Well, most awaited product 'iPhone 4$' has launched in India with big big price tag....
If we compare the price of iPhone in India then its higher than US with factor of 4. (4X) !!!
I want to give one suggestion to apple, they should relaunch
iPhone in India as 'iPhone 4X'.
I got one logical equation for this. Price(1 Branded Laptop + Blackberry + 10 MP Digital camera) < Price( iPhone 4$) Its worth? (Hope SIRI can understand Indian accent.... )
Google Earth's "3D Buildings" layer is entirely comprised of models made from Google SketchUp or Google Building Maker. It is simple and easy to make a model for Google Earth.
Steps
The default model setup.
Open SketchUp. It is the most commonly used tool for Google Earth Modeling.
The window with satellite imagery.
Go to "File", then click "Geo-location". A window will appear with satellite imagery.
Click "Select Region", resize the box that appears to fit around your building, then click, "Grab". This will take a "screenshot" of the imagery.
Outline your building.
The imagery should appear in your model. To make it easier to model, outline your building with the "Line" tool. If any, move the preloaded person out of your way.
Make the exterior; no textures yet.
Create the shell of your model. Google Earth does not view the inside of buildings, making it easier on your part. You won't be adding textures yet.
The roof texture applied. Note the dropper in the "Materials" window.
Add the roof image. Click on the "Materials" tool (signified by a paint bucket), then click on the "Dropper" tool on the right of the new window that appeared. With that tool selected, click on the satellite imagery. Finally, click on the roof of your model. The roof will look like the top of the real building.
Photo texture your model.
Add "Photo Textures". Go to "Window", then select Photo Textures. Click a face on your building, then click, "Select Region". When you match the photo with the face, click "Grab"; that side will be photo textured. Do the same to the rest of your model.
Make sure the model is entirely textured.
Your building should look like the photo on the right. Make sure it is accurately and entirely photo textured.
Make sure "Google Earth Ready" is checked.
Upload to the 3D Warehouse. While entering in your model information, make sure "Google Earth Ready" is checked.
Wait. Reviewers will look at your model and see if it meets the criteria for entering the Google Earth 3D Buildings layer.
A ribbon should appear next to the name.
Check your model status after a while. If it was accepted, you should see a ribbon next to its name, signifying it was added. If not, you should see a ribbon with a red symbol across it.
You may see it in Google Earth.
You may also view it in Google Earth to make sure it was accepted.
Facebook privacy settings have undergone several incarnations since December 2009, the latest one being in August 2011. Since your Facebook profile is associated with your real name (which anyone, including job interviewers, can search for) you may want to keep more information private. And while you can always make parts or all of your profile private again, once information has been released to the Internet (e.g. search engines), there's not much you can do to take it back.[1] This article addresses how you can control your privacy settings as of the August 2011 update, which was designed to be more user-friendly.[2]
Change the privacy settings for any old posts. Before August 2011, you could not change the visibility of any posts that had already been published. If you accidentally made it too public, all you could do was delete it. Now there are two ways to adjust the visibility of old posts.
To change the settings for an individual old post, find it on your wall, and hover the cursor on the upper right hand corner until a menu icon pops up. Click on that and change the visibility the same way as you would for a new post.
To change the settings for all of your old posts, click on "Account" from the upper right hand corner and choose "Privacy Settings". Look for "Limit the audience for past posts" and click on the "Manage Past Post Visibility" link next to it. A dialog will pop up reminding you that this will set the visibility of all of your old posts to friends only. A few things to keep in mind: This is good if all of your old posts are more public than "friends only", such as if they were shared with everyone or with friends of friends, but it may also make private old posts (such as those which you shared with only certain friends) visible to all of your Facebook friends. Also, if you change your mind later, you'll have to individually go back and change each post's privacy settings, which can be unrealistically time-consuming.
Check the visibility of any post that you comment on. If you comment on someone's post and they have set it to be visible to friends of friends or public, that means your comment might show up in all your friends' feeds. This can be disastrous if, for example, your friend posts a public update like "Wow last night was CRAZY" and you make a comment like "Yeah, it was - I can't believe I puked on the dinner table" and then your grandma sees your reply to that comment in her feed. Before August 2011, you had no idea how public a person's update was, but now you can check by hovering the cursor over a little symbol at the end of the date details for an update:
If it says "Shared with: (Name)'s friends of friends" or if the symbol looks like the Earth, that means all of your friends will be able to see your reply to that post.
Note that this is not privacyproof. Since people can now change the visibility of a post after they have published it, it's possible (though usually unlikely) that the person whose post you commented on may change its visibility to something more public, making it so that (if they wanted to) any of your friends could look at that post and see your comment therein.
Take control of your tags. The August 2011 update gives you more options to decide who sees posts, photos and videos you've been tagged in. Click on "Account" from the upper right hand corner and choose "Privacy Settings". Look for "How Tags Work" and click on "Edit Settings" next to it.
Consider turning on profile review. If profile review is on, you must approve tags before they will appear on your profile. Until you do so, the tag will appear as "pending." Remember that not approving the post doesn't mean that you're not tagged—it simply means that the tag will not appear in your profile. (To remove the tag, you must go to the post, picture, or video you've been tagged in and click on "remove tag" next to your name.)
Profile visibility. This lets you choose who can see posts that you're tagged in. Select an option in the drop down menu, or create your own option by clicking "Custom." If you have friends who tag you in potentially incriminating circumstances, you may wish to restrict this to people on your friends list who you trust not to hold any of the pictures against you.
Tag suggestions. When your friend uploads a photo that looks like you and this feature is enabled, Facebook will suggest that they tag you. The tag will only appear if your friend approves it. This facial recognition feature has been controversial and was declared illegal to be turned on by default in Germany.[3]
Friends can check you into places. Leaving this option enabled will allow your friends to tag you with them when they check in to places. You will always be notified when friends check you in with them, and you have the ability to remove the checkin from your profile. If you disable this feature, they will not be able to check you in to begin with.
Tag Review. Turning on tag review will allow you to review any tags your friends add to your profile before the tags appear. This is for when people look at your photos and videos and want to tag themselves, or other people, in them.
Check who can see what on your info page. Click the "Info" tab of your profile, and then hit edit in the right corner. Alternatively, click "Edit My Profile" under your name on the home page.
Beside each piece of information you will see a drop down menu. You can decide which groups of people will see which information by clicking the menu and selecting the desired option. For example, you can set your work place visible to the public, but only allow your friends to see where you went to college.
Toggle between different sections of your profile by clicking the options on the left hand side of the page.
Preview your profile as someone else. Want to check that your privacy settings are keeping Grandma or your boss from seeing stuff you don't want them to see? You can now see your profile through their eyes. Actually, you have been able to do this for a long time, but it was tucked away deep in the privacy settings. As of August 2011, you can view your profile by clicking "View As..." on the upper right hand side of your profile.
Preview your profile as someone else.
Type the name of the person you want to view your profile as. Hit enter. You will then be able to view your profile exactly as that person views it. Make notes of things you want to change. Check your photo albums, old posts, etc. Click "Back to Profile" when you're done.
When posting anything, you can still decide who will be able to see it by clicking the drop down box in the lower right. You have always been able to do this, but as of August 2011 the layout has changed. Before, the options (signified by a lock symbol) were everyone, friends of friends, only friends, and customize. Now you can choose to set the status visible to the public (which means the same as "everyone" in the old layout), only your friends, or a custom set of people.
To set your status so it's viewable by only a certain set of people, or to friends of friends, click "Custom." Then, choose an option from the drop down menu. To set it visible to one or two people, choose "specific people" and then type the name of the people you would like to grant permission to. To hide the update from one or two people, type their names in the "hide this from" section of the custom settings. You can also type in the name of list in either box; for example, you might make a Facebook friends list called "family" and type it into the "hide this from" box so that all of the family members on your friends list won't see that update.
Remember, even though you can control what people see on your profile, you can't always control what people see on others' profiles. In other words, whatever you post on someone else's page is viewable based on their privacy settings, not yours. In other words, don't leave dirty comments on other people's walls or pictures unless you're 100% sure they're on top of their privacy settings, or else those comments might come back to haunt you on search engines.
Well, Again the best movie from Christopher Nolan. I have watched Batman begins it was fantastic, but Dark Knight is best of all.
I already watched the Dark knight couple years back but, I saw it on CD and it was theater print so image quality was poor, I don’t understand the
dialogs either. I just saw for satisfaction of watching Nolan’s movie,
But this time , I again bought a new DVD with HD print and again saw it, and I stunned by watching Jokers acting and the way he presented in the movie.
He totally dominate the batman and all other characters in entire movie, I just became a big fan of joker after this film. Heath Ledger have done
Fantastic job, Unfortunately he was not at the premier of the movie as well not in ceremony of OSCAR Awards to receive his award for best supporting
actor for this film, as he die in sad surprise accident (same as he give surprises in movie!!!)
I really want to appreciate that acting, I never expect acting stuff from Hollywood movies , as I watch movies which are either Action or Science fiction,
so their main focus are on the special effects and the script, I believe the successes of these movies are depends on the technology used and efforts taken to make story/script.
Acting/Actors doesn’t matters (Ex. Avatar would be hit , although Will Smith taken for lead role.. J ).
But this film is exception for my thinking, Christopher is very choosy about the characters. I really wondering how he make mind of Heath Ledger to act in role of Joker.
We realize the psycho person in every moment when the camera on the joker, the way he see , the way he talk , he walks,his expression everything is mind-blowing.
I know what is called Dark Humor now.
I can say ‘The Joker is the most flamboyant, insane, eerie and wild villain ever-created in comics or maybe fiction so far’.
I really want recommend this character to study by the people who want make career in acting.
Hats Off to Joker ( Heath Ledger) !!!
(Well I already watched this movie 6 times and keep watching again and again !!! )
“I think its limit…” as I always think when blast occurs every time in Mumbai !!!
I really surprised abt Mumbai spirit, its really spirit or we don’t have any option to face the next day after blast…. This Spirit going to KILL Mumbai I belive,
Cant we stop the Mumbai for One Day ? To get seriousness of the blast ?
Its WAR …. Sounds funny ?
Difference is that in common WAR, People/soldiers fights from both sides but in this WAR only one side making attacks and other side has to take their attacks.
I really want to know as we really I have guts to fight the terrorism ?
Well this sounds bold and weird …
Do we have a guts to kill Kasab ? (By going into Cell and Kill him)
No ?
So Why do you expect form government to go and destroy the terrorism by going across the country ?
They don’t have Guts…
I am surprised that there is no one psycho in India to go and Kill Kasab.
Well, there will not be a 1% possibility of decreasing terrorism By Killing Kasab but somehow anybody successful to kill him then, their will be message to all terrorism groups that we are involved in this WAR…
I don’t know when we wake Up…Its not the responsibility of Police to check every inch of the city, we have to be involve in this WAR….after all they are attacking on us not on police nor politicians isn’t it ?
We have millions of Software engineers or Programmers in this country I don’t remember that any of them hacked or destroyed their network or website ?
are we ?
This is a one way I am telling the strategy to fight with terrorism, there are lots of ways to do other stuffs to against them …
I believe this is WAR, Either you fight or be ready to get KILL…
The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is known to be an “island” of trash, mainly plastic, floating in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It is well known that it has vastly negative effects for marine life, and these shocking pictures from photographer Chris Jordan drive the point home.
During his visit to Midway Atoll in the Pacific Ocean, the photographer had the chance to see and photograph the havoc plastic waste is wreaking with the lives of albatross chicks. Parents mistake the waste as food, and feed it to their chicks, hundreds of which then die due to poisoning, choking or deadly blockages.
His photographs show the remains of such albatross chicks, with nearly decayed bodies but with the plastic waste clearly visible in their bodies. The photographer has said that the images show the actual contents in the birds’ stomach, and has not been “moved, placed, manipulated, arranged, or altered in any way.” It really is a stunning, shocking sight.
Tiger Text is an iPhone app that advertises itself as a tool to help people “cover their tracks” that are left when sending traditional text messages. What Tiger Text does is enable a cheating spouse to send text messages between the “other person” (who is also using Tiger Text) and not worry about the text message being found by someone else — because messages sent via Tiger Text will essentially self destruct within a specified timeframe.
When you send a text message using Tiger Text, the content of your message is never sent to the recipient’s phone as it does when you send a standard text message. Since the message doesn’t reside on the recipient’s phone, but rather stored on Tiger Text’s servers, you are given full control when the messages are deleted from Tiger Text’s servers.
Check out the screen shots below for a sample.
As you can see from the screen shots above, once the messages are gone, they are gone. You can set messages to ‘Delete On Read’ or set your own time limit such as 2 hours, 4 hours, etc. A few other tidbits of information are that both users must have Tiger Text installed (there is a free reader if the other person doesn’t want to buy Tiger Text), and if a message is set to expire at a specified time period and it’s not read, then its gone forever. Check out the screen shot below for an overview of Tiger Text’s settings.
Pricing for Tiger Text is FREE for the first 100 messages or 15 days (whichever comes first), and then its $1.49 per 250 messages sent per month or $2.49 per month for unlimited messages. Currently the iPhone is the only supported device, but there are now plans for BlackBerry and Android versions later this year.
The developer of the app says that using Tiger Text will help you cover your tracks, and I agree 100%. It will help someone cover their tracks who is using Tiger Text to send text messages. However, if a suspicious spouse has secretly installed an iPhone spy app on their spouse’s iPhone, then its game over. The cheating spouse will get caught. I’m 100% sure of it, for the reasons below.
With Tiger Text, you don’t have to worry about someone going through your iPhone and reading your text messages. Tiger Text will enable you to set your text messages to either delete when read, or self destruct within a specified time frame. However, it wont protect you from an iPhone spy app as described above.
Features: Automatically delete messages or specify when messages are to self destruct.
Price: FREE for the first 100 messages or 15 days (whichever comes first), and then its $1.49 per 250 messages sent per month or $2.49 per month for unlimited messages.
