To
Juliet
Grade 7.0 S.M
Sub: Offer of love!
Dearest Ms Juliet,
I am very happy to inform you that I have fallen in Love with you since the 14th of October (Saturday).
With reference to the meeting held between us on the 13th of Oct. at 1500 hrs, I would like to present myself as a prospective Lover.
Our love affair would be on probation for a period of three months and depending on compatibility, would be made permanent.
Of course, upon completion of probation, there will be continuous on the job training and performance appraisal schemes leading up to promotion from lover to spouse.
The expenses incurred for coffee and entertainment would initially be shared equally between us. Later, based on your performance, I might take up a larger share of the expenses.
However I am broadminded enough to be taken care of, on your expense account.
I request you to kindly respond within 30 days of receiving this letter, failing which, this offer would be cancelled without further notice and I shall be considering someone else.
I would be happy, if you could forward this letter to your sister, if you do not wish to take up this offer.

US debt clock runs out of digits
The US government's debts have ballooned so badly the National Debt Clock in New York has run out of digits to record the spiralling figure.
The digital counter marks the national debt level, but when that passed the $10 trillion point last month, the sign could not display the full amount.
The board was erected to highlight the $2.7 trillion level of debt in 1989.
The clock's owners say two more zeros will be added, allowing the clock to record a quadrillion dollars of debt.
Douglas Durst, son of the late Seymour Durst - the clock's inventor - hopes to replace the Manhattan clock with its lengthier replacement early next year.
For the time being, the Times Square counter's electronic dollar sign has been replaced with the extra digit required.
For its part, the digital dollar symbol has been supplanted by a cheaper version - perhaps a sign of the times for the American economy.
Some economists believe the $700bn bail-out plan for ailing US financial institutions could send the national debt level to $11 trillion.

Clipboard Data Theft through internet
1. A little known secret about Microsoft's Internet Explorer Web browser is the long-standing feature that lets Web sites silently read data stored in the Windows "clipboard" -- the storage space that serves as a semi-temporary repository for any text the user has recently cut-and-pasted or copied in virtually any Windows program. Are you still using IE 6 and want to see how the clipboard feature works?
2. Visit this harmless proof-of-concept site => www.scriptingmagic.com/Topics/IE%20Specific/Clipboard%20Plunder .with IE 6 after you use a Windows program to copy and paste some text or numbers (even though it's a harmless example page, maybe it's best not to copy that Quicken data you were just entering).
3. As the site explains, data copied to the Windows clipboard stays there until it is replaced by more cut-and-pasted data, and/or when you log out of your machine or turn it off. It's probably worth mentioning that alternative Web browsers such as Firefox and Opera do not allow Windows clipboard data-stealing
Just try this also:
1. Copy any text by ctrl+c
2. Copy the Link: into address bar
3. http://www.friendlycanadian.com/applications/clipboard.htm

Angelina's Doll Worth $3000
London (ANI): American actress Angelina Jolie's look-alike doll was snapped up by an anonymous bidder for 2,000 pounds during an eBay auction. The doll with the same bee-stung lips, perfectly arched eyebrows, and tiny mole on the forehead had been hand painted by artist Noel Cruz.
Jolie's figurine had just been an ordinary doll before Cruz removed the factory paint, and then re-touched the face with acrylics, forming the actress' features. To make the doll look more like the Tomb Raider star, he even fitted it with a long brown wig and added a glamorous dress. After the transformation was complete, the doll was put up on Internet auction site eBay, where the anonymous bidder bought it.
For Cruz, who specialises in painting dolls to look like celebrities, there was only one thing that was missing from the doll - Jolie's tattoos. Despite the doll having been made in an almost exact replica of the real deal, it still came under the criticism of an online forum.

WorldWide Telescope
WorldWide Telescope Brings Space Exploration to Earth.
A service free of charge from Microsoft lets students and lifelong learners tour the night sky using high-resolution images from the world’s best land- and space-based telescopes.
Want to see the same images that scientists at NASA use for their research or perform your own research with those images? Or do you want to see the Earth from the same perspective that astronauts see as they descend to Earth? How about taking a 5 minute break and viewing a panorama of a different city? Install WWT and start your explorations.

Intel SSD Drives
Intel's new line of 80GB and 160GB flash drives provide massive performance boosts in transfer rates, the chip giant says.
Things are set to heat up in the solid state drive market, with Intel adding SSDs to its menu of products. Unlike its previous flash memory solutions which have been based on mini-card modules, the new drives are built around the standard 1.8 inch and 2.5 inch form factors found in netbooks, notebooks and compact desktops. 80GB drives will roll off the production line at the end of next month, with 160GB versions hitting in first quarter of 2009.
“CPU performance has scaled tremendously over the years, but while hard drives have done a great job in capacity they haven’t done much in performance” said Kishore Rao, Product Manager for Intel’s new line of High Performance SATA Solid State Drives. “Performance has grown by only a factor of 1.3 since January 2006, which leads to a tremendous IO bottleneck.”
Intel claims the X18-M (1.8 inch) and X25-M (2.5 inch) drives have read speeds up to 250MB/s, write speeds to 70MB/s and a read latency of 85 microseconds. More of a concern for many would-be users is the life of the drive, however Rao says that based on 100GB of transfers per day the drives would deliver “five years useful life in a PC, and a high-end user would use maybe only 20GB per day”.
The drives themselves use a proprietary controller and firmware but are designed around the standard ONFI 1.0 (Open NAND Flash Interface) flash interface developed by a consortium led by the likes of Intel, Sony and Micron Technology. Samsung, which is the world's largest manufacturer of NAND flash, is notably absent from the ONFI consortium.
Intel’s move into the SSD space move puts the chipmaker in the box seat for supplying PC manufacturers vendors with solid state drives. While pricing won’t be revealed until the launch of the 80GB unit, Rao predicted that “you’ll see very competitive pricing on these drives”.

Multiple Desktop in XP
Microsoft has quietly released a utility that allows you to create multiple desktops on Vista or XP.
Introduction
Desktops allows you to organize your applications on up to four virtual desktops. Read email on one, browse the web on the second, and do work in your productivity software on the third, without the clutter of the windows you’re not using. After you configure hotkeys for switching desktops, you can create and switch desktops either by clicking on the tray icon to open a desktop preview and switching window, or by using the hotkeys.
Using Desktops
Unlike other virtual desktop utilities that implement their desktops by showing the windows that are active on a desktop and hiding the rest, Sysinternals Desktops uses a Windows desktop object for each desktop. Application windows are bound to a desktop object when they are created, so Windows maintains the connection between windows and desktops and knows which ones to show when you switch a desktop. That making Sysinternals Desktops very lightweight and free from bugs that the other approach is prone to where their view of active windows becomes inconsistent with the visible windows.
Desktops reliance on Windows desktop objects means that it cannot provide some of the functionality of other virtual desktop utilities, however. For example, Windows doesn't provide a way to move a window from one desktop object to another, and because a separate Explorer process must run on each desktop to provide a taskbar and start menu, most tray applications are only visible on the first desktop. Further, there is no way to delete a desktop object, so Desktops does not provide a way to close a desktop, because that would result in orphaned windows and processes. The recommended way to exit Desktops is therefore to logoff.Screenshot
