Pics of new TVS Taurus FX. coming soon...


This is a 250 cc monster launced by TVS, but with only one cylinder. Pretty costly stuff, at around 1.3 L. But the bike deserves huge bucks as the looks are stunning and a 250 cc engine which will act like a monster on Indian roads. The design seems sleek and has disk-brakes for both wheels.

This is my next bike...

Detect a two way mirror. How?

Here something cool that I found on net. There are many places you vist, where you are being watched. Many places like hotels and restaurants do spy on private activities of people.
So how do you detect that you are being spied or not. The most common trick to spy on someone is to place a 2-way mirror in the room. A 2-way mirror looks like a simple genuine mirror, but its a plain glass from other side.
Heres a trick to identify a 2-way mirror. Place the tip of your fingernail against the reflective surface and if there is a GAP between your fingernail and the image of the nail, then it is a genuine mirror. However, if your fingernail directly touches the image of your nail, then BEWARE, IT IS A 2-WAY MIRROR! (There is someone seeing you from the other side). So remember, every time you see a mirror, do the "fingernail test."

Times are changing, but why not ME?

Form the time I started to understand the world, I believed in LOVE. I believed that this power was the source to eternal happiness. This is the bond which could last more then any of the relationships. Felt this was the antidode to all the evils going around, and the solvent for all the hatred in this world.
I don't know for what reason I never believed in god. I never believed in destiny. I never believed in relations. I never felt close to people only because they are related to me in some way. I never differentiate people on any grounds.
But, this world has been a great teacher to me all these years, making clear the values of life. People around me have shown me things which I never thought of. Now I could see the power of MONEY. This thing can change your life within a fraction of time. It brings you power; the power to change your life and possibly others too. I recall some famous words, "Everything comes at a price, its either you havn't seen the price tag or you can't afford it".
Money can get you everything, you just have to search for the shop properly. This is a material world, where feelings don't count much. I was surprised that, I spent these many years of my life without realising the power of MONEY.
I guess times are changing, but why not ME?

Government wants to screw you..

Hi All,
It is heard that Congress government is planning to scrap tax exemptionsonvarious policies like LIC, NSC, HRA, Mutual Funds & Other section 80-C benefits (Exemptions Upto 1 lakh).

What does that mean:
You cannot get tax exemtions on your HRA, i.e. no business of showing house rent agreement & receipts. You will be taxed on the whole HRA, you cannot claim tax exemptions by showing LIC policies or by having NSCBonds, you wouldn't be able to get tax exemtions on Housing loans, no tax benefits on Mutual/Infrastructure bonds.

What does government wants:
Government is targeting the salaried people and is making sure that not any exemptions can be availed and thereby collecting as much tax as possible from our salaries.

What does government wants us to do:
This is in discussion and government wants people to provide their feedback on these future decisions and will thereby decide by the number of feedbacks received.

** Your feedback is important and will decide how much of our hard earned money is going to government.
**Please write a short email any one of these guys stating whether you want goverment to continue or discard these exsisting policies by 5th July2006.
