Now i have seen, Friends collecting coins, stamps, bottle caps, pepsi caps, Kinder egg toys and even computer memory chips. But i have never seen or imagined , this a one of a kind creative talent. Tshirts made from design and artistic imagery from Currency notes.
I have been working on a project of mine in Goa, for almost 3 years now. Planning, conceptualization , funding etc. im not going to disclose anything of it right now. But just am glad that its doing well. I will be mentioning it out later in the next few months. Only a few Family members, and friends know about this. and i hope you’ll dont mention it out at this stage. The Above is an Abbreviated version of the logo, like Coca Cola having Coke and so on. Orange has never been my color, but it brings a new dimension to the surroundings.
I just realised , that i havent got any postal mail for a very very long time. No greeting cards, no letters from families, or Friends from basically anywhere in the world. Initially i could blame it on EMAIL technology and say everyone is joining the “Age of Email”. But when i ran a search on my email client, i realised i dont get emails from anyone too ? 
If i look at my daily Inbox , i get like 45 geninue emails from work and things to do. 1 email from my wife. and rest 50 to 100 all spam. i dont get any more emails from friends or even families all over the world that say ” Hey Ray, how are you doing ? how is this or that”.
All i get is shorten lines,,, which say ” Hey Man, we got to get this up and running, there is this to buy, this to do. Hmmmmph .. maybe its just me ! sigh!
For a long time , i use this simple website, to find out the external IP address of my network or my pc (standalone to the net). it helps in various ways to see how to communicate with the world. For those who understand what external static Ips are used. you can check it out
I was checking out Mark’s Post about the new CNN website design. The change is welcoming than what CNN used to have. There is something what caught my eye. There is a section on top , which provided dedicated links on top for Hot Topics. Well Terrorism, Iraq War are very happening today. The Iphone ? well ok i can live with that … BUT PARIS HILTON? …. wow she gets a dedicated link on CNN as a HOT TOPIC?. what about oil prices rising, uprisings in Sudan, Global Warming …. what about Transformers ? …
I have been struggling for the last 12 months to get internet for a small office in Goa, India. I have tired BSNL prepaid, BSNl Dialup, Airtel GPRS, Airtel EDGE , tata indicom internet. all have been a major cost to setup and a major monthly subscription fees. But none have provided a great service nor provided me with support.
Unfortunately i cannot get any dsl or broadband(as they call it in India) as there is no cables laid out(even though this office is in the main road connecting 2 major cities in Goa). All of them have silly excuses, or silly unwanted problems. It really sad to see a growing country have major communication problems. Im not sure if this problem is due to a major country , or corrupt politicians.
I have 2 last resorts, i hope one works out . im building 2 major wireless towers that would transmit internet from a cybercafe to the office , a point to point distance of 5 miles. Or i have to apply for Sify Broadband(Cable TV), which has some bad reviews everywhere on the net.
We watched Shooter , this Thursday Night, It was a great movie. Kept us on our toes a bit. The Storyline, was ”OK”. But the action, was quite immense and thrilling. I cant get details of the movie, here as i would advise people to watch it. Shooter brings out , professionalism of a SNIPER . It shows the calculations involved in being a pro sniper. Somehow i felt, if i placed this under the sniper movies category, “Enemy at the Gates“. would be more pratical and  more understanding as the life of a sniper.
I consider the storyline as “OK”, because, it seems to be picked up from many movies and joined together … like Rambo, Art of War and few others. Mark Wahlberg has acted quite well, i was expecting some more acting efforts from the supporting actors.
Its a good movie to watch for the action and excitement. I would give it 3 out of 5.
A new trend in India has started, that has created a major shortage within the coin distribution in the country. People are basically selling 1 Rupee coins to factories , which melt them to create razors. Wow!!!! What a strange Crime. Read on to find out (Courtesy Arabtimes Kuwait)
