Socialism : A simple test to understand it

An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had recently failed an entire class. That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer. The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's plan". All grades will be averaged and everyone will receive the same grade so no one will fail and no one will receive an A.... (substituting grades for dollars - something closer to home and more readily understood by all). After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.. The second test average was a D! No one was happy.

Harmful Girls : Way of looking

How it is harmful : Girls are beautiful, intelligent, and altogether wonderful creatures... at least for the most part. There are several harmful types of girls you should avoid dating to help save your emotional, physical, and even financial well being. These types of girls are usually selfish and/or have bad habits that make them harmful to date. To get the scoop on these types of girls and how to identify them. 1. Spoiled Brats : Spoiled brats make bad dating options because of their unrealistic expectations and unwillingness to acknowledge their flaws. If you decide to date a spoiled brat, you should expect to do a lot of work without getting any credit for it. 2. Players : Players will charm, seduce, and even date you, but they'll never start a real relationship with you. They're bad to date because they jump from guy to guy and don't offer any real long term potential. 3. Party Girls : Party girls aren't any good to date because they just love partying too

Feeling before of a your project to go live

If you are on an Implementation support, the only thing which you want is code freeze, so that you can relax a bit. Thanks to all us for the hard work we had done in last 6 months, we are close to code freeze. We are congratulated by our peers for the effort before Christmas. Although we are also delighted for making such a huge effort, and planned holidays, much deserved holidays after tiring 6 months. Thank God India Australia series is starting after this, else we would have just read the news, now we can be spectators. Firstly, I like to congrats ourselves for our terrific effort to bring the software on correct path. Hats off to our dedication, peer support and never say die attitude to make this happened. Its not easy without such an effort from the team that bank (NGP) is ready to GO LIVE on the said date. It proves if we work hard then even “Impossible” will say I’M’POSSIBLE. Three cheers to the team. This can only happen due to dedicated effort of team which is

India vs Australia : Most Awaited sporting event of the year

So, here comes the time for the most awaited Sports event of the year. Most of us will be in MCG for series opener to support our teams. I guess the series will be battle between Indian Senior Batters Vs Aussie young bowlers. Both teams are having injury problems. Some key players are out due to injuries but still series will have its own charm and will be full of excitement.  By looking at practice match stats, I am sure Sachin -- the master -- the best cricket player ever, will get his much awaited 100 th 100 in this series may be even in series opener. Boy believe me, he will have terrific series with the bat. I will be not surprise if he gets MOS (man of the series) award and if it happen really then India will have great chance to win the series.   May be this will be last series (Between Aus and India in Aus) for some of the great players of the decade like Dravid, Laxman, Ponting and Hussey. These guys will be ready to show their characters, mettle and prov

Banking Industry : Too much complicated

I decided to write on this topic, as I work in one of the largest Bank in Australia and I realized that providing a banking solution is very complex. As the technology is growing so rapidly, that one can't afford to provide a complete solution using a finite set of technologies.  And these days, its a habit of Big software companies that they sell all their available products to their clients. They try to integrate all available tools to make a product. In Banking Software Bank also thinks that if many systems are communicating to each other in live environment, chances of fraud are minimized. National Australia Bank is My Company's client. I personally feel that for a product like Next generation which is called as NGP in our terminology, still in developing state, is going to be a very great. As to provide such a testing environment to the product like NGP in its childhood days is not possible for small sector banks. But thanks to the testing team to test such a huge set o
