Derren Brown 'predicts' Lottery numbers
2009-09-11 09:06:00 Derren Brown, the illusionist, has correctly predicted the National Lottery numbers live on television. Channel 4 screened Brown's attempt to call Wednesday's draw across its five channels - the first time the broadcaster has given over its entire network to a single event.He promised to explain to viewers how he achieved the feat in a show on Friday.A smiling Brown said ''I can't believe it'' when he turned over the numbers he said he had selected in advance to reveal they matched all six in the official draw.The stunt marked the start of a new series of television tricks from Brown, whose past shows have seen him perform Russian Roulette live, apparently contact the dead in an interactive seance and convince members of the public to take part in the robbery of an armoured security van.He set up the Lottery event in a secret studio location, telling viewers only he and two cameramen were present.After explaining the line of balls on display contained the numbers he had predi...

Mobile Numbers to start with 8 and have 11 digits soon
2009-07-03 05:31:00 It seems that every Indian is trying to grab a mobile phone leading to a humongous requirement of new mobile numbers. Mobile numbers starting with 9 have come to an end and DoT has given permission to telecom companies to allocate new numbers starting with 8. According to TRAI, India has 415 million cellular subscribers at the end of May 2009 compared to 277 million a year ago, a whooping growth of 50 percent. Since mobile numbers starting with 9 are coming to an end TRAI has allowed operators to allocate numbers starting with 8 which means addition of around 380 million new numbers if the number of digits are still kept to 10. It is also excepted that DoT will increase the number of digits in a mobile number to 11 which will add substantial numbers for disposal. DoT has also ordered the stopping of the usage of 95 in STD and trunk calls, which has freed around 10 crore numbers half of which will be allocated to the operators and rest will be reserved by DoT. How will it impact op...

SHO me the numbers - 4 generations of SHO specs compared
2009-03-06 15:18:00 Nearly complete specifications for the Generation IV SHO have been released by Ford, with the exception of the curb weight of the car, the size of the brakes, and the transmission gear ratios. I've put these together with the specs of the Gen 1-3 cars for ease of comparison. Note that this chart will be updated on the website, not this blog posting, as further information becomes available over the remainder of the year. The specifications of the Gen 1-3 SHOs are drawn from several period sources. The specs of the Gen 4 are based on specs Ford released when the Gen 4 model was announced plus some extrapolation based on MKS specs with additional information pulled from January 2009 EcoBoost press releases. Everything delta to the above for the 2010 SHO is "best guesstimate" and is shown below in italics. Note that the curb weight guesstimate is drawn from the AWD 2009 Taurus weight combined with that of the AWD Lincoln MKS. Since the 2010 Taurus uses the new and upgraded 2010 MKS ch...

My Tuesday — by the numbers
2008-12-18 07:04:00 Like many people who blog, I try not to focus (too much) on me. I try to provide information, pointers and opinion that might be of some value. But, because my Tuesday of this week was so extraordinary, I thought I’d take the liberty of using my blog to blog about my day. Don’t worry, I plan to go back to regular programming soon. On Tuesday, I attended my first Social Media Breakfast — this one in Cincinnati — and saw a very good presentation from ShareThis‘ Tim Shigel. So, while you can learn about the event in many other places, let me tell you how my day went — by the numbers: 1 Social Media Breakfast-Cincinnati, sponsored by GameDay Communications, and hosted by the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame 2 states I traveled in (my own of Michigan and Ohio) 5 people I talked with after Shigel’s presentation: Kevin Dugan, Mike Boehmer, Dan Lally, Kendra Ramirez and Tim from Profitability (from I think a company called Data Storage.

Market heads higher despite bad numbers
2008-12-08 04:26:00 A worse than expected job losses shook the market during the early trading hours but as the clock winds down, it made a spectacular U-turn to close higher. The support at 8150 hold ground. I was all ready to short more should we close below this level... I guess the automobile bail out gave some hope that most of the jobs will be saved. 8834 will be my next resistance...with a view of a stronger resistance at the round number 9k. Looking at HSI, 15,200 to 15,800 level is where i will pick my fight. This is the resistance in which i shall wait patiently for a CS reversal. I am using daily chart here. Should HSI turns bullish or bearish from this point for a Christmas selldown or rally, the banks or insurance companies should move in tandem... using CFDs, my options are unlimited. As for STI, as wierd as it looked, the whole week we were actually trading in a very tight range. It seems to me like something is going to happen soon. There could be more positives than negatives...
