Bitcoins!!!

the bitcoins

 

The concept was introduced in a 2008 paper by a pseudonymous   Developer   known only as “Satoshi Nakamoto”, who called it a Peer-to-peer  , electronic cash system and There are people who are very excited about the idea behind Bitcoin. As Bitcoins can be transferred through a computer   or Smartphone  without an intermediate financial institution. The processing of Bitcoin transaction   is secured by servers   called bitcoin miners.

These servers communicate over an internet-based network and confirm transactions by adding them to a ledger  which is updated and archived periodically using Peer-to-peer file sharing   technology. In addition to archiving transactions, each new ledger update creates some newly minted bitcoins. The number of new bitcoins created in each update is halved every 4 years until the year 2140 when this number will round down to zero. At that time no more bitcoins will be added into circulation and the total number of bit coins will have reached a maximum of 21 million bitcoins. To accommodate this limit, each bitcoin is subdivided down to eight decimal places; forming 100 million smaller units called satoshis.
The Bitcoin protocol for the bitcoin cryptocurrency is an open source cryptographic protocol that operates on a peer-to-peer network. It uses a chain or “blockchain” of transactions to achieve consensus and to solve the double-spending problem. …
This article is in 2 parts.The 2nd part would be updated shortly 

Is it all about being seen?

Filmmaking

 Imagine if actors did all the job from cinematography , their make up  and handling the camera .

If they did all the work ,they would surely not last for more than 5 years ,and could surely not maintain themselves .
so now I come to the main point ,the technical department who do the camera works,sound should be encouraged to take this profession ,by rewarding them with good salary and daily wages its because they aren’t payed well they aren’t able to make their kids educated , also since the technical aspect is also a tiring job and not everybody can do it ,these people should be appreciated once a while and make them feel as much important as actors,director,musicians 
also I am sharing my views on this after I read an article today in the newspaper where the generous king khan ,met a wife of a camera man and when she spoke ,and told him that there is no finance for her daughter’s education and hence she had to dropout from school …. Are we exploiting are workforce ,by taking advantage of them because of their education qualification ,if so why ,they are people who are working as hard as actor  and what do they get ,they don’t get noticed,appreciated and get low income enough for a meal a day .
does that mean if you aren’t an actor here you aren’t anything .

London Trip!!!

The London was the most awaited Trip ,there Is surely something about London that drives you crazy ,but the transport connectivity of the buses,trains and the tube drove me crazy since It Is  planned so well that you can just find your way back home ,the only city that came to my mind after seeing there transport facilities was Mumbai since the Mumbai Local “Lifeline of  Mumbai where millions travel by every day .Only If the population could be controlled a bit the railways services could be enjoyed a bit more and if the roads could be better the buses could be enjoyed too .

And the second thing the weather its humidity just kills .

back to London ,the places in London too reminded me about one of my favourite games  during my childhood days and is still my favourite the monopoly that had mayfair ,park lane ,piccadilly circus to name just a few ,every time I  went to any place I would well remember the colour of  the cards .

London are known for the “Gora”whites but you could hardly see any there were mostly blacks for a moment I got confused whether I am in the UK or in a caribbean Island , no I am not being racist here but I am just speaking about an interesting observation .

Also There were hardly any places for the fish & Chips , only Pizza the Italian cuisine has taken over with so many Italian Restaurants.

Overall the Trip was amazing !!! Hope to visit Again soon .

 

The musical play

Wicked- the musical PlayThe musical play ,this was the first time that we experienced this ,as it was a must see while you were here in London ,there were quite a few options too lion king,Matilda,chocolate factory and wicked .We settled for wicked and It was the right choice I guess the sets were as is you were watching a movie on television rather than a live play,the effects couldn’t get better ,and in the end it was one experience worth experiencing in a life time .

Flight journey

emirates There have been many airlines that I have traveled by including Cathay pacific ,Lufthansa ,jet airways ,Turkish airlines and now by Emirates and I was dissapointed by there services the first flight to dubai was just perfect but when we left for London the flight ice the entertainment system was troubling a lot in the seven hours journey i had to change a few seats and jut complete a 2hour movie in seven hours ,I also read a few magazines but people who are restless what do they do?
Some people were happy to get sleep ,while other running to get a seat where the system is working ,for a airlines who have won quite a few awards this was least expected and I also wonder are these awards just for there magazines only because there services were slow ,we were done with our meal 2 hours ago and after 2hours they took away our tray .
This was my worst flight journey and also because it was the longest journey on a stretch .
