the new generation Tata Safari Storme SUV, the Tata Aria crossover, the Tata Indigo Manza sedan and the Tata Indica Vista hatchback.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Prakash M. Telang, Managing Director - India Operations, Tata Motors, said, “The Tata Megapixel, developed by our design centres in India, the UK and Italy, is our idea of a city car for discerning motorists in any megacity of the world.

It is a result of the progress we have made on the Tata Pixel, displayed last year, and also denotes the company’s future design direction.”
