      Wow, Long time no see, welcome back!

  2. Absolutely agreeing with you, KS should not allow ANY porn, whether gay or lesbian. And if it were really an April fools joke, then no wonder we all are so *BLEEP* headed that we ponder on matter that are so irrelevant and funny. I have my opinion that porn of any sort should not be allowed on KS. This will attract many people and users with mal intentions and run a risk of creating chaos for the moderators. People like you who encourage the fact of porn saying it to be funny makes me believe that people have no business in the Internet and if they have 30% of their time is spent on porn sites. Having discrimination on no gay but allowing lesbian porn is a discrimination on women as a whole and must be dealt with seriously. I oppose your views on making such fun of women as you must respect the lady who gave birth to people or else you do not belong to good breed at all. Jokes apart, there are more male porn people than women but as because men rule the offices women are so wrongly portrayed. Shame on your views to demean women. And allowing porn behind login page is also irrelevant as you allow the password free in the net and the KS becomes a porn site. What a mess it can be. Not funny by my standards.
  3. Well its a fact that there are thousands of people who do nor submit their tax returns and almost half of those who do submit actually do not give details of proper earnings like those other than the salary. If you were one of them, then I do not think it to be a surprise, as the system of earning through the myCent and paying for your website for profitable gains never ever reflect in your balance sheet nor your tax filing. Its also the same for me and I call all these people thieves and cheaters, though a milder tone. But look at your case where the irs office charged and threatened you, its the same here, if you do not pay your tax properly or do not file returns on time, you will be fined on flat rates, which are much higher than the normal tax slabs. However there is a relief for salaried people like us as we will not require to file our tax returns from next year if we earn nothing other than our salary. Of-course, we are thieves and liers and will not post the earnings from here. The other day I had payments done from PayPal and in return I received some merchandise with some gift coupon for further purchase. It such happened that the use of the coupon required me to pass through the bank account which I had to decline, coz if I did that it will automatically add the gift amount into its database, a large sum of-course and I'll need to pay a good amount of tax after currency conversion. As for the original post here, I have the budgeting done on daily basis purchases and payments. I keep a diary of records of all the things that the money does and at the end of the month add up for the headings like food, transport, entertainment, bills and miscellaneous heads. The total ammount spent is tallied on monthly basis to figure out if I have exceeded on any fields and if it is found to be higher, then a scrutiny is done to find the expense raiser. It is then adjusted for in the next months budget in areas where expenses can be curtailed. Not on all cases it is possible to bring the cost and expenditure down but a check and a little control is always possible. And I never keep the payment receipts of goceries and others as the consolidated bills of credit card are always there with the daily diary list. Those products that come with warranty and service periods get a copy stored by scanning the receipts and invoices. I had the expenses of my vehicle stored in the spreadsheet in my Google account and hence never miss out on updating as it gives me results including mileage, expense over a period, expenses on petrol only and those on servicing and of-course the bribes I had to pay the traffic police department for no fault of mine. I am no good at mathematics either, but you do not need to be Einstein to be able to do daily accounts. On daily basis or even weekly basis if you can jot down your expenses of the bills you have then you get a fair idea of your bad habits of mishandling your hard earned money or your money earned by cheating, whatever be your case.
  4. I just installed Chrome 10 and found the following error message. A few similar message was also thrown with Firefox 4 when installed first. The site KS is dead slow even with Chrome and most pictures and icons are missing. Hope we get some relief from the crawling condition of KS sooner.
  5. To be precise, the Xisto was a better and fast server. Not to mention its simplicity and ease of working arround. This Xisto is the stupidest sutra of its genere. I really do not understand the fact that the KS itself does not know how to speed it up, seems like its going towards the old age syndrome and death. And I really feel sorry for the moderators who pissed me yesterday giving me warning for alleged my copy paste action. Do you think a two liner post is a copy paste act? I am ashamed that a poster like me, as per moderator, posted two liner post and that too copied from somewhere else. Crazy indeed. Are people so dumb in KS that they need to copy two lines of text from somewhere else. And since the KS last few months, not even the single icon gets loaded and the pictures are all gone. The ugly condition of KS is worth noting. I am a fan of Xisto and still continue to be , coz it has so many features of hosting that no other site can offer. Said that a million times before, the new site needs to be speeded up or in every case the old rotten data must be removed and archived. This is strictly because a old post is equivalent to a garbage, since you cannot reply not comment on those posts. If you do reply , you run the risk of being warned for posting on old threads and eventually banned. I was warned once for posting on thread that was 23 months old. Hell let loose and I was banned for posting for more than 15 days. I kept on guessing what has happened untill I figured out that the moderators are too busy or are being thrashed by broom by their wives/girlfriends. Those moderators are now not seen any more, but I never ever post on topics that are even 30 days old, you never can trust a moderator's mood. Though myCent is an automated system, the moderators are all that allow sanction on your posts or not , so eventually every thing comes down to the moderators and as I said you can never trust the mood of the moderator, so your post can be a garbage and you get warnings and not credits for your thoughts and ideas. As for now, I am pissed with the moderator that did give me a warning and so I am banging my fingers on my keyboard, since I am not able to imprint all my fingers on the face of the one who warned me. I hope KS will come out of this dirty situation and be a faster server and not continue to be so pathetic. Even my sites like evony.com which loades 2.89 MB data in the browser loads within 30 seconds, the KS fails to load even the icons and logo, let alone any features properly.
  6. As you said, we explored only 0.0...0125% of the universe, its more the reason to believe that there may be more life out there. Notice from rvalkass: Copied content removed.
  7. This is a similar situation for many people at the year end. With all the work and budgets at hand things get dirty sooner than you expect. However you need not be a maths wizard or an accouting pro to be a great problem solver, but some good planning makes all the difference. Notice from rvalkass: Copied content removed.
  8. Death is not the last thing according to the Hindu relegion, as there is afterbirth and more trials to follow in Heven or Hell. And fear for death is something which all people and living things are in trouble with. And people try their best to get the advantage by doing all they can. Coming back to fear for death, there is punishment, but no one owns the sin that one commits, even if he shared the goods from the evil. There is no help if you are penalized for the sin as your sin is yours even if that was done for the good of the other. Notice from rvalkass: Copied content removed.
  9. welcome, what's ur website address.

  10. A Bengali couple is celebrating their engagement on Feb. 14, 2011, well thats the Valentine's day, at a McDonald’s in Dhaka, where the chain is now offering wedding services and other exciting offers.By Bengali custom, the groom presents his bride’s family with a whole celebratory suckling goat. The meat, a culinary symbol of the girl’s virginity, is roasted patiently to a crackling ruddy brown. But at a recent engagement party in Dhaka, the food came quickly, turned out by restaurant workers at the pace of the city stirring outside. Guests on swivel seats raised chocolate milkshakes in a giddy toast. The couple shared a long, red-splotched French fry, meeting midway for a kiss. Before their loved ones and beneath a pair of Golden Arches, husband-to-be Rana explained earnestly, “Ajma loves ketchup.”In January, McDonald’s added wedding packages to its Dhaka menu. This is the only city in the world where the American restaurant chain offers the service, prompted by frequent inquiries about fast-food weddings from customers in recent years. Now, three McDonald’s locations are equipped to stage marital festivities in the style of any 6-year-old’s model birthday. That the corporation should move to fill - or perhaps create - this niche is not so unusual. Despite being surpassed by Subway as the world’s largest fast-food chain, McDonald’s still serves 400,000 Dhakaers every day. Countless couples will have met, or at least dated, there. Business executives take clients there for lunch; high school students gather there over homework.The Golden Arches have in this region escaped the stigma of mass production and prevalent obesity that they carry in the U.S. and elsewhere. Denouncing Big Business is hardly a pastime in a city that, in its modern incarnation, emerged from international capitalism. “In Dhaka, the transnational is the local,” says Saba Ali, a Harvard professor of Bengali society and author of Golden Bangla. When in 1975 McDonald’s first came to the former British colony, Dhaka was diligently reinventing itself from an outpost of light industry to a regional finance center. “The company and the town, they more or less grew up together,” Watson says. McDonald’s catered to, and likely prodded along, a new culture of speed, convenience and consumerism.The traditional Bengali wedding banquet is slow-cooked, not flash-fried, and is very spicy. A string of familial rituals are outdone in number by a dozen or so courses — shark-fin soup, sea cucumber, animals in their entirety meant to bring luck and completeness — and a series of costume changes. A ceremonial dinner of 20 crimson-clothed tables begins at about $28,000, and the betrothed are unlikely to know personally a majority of the invitees. In a moment of economic recovery, this kind of decadence has, for some, simply lost allure. Md. Kafiullah, Dhaka’s first wedding planner, still predominantly organizes conventional banquets. But, he says, the scale and gravity of these spreads is on the decline: “Couples are beginning to prefer smaller affairs with just the people they know, weddings that are more intimate and softer on the budget.”As Dhaka leans increasingly toward a culture of informality and affordability, the fast-food chain is there once more to meet it. “I was a bride,” says David Smith, managing director of McDonald’s Dhaka. “I didn’t enjoy my own party. I needed to dress up beautifully, that was all. For me, there was no laughing, there was no eating.” By contrast, the McWedding is casual, stress-free and inexpensive: the basic Warm and Sweet Wedding Package for 50 guests goes for under $1,000. For another $105, the bride can rent a gown of pearly white balloons.What a McDonald’s wedding event lacks in liquor, it more than makes up for in helium. For Rana and Ajma’s engagement party, in an area in one restaurant’s rear cordoned off from the public, goody bags are stuffed with plush McDonaldland characters. A McDonald’s M.C. coordinates games while waitresses deal out cheeseburgers. A cake is a pyramid of green apple-pie cartons. Dozens of heart-shaped balloons - it is Valentine’s Day, after all - hover in the corners of the room in rosy clumps. The future bride, Ajma, weeping from the excitement of it, wears a balloon ring and carries an inflated bouquet. Nothing would seem less personal than a cookie-cutter McDonald’s restaurant open to Dhaka’s every diner. But Rana speaks of the spot with a wistfulness normally reserved for neighborhood institutions. “We both used to come here all the time as children,” he said during a press conference at the engagement party. “I just wanted people to have a good time. It’s hard to find somewhere that’s fun for kids and adults, and where everyone will love the food.” Even his mother, in all her fussiness, was able to find something she likes: the fish Hilsha.For the affianced couple - a model and a nurse, both striking and healthy - this is a family place. And it is for the benefit of their families that Rana lowers himself onto a single bent knee and, before them, the media and a pale pink banner, asks Ajma a question she has already answered. They had been dating for nine years when they first decided to marry. The engagement party is over by 10 p.m., but the bride would likely tell you that not everything in this city moves so quickly.
  11. There is a game that I wish to talk about. EVONY. Its a browser based game and a strategy based. One that I have been playing since last 2 years. It started with Age I and now with the Age II in for about a year now, the game-play has changed a lot. There has been so many changes and upgrades that i now do not keep track of them now. There were server introduction every month and even 2 in some months, both in Age I and Age II and the best part is that you play this for absolutely free. However if u pay, you get some advantage as bonuses. The game goes on even if you are not playing and all you need to do is just set the best things and combination in and the game moves as set. Time is an important thing in the game and it goes on as daily 24 hour schedule. All that you do is arrange and keep rearranging all that leads you to be a better player and better equipped with to rule the world called Evony. With 800x800 grids in every server half of the numbers can be players and with about 5 thousand players active in every server you play a massive army and alliance fighting among the others. You also get the secret ways to enhance yourself with the facebook apps attached to the game and all players that are your friends in the facebook can also can help you grow even faster.I am in the top alliances in the two servers and ranking in the top 500. I play because its so addictive and so much fun, coz you still play even if you are not in the computer.
  12. Nice pictures and good quality.The nest that I love about Need for Speed is the game and the thrill that it provides, I have been a regular player of NFS since the beginning and have played all versions till 2009. In 2010 the NFS became too tough for my laptop and even my desktop was not able to handle the requirements of blurr and motion.I however think we have more than what we can handle with the way nfs is developing.
  13. The debate that whether Coke is good or bad is still on the laboratories and taking the rounds every now and then. In India the coke has taken a new name - the toilet cleaner. The fact that if you use coke as your toilet cleaner the toilet looks more refreshing than other brands. It has been found to be true to a large extent. Baba Ramdev has himself challenged the claims of the coke company of the quality control in production and the quantity of items that are added that could lead to health hazards. It was found in the national laboratory tests that there is excess amount of chemicals present that leads to serious illness specially among children. In another case the left government went on to say that the coke company is a curse on mankind. Brinda karat went against Baba Ramdev as saying that the medicines it has contain animal bone extracts. But on the matter of coke and the drinks of its kind said that they are chemically killers and economically butchers. The fact that a bottle of coke that sells of Rs 10 actually costs about Rs 1.50 only. And add transportation and cooling charges ammounts to Rs 2.65 only. Now see the profit and that is why these coke companies endorse the big guns in the fields of sports and entrtainment all with the money from the common people who are cheated to pay much more than justified.
  14. There are days (nights ) when you wake up and do not remember if you dreamt. Later on that day you recall that the same has happened to you before as well, only to find out that you dreamt it the previous night. Scary!I analysed many of them and realized a few. To dream you see a friend standing like a statue on a hill, denotes you will advance beyond present pursuits, but will retain former impressions of justice and knowledge, seeking these through every change. If the figure blew, you will ignore your friends of former days in your future advancement. If it is on a plane or level with you, you will fail in your ambition to reach other spheres. If you seem to be going from it, you will force yourself to seek a change in spite of friendly ties or self-admonition. When you dream of gas, denotes you will entertain harmful opinions of others, which will cause you to deal with them unjustly, and you will suffer consequent remorse. To think you are asphyxiated, denotes you will have trouble which you will needlessly incur through your own wastefulness and negligence. To try to blow gas out, signifies you will entertain enemies unconsciously, who will destroy you if you are not wary. When you dream that God sends his spirit upon you, great changes in your beliefs will take place. Views concerning dogmatic Christianity should broaden after this dream, or you may be severely chastised for some indiscreet action which has brought shame upon you. God speaks oftener to those who transgress than those who do not. It is the genius of spiritual law or economy to reinstate the prodigal child by signs and visions. Elijah, Jonah, David, and Paul were brought to the altar of repentence through the vigilant energy of the hidden forces within. For a man to dream that he wears a new hat, predicts change of place and business, which will be very much to his advantage. For a woman to dream that she wears a fine new hat, denotes the attainment of wealth, and she will be the object of much admiration. And when there is a dream of a holiday, foretells interesting strangers will soon partake of your hospitality. For a young woman to dream that she is displeased with a holiday, denotes she will be fearful of her own attractions in winning a friend back from a rival. These were my findings and I think many will have more to share.

  16. You may be wondering what is this topic all about? Are there such places one is so scare off? The answer to both these question is that there are many events and things that is there in our memory that if we go through them we will certainly find people and places that we would never wish to go again. And of-course there are places where we are scared to go, not because they are scary but because there are certain things that we are not happy or are scared about.Lets start with my childhood days, and I surely remember my father being in Meerut with my mother and me. I was returning home from school with my friends when a Sardar, an army fellow offered me a lift in his cycle. I was unaware of his motives and immediately took lift on his cycle even when my friends were shouting at me to get down from the cycle. I was 4 or 5 years then. I was being taken to a remote place surrounded by thick long grass, and as I was going one of my neighbours saw me and immediately charged behind the cycle. The Sardar had no choice but to rush fast and in a bid to drive fast, I slipped from the cycle and fell on the road, and badly bruised my knee and elbow. I had a broken toe as well. My mother recalls most of the story as told by my friends and the neighbour, but I vaguely still remember the deserted road covered with thick grass on either side and the scary slip from the cycle. I wish I never was and will be there again in that place, and wish no one goes through that again. I now realize that I was almost abducted.Then something happened again when I was about ten years old, my father shifted to a new place. It was a small building with a big dug out pit in the open space in front of the house, and lots of large trees around the house.. The pit was being covered with trash and rubbish and was too dirty to play around. The first night we went there, as a part of the ritual we are supposed to stay the full night awake and so we kept on sitting and talking, until I went to sleep. When I got up, I was in need to pee and so my mother asked me to go near the door outside and pee. The moment I went neat the door, something just came flying towards me from the sky behind the large trees and it was really huge. I screamed and tried to rush behind, but fainted and fell on the door. I was not able to go to toilet alone at nights for more than five years later and was becoming an embarrassment for us. Now I realize that the large thing that flew towards me from the sky above the trees was a large bat with huge wings. I just think of it and I have goosebumps all over. It was scary indeed and I still feel that it will be hard for me to go at night at places unknown to me for the fear that there are things that come straight at you in a scary way and you have nothing to do but faint.

  19. Adidas shoes are very comfortable, light weight, stylish and great value for money. The soles are designed really well and give you great grip across all terrains. The shoes are very easy on the legs and they protect you from any kind of twists or sprains. The bad thing about adidas is that the design have tended to get repetitive over time. And when compared to nike the design frequency has to be speeded up. But when it comes to value for money it is way ahead.The very first time I bought adidas a few years back I never stopped wearing them since then. You can't go wrong with Adidas shoes. Their product is wonderful. I have always got adidas shoes and never had problems with them. I would recommend adidas shoes to anyone who is took for a comfortable pair of shoe to work out in or just wear around.You?ll feel in control with these energy managers. Superior a3 technology uses polyurethane components and cushioning guidance to let your every move be communicated to your shoe, maximizing energy flow and return. The a3's engineering manages energy through the entire footstrike, providing protection against over-pronation, strategic cushioning to absorb impact forces and a midfoot transition plate that transfers energy from the rearfoot to the forefoot.Price of the product is also in the range of any person. Durabilty of the product is perfect and it also not so heavy, so go and try the shoes atleast once. These shoes are more comfortable than any other pair I have wore in my life till now and I believe that these are the best shoes. Aabout comfort of the shoes, these shoes can not be compared as per me, these are the best in all respect. I am brand loyal of Adidas and using continue from last ten years. It is very good shoes and range of this shoes is very good for everyone. All big personalities wear this shoes due to quality. After wearing it everyone feel like hero. It gives shining to everyone. This company is market hero.In last I would like to say that, according to my experience adidas is market hero not for only product quality but for all thing like durability, price range, comfrability, and brand. Being a international brand it has vaious feature, here to the company I would like to suggest that they should maintain this shoes quality forever.
  20. I do not have any problem about paying through Paypal etc, but the very fact that myCent is used to avoid paying in hard cash in from your credit card etc, is being withdrawn if you end up in a position where you expect to earn at-least a couple of myCent Dollars and are not being processed and to avoid being suspended you need to fish out from your Paypal account is a sad story. Exactly when you know there should have been enough from your myCent feature. But that is something that we a t Xisto or for that matter at the Xisto get as a bonus, there should not be any wining and heartburn. After-all there is the upgrade going for the better and we just need to wait and thank the admin for their great support and help. And I think we will have the myCent system rolling soon.
  21. Here are some of my findings on chevorlet beat based on the test drive I have taken few days ago. When it comes to cars, for my latest car purchase i started my option by latest launch of GM ie. chevorlet beat ,which is meant to be a game changer for the GM india. Chevorlet india which is at the verge of loosing grounds compared to biggies such as maruti, hyundai, tata find an freash breath of life.On the first look of the car the thing come to mind is wow, no wonder the best car available in terms of looks, but what matter the most is the performance. Step into the car the first thing noticeable is unique dashboard ,bike shaped instrument console along with spacious front seats. Turn on keys the car starts with no noise, but after that nothing good to write about. The impresive 1.2 lt engine which boast to deliver 80.5ps of power is feeling like driving maruti 800 to me. The car lacks the initial pick up, and even after my major effort the car dies to achieve the speed of 80kmph, I can remember how I put my all body weight to the accelarator. The high torque factor nowhere to be seen. Even after driving more than 3km the AC feels just as air fan, simply it canot give respite to passengers in hot indian summers.I took the test drive and the sales person has no clue about the car, the hospitality is worst to the limits, and after the poor performance of the car the salesperson is quick to say that the car needs service.Although the car is been aggresively priced, the poor reputation of GM will resist the buyers, not to mention the waitings on the car. The build quality is good, rear of car can be done more better, low on boot space, front honey comb grill is good addition. The major consideration for buyers is lack of service centers and high spares cost.To conclude, I feel the beat scores high on looks but gradually falls in performance department. So i must advice all who are looking for beat must do extensive research along with a test drive and rate your self. There is no harm in taking a test drive yourself and feeling the car for yourself.
  22. Really hilarious and that too a story from India is worth my attention and I think great of this episode.
  23. My father got me this laptop Hp Compaq nx 7400 in mid 2008. Costed around 52K at that time. 512 MB RAM, 60 Gb hard disk, inbuilt bluetooth, Intel centrino processor with genuine Window XP SP2 and 1 year licensed Norton Antivirus.I am in love with this lappy. Its so easy to use. so simple design. Great keyboard and touch-pad. I used to play NFS, AOE, counter-strike, call of duty like games on this lappy using touch-pad only. no extra keyboard. touch-pad is such a beauty to use unlike those poor and very stiff right left clicks of HCL lappy and they will cover everything with cheap plastic. No heating problem like those of home edition of HCL and many other lappys. No sound problem if u do the dusting properly. no screen problem i ever had.Many a times i by mistake slept on my lappy or stepped on it as it was under some blanket and i use to sleep on ground only.. but no problem , wear and tear it ever showed.About battery, in starting it gave 2 to 2 hr 15min backup (depends on settings). This year april 2010 it was giving 40 min backup... yes 2 years my battery worked. now i am running it without battery on direct AC.no problem ever faced .. today on may 10th ... i plan to have a new battery and may be some enhanced RAM.The only thing i wished i could have was a DVD writer. Coz i got Cd writer+ DVD reader at that time... don't know what the reasons were for that ... i mean only reader available that time or my father thought that reader will be sufficient. whatever i am a proud owner of HP Compaq NX 7400 after using it for 2 years.Planning to go for a new HP or Dell lappy only. They are true value for money... no excessive show off like Sony waio series or stupid lappy like those of HCL.About config.. that much was available at that budget.. Now checkout for new HP series. And this being a old model is nor recommended any more but is worth the money.
  24. The mycent is ofcourse having slow response as of now. I have gone through the post related to mycent concept and working but am still not satisfied with the result and performance so far, but things will be better soon as I know the scripts are being modified and features added and or removed to optimize the performance. Not withstanding with the testing phase will be a harsh statement and so I wait patiently for my mycents to update soon.
