Taking a Short Break from Blogging!

2010-01-11T03:08:00.000-08:00

Hi Everyone!
I am getting a bit busier these days and cannot afford time to blog for you. I am not sure when I will be relieved from my hefty schedule. Thus, I thought of taking a break from blogging and have migrated all my posts to my friend Richard's blog - Ray Richardson's Reviews and Experiences.

To all who have been visiting this blog, I wish to take a chance to thank you for your all your support.

Bye!

2009-04-08T04:28:00.000-07:00

The terrible earthquake which hit Italy in the morning of April 6^th left many people in distress. The death toll according to sources was 27 and it is likely to increase later.

The earthquake, with a potential of 6.3 in magnitude, hit the central Italy at around 3.30 a.m. (8:30 p.m. ET). The US geological survey had found the epicenter to be at 60 miles away from Rome in the mountainous Abruzzo region - 6.2 miles beneath the ground.

Since, there are many buildings in Italy, which are very old – some even of centuries age – the damage is likely to be big. Some say that...

Joy of Giving Others

2008-11-18T01:05:00.000-08:00

It is not just money that you donate to feel joy. It can be a piece of advice, a good suggestion, a word of solace, a fill of motivation, an encouragement, a guide to some part of someone’s destination. Even a smile can do a great favor to someone in depression or irritation.

Though I cannot prove scientifically, that anything good you give to somebody comes back to you hundreds of times. All you have to do is help your fellow beings as much as you can. It must be timely and...

BTM Alignment, Synchronization And Convergence

2008-01-08T04:23:00.000-08:00

Many enterprises perceive the alignment of business technology with the business to be a sort of management “Holy Grail”. From a BTM (Business Technology Management) perspective, alignment can be defined as a state where technology supports, enables, and does not constrain the company’s current and evolving business strategies.

Checklist of New Apartment

2007-12-19T22:38:00.000-08:00

Check every ceiling for water spots, particularly in bathrooms. Water spots mean that something is leaking, and anything leaking is a bad thing.
Closet door and patio door sliders need to work smoothly and glide easily. Make sure to check the patio door locking mechanism.
All windows and screens should...
