Thanks to all for your opinion.. I guess you are absolutely right... If one is talented and can showcase his skills, he is sure to be rewarded... But, I don't agree with you on the saying that standard is pretty much same all over... I guess standards are completely different in different countries..
Some countries you get appreciation too quickly especially in places where there is a shortage of labor and places where there's enough supply, it is really tough to walk up the ladder...
Here is a link to the current unemployment status in USA - http://www.tradingeconomics.com/united-s...yment-rate

Please go through it and interpret it correctly ..
I would like to point out that that unemployment rate has gone down from 6.70% to 6.30%, but then this is a very insignificant difference and it is possibly due to other factors such as less immigrants, people overseas for work, etc.
Thanks for sharing the link mate.. I did go through it and concluded that the unemployment rate in America is same, 0.4% difference isn't that significant at all.. But do you have any clue about the cause behind this?
Well, rigon, there are dozens of causes behind this and a combination of many factors.. And it is just not that the factors pertain only to America, they actually are global..
It in fact started off in 2008 with the global economic crisis and around nine million jobs were lost at a go.. Thereafter, many domestic factors came into play, like education and training, industrial consolidation, labor unions, income inequality, technology improvements, etc..

Buy 10 SP30 miners. When you make your first 25k then put them back into your pocket, next 25k reinvest into mining. I would advise you to exchange BTC only when new and better mining equipment comes out or when BTC reaches at least 1000$.
I was thinking about mining too,since bitcoinis on the wave ,better to mine it than buy it.But what about the electricity consume and the space?I have an small apartment ,so not to much free space,plus i am thinking that i need an extra AC too?

I can't imagine doing something I don't love. I like to feel like I'm working towards my passion and actually building something meaningful in society.

Even if I have to risk starving, it'll be okay because you only get one life. Don't waste it living someone else's.
Right zolace..

can't imagine too..Do something that we don't want to do can make me feel sick n going crazy..

Wake up at morning, go to work n at evening come back to home then go to sleep..

There no meaning in this life if going like that .

I am about to finish a masters degree in business administration from UK and thinking to work in USA? Can anybody guide me right to the current employment conditions in the country? Few years back, companies in the country were laying off employees.. Is that still continuing ?
Firstly, why do you want to move out of UK... If there are no specific reasons, why don't you consider getting yourself a job in UK only.. There are oodles of multinational companies in the country offering great opportunities with attractive remunerations.. Give it a thought..

I would rather make a lot of money making other people miserable Cheesy No really, I would rather do something for the "greater good" something that benefits society and improves the quality of life, than something of little social value like selling stocks. Sorry Gordon Gekko, greed is not good!! I think that was a mistake...when avarice was no longer considered a sin!!

What about fix deposit or term deposit?
Some say that it is for the one who wants to play safe,at least it gives you fixed amount of profit without any risk.

What's your plan in case of an alien invasion???

I would probably start by getting my family and friends safe in an underground base. Then start gathering supplies and weapons to start a rebellion. Then get people to fight against the aliens or die trying.
If they are capable of galactic conquest then I fear that we are far to primitive to even dream of repelling an alien invasion. That being said, i'd still try to survived as long as I can and take out as many of these alien as I can if possible!

The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind. I have been playing it since I was about 16 and I have put no less than 1000 hours into it total.It is followed closely by Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath, which is followed closely Mega Man

Great article. I really appreciate the time taken by the author to examine many of the potential implications of the development of distributed consensus technologies. We've heard a lot of these ideas mentioned in various places over the past few years, but here they are gathered into a thorough, well-written article that I can refer people to when they ask me why I'm so enthusiastic about bitcoin.

The Matrix is absolutely not to be missed. Even people who don't like science fiction or even action films will more than likely enjoy this film. It is well presented, it is not unnecessarily excessive, and it presents the most innovative camera work in years. It has something for everyone.

Where are you on the spectrum?
Honestly, a mixture of drugs, absolutely nothing compares with it. If you think sex is the best then I say you haven't lived, the amount of euphoria you can experience by hacking your brain is out of this world.

It's been 40 years since Armstrong landed on the moon, so why hasn't anyone gone up there again? Why hasn't another country developed the means to travel to the moon?
I also saw a documentary about how the entire thing was a hoax, but that was a while ago. Have they proved that the moon landing was not a hoax?
975  Other / Politics & Society / Re: US culture vs Indian culture on: June 09, 2014, 02:54:20 PM
But its not like that if you will do well research you will find that Indians are more intelligent and have capability to get good job as comparison to Americans.

Do you have any proof for all this? If Indians are that intelligent, why India remains as a third world country? Even China, has leaped light years ahead of India. Indians are good at only one thing. Increasing their population.
There are a lot of differences between American and Indian culture and values.Few similarities are also here as mentioned by rigon. One thing you know in all area Americans is ahead but the spirit of competition is more in Indians people as compared to Americans. And competition is what brings out the best in people and achieves the best results.
976  Other / Politics & Society / Re: US culture vs Indian culture on: June 09, 2014, 02:05:55 PM
Hmm that’s big theme to discuss , But yes we could say that , but you can not judge American family's by only that fact . American's are staying less with the family because country is giving them a change to start their life good job , and everything else ...

What about Obama?The greatest political leaders ever has to be our very own Barack Obama.. He has been doing a great job,, strengthened his own country as well as allowed to others to flourish...

Do You Smoke ..? I do 3-4 cigs a Day..!
You shouldn't smoke any cigarettes a day, none, it's a very disgusting, addictive bad habit and it kills!
But if you are not persuaded to stop then 1-4 cigarettes a day is ok. It will still kill you but not as quickly as like ten a day.
979  Other / Off-topic / Re: The Real Reason You're Circumcised on: June 09, 2014, 09:42:49 AM
I don't get the debate if its right or wrong. The most disturbing thing about circumcision is that parents do it to their boys without giving them the opportunity to choose. It's not a matter of hygiene or pleasure. It's a matter of messing with the bodies of others.

Over a month ago, about 250 girls were kidnapped from a Nigerian school and taken to a remote area, all in the name of Islam. Their stance is that western education should not be allowed. Since then videos have been released and one showing the killing of a woman.

What are thoughts on Boko Haram?
Did you know that before the 250 girls were kidnapped, about 25 young boys were killed by having their throats slit? That is how dangerous this militant group is. The Nigerian govt has not been as proactive as the world expected them to.
However, Boko Haram is a radical Islamic group and as such, the religion itself cannot be blamed.
By the way, before a country rushes to the aid of another country, they first ask themselves how will it serve them? It is sad but true. Countries don’t just simply help other countries out of the goodness of their hearts. They often have vested interests in that country for example oil, investments etc..
