Reviews Of Spy Gadgets

Wednesday, September 19, 2007

I have watched lots of 007 movies since childhood and I have been a fan of Hollywood movies where spy movies are one of my favorite ones. Lots of times I fascinate those fancy gadgets used by 007. Those handy tools that he uses when he is in trouble are just so unrealistic to believe but yet, as they say in science, “nothing is impossible.” I had thought that in the future the gadgets used by 007 will come in the marketplace for real. Those science fiction (sci-fi) movies were to happen in reality in future. Well so far lots of the things have come to reality and it is hard to believe that some of those gadgets are in the marketplace for real.

Well, have you ever thought of a website which has all the latest spy gadgets and products listed that is actually available in the market today? Well I am not kidding! There indeed is a website which has reviews of latest spy gadgets and devices that is available today in the marketplace. The author of the website has managed to post reviews in the site. He has given the anchor text name of his website as Spy Review. You have to visit the site to feel and have the update of the spy gadgets that are actually available today. There are so many of the products that I don’t know which one to blog about and which one to name my favorite one. But the first two that caught my eyes would be the spy phone and the spy books that are listed in his website and which are available in amazon.co.uk for sale. I am sure if you are a fan of 007 and if you want to know about the latest spy products this is the site to be in.

Technology And China With TechFreak

Monday, September 17, 2007

It has been a long time since my mind was pretty caught up with different things about the future situation of our country and what our lives will be in our upcoming future. All these things just got me sick and I thought of going out for a walk to my friends. I got one of my close friend, Shyam Krishna Prajapati, who is my friend since we were in Grade II. He has a Chinese gift shop, Unique Gift Center, at Mahabouddha, Kathmandu, Nepal. I usually go there when I had my medical transcription job. I would be their in my lunch breaks and after office hours as well. The area where is shop is situated is often named as Khasa Bazaar or Chinese Bazaar, as most of the shops there sell goods brought from China and Khasa (border of China and Nepal).

Well lots of people don't realize it but China has helped us in many ways in terms of technology. Of course Japan comes at the top list when it comes to developing and bringing the technology in the world, but for us China is our technology. We can only read about the latest technology developed by Japan and other countries but with China, we get to use it. For a poor country like Nepal, China is doing a great work by sending the latest technology in our hands in such a cheap price. I always have noticed so many new technology stuffs are available in the market but none of them can be found in any websites and for sure lots of the people around the world would never know what China offers either. So I had been working on developing and creating a website, moreover to blog about the latest and cheapest technology, and I thought of adding those goods from China in that site. Currently the is under construction for the template and other issues, but I have been working on it for the past three months or so. I will be reviewing that site and will post it here as soon as it is ready and live. So keep waiting guys. The name for the site will be http://www.techfreak.info.

Crown Prince Paras Of Nepal Had A Heart Attack

Friday, September 07, 2007

Yesterday, again I was watching avenues television. I just couldn't sleep at the daytime. Usually I work at night and in the daytime I take some rest. I just thought of tuning into something good so that I could sleep and dream about it. Yeah sounds funny but mostly I do those sorts of crazy things. Then suddenly it was avenues televisions showing breaking news again. I thought it must be other hot news again; otherwise, avenues television only starts from 6 in the evening. It was showing footage of our prince Paras taken to a hospital by some army people. I thought may be the royal family sustained another attack. I called my mom and dad to watch the news then I know that prince Paras had sustained a heart attack.

I thought it was serious and might be fatal but later on the news described it as just a simple attack and that prince was okay by then. The news then went on for the rest of the day on avenues television. They were claiming that only they have the footage of the prince being taken to the hospital. That was true. I surfed on all the Nepali channels, none of them had any footage but only news and interviews with the doctors.

Prince Paras sustained heart attack in the morning while he was having his breakfast tea. Then at 10:15 he was taken to the Norvic Hospital for further treatment after two of the doctors visited his house. Immediately at the hospital a procedure called angioplasty was done. The doctors had hard time explaining that to the news persons. It was clearly visible that the news persons were unable to even pronounce the word. Angioplasty is simply, "The repair of a blood vessel, as by inserting a balloon-tipped catheter to unclog it or by replacing part of the vessel with either a piece of the patient's own tissue or a prosthetic device: coronary angioplasty to widen an artery blocked by plaque."

The procedure was just to normal for the doctors at the hospital as it was a daily happening thing for them. They described they do such procedure to most of the patients who have artery blockage, and that it is the standard procedure throughout the world. They also confirmed that prince was okay and that he will be discharged after four or five days of stay in the hospital. 2-3 days in the ICU and then 2-3 days in the recovery room and prince will be ready to go to his house.

Series Of Bomb Blast In Kathmandu Valley Killing Two And Dozens Wounded

Monday, September 03, 2007

I was with my dad on my way home nearby Tripureshwor. The time was around 4:30 p.m. (Nepali Standard Time, +5:45 GMT). We just reached the cross section of main road and we headed up to the small road (galli) and suddenly we heard a big blast. My dad was about to go back to the main road but I just ignored the blast and told him not to go as I thought it might be some lightening striking on electricity pole or something like that as it was raining quite lightly by then. So we reached home and I was on the phone making plans for the evening with my friends. Suddenly dad comes in and says, "We just missed the bomb. We are just safe." I didn't get what he was talking about but later I remembered that blast. I then switched on the TV and I watched the news entire evening. We just canceled our evening plans and were on our homes watching that dreadful event.

I was watching avenues television all the way throughout the evening and other news channels as well. Whole Kathmandu Valley was terrorized. Everybody was in a shock and most of the people didn't even believe the fact, the fact that there were three different series of simultaneous explosion in Balaju, Sundhara, and Tripureshwor. According to the news, two were dead and dozens others are wounded.

In Balaju, the bomb was in a microbus which was parking near the Balaju Industrial Area. The blast just teared off the microbus into pieces. The news showed some graphic clips of the wounded people and there was the foot of one of the victim on the road just left deserted on the road. The wounded are taken to the Siddhartha Hospital and Bir Hospital. The wounded also include a two-year-old child whose mother is taken to Bir Hospital for further treatment. The clips were unedited as they were showing the fresh clips live on television in the gap of five minutes or so.

Blast in Sundhara and Tripureshwor took place on the bus stands killing two. One of them was Anita KC, a class 12 student at Vishwaniketan Higher Secondary School, and another was 40-year-old woman who is yet to be identified. They were both declared dead at Bir Hospital and their bodies have been taken to TU Teaching Hospital for post postmortem. Other dozens have people has been wounded and taken to the Bir Hospital.

According to the news, a little-known group called Terai Army has taken the responsibility of the blast. A person named Mr. John telephoned BBC Nepali Service and claimed responsibility. Another person claiming himself as Mr. Deva, a leader of Terai Army, told BBC Nepali Service that they were working in the interest of Terai region. He said they are ready for any talks if the government calls them for dialog. Another hitherto unknown organisation calling itself Terai Utthan Sangat has also claimed responsibility for the same incident.

The news also had the details of the blast might being the cause to stop the constitutional election to be held after 80 days. Other details was Nepal having the same crisis and phase of terror on the same date three years ago when some 16 people were killed in Iraq. The whole nation showed the frustration by ripping of the manpower offices and some Muslim mosque were also attacked during that incident.

I don't know what will be the future of Nepal but so far the signs aren't showing that it will be a peaceful country like it used to be. The regular banda program were just too much to tolerate and now we have the series of bomb blast in the heart of the city. I don't know what is the outcome of this act. How will Nepalese government take this? What will be the reaction of the people? Will there be peace after the election? Will there be a peaceful election?... Lots of other questions are still there which I think wont be answered so soon. I am just helpless and I just can wait and watch for the next act... Meanwhile I want to express my condolence to the families of those killed in the bomb blasts. May there be peace in Nepal soon!!!

In traveling season proper information about destination, vacations for tourists are an important section of travel agent training. Another proper way for travel guidance is travel magazines. These magazines provide information about the famous places, resorts and hotels. As about adult vacation, cancun vacation etc. Internet is also a major source of information about vacations as it provides informational websites for example about kauai vacation. Also provides detailed online information about cancun vacation etc.

Embassy And Government E-mail Accounts Hacked Worldwide

Saturday, September 01, 2007

I was watching Star News (an Indian news television channel) yesterday and I heard a news about someone hacking the e-mail accounts of the embassy and government of India. Later when I heard the news in detail, it revealed that it is a Swedish hacker who has changed passwords of the e-mail accounts of most of the top government offices worldwide.

I tried to surf the net for further details but I was only able to find the details below and not the exact site where the details of the password are posted. Below are the details I collected:

Usernames and passwords for more than 100 e-mail accounts at embassies and governments worldwide have been posted online. Using the information, anyone can access the accounts that have been compromised.

Computer Sweden has verified the posted information and spoken to the person who posted them. The posted information includes names of the embassies and governments, addresses to e-mail servers, usernames and passwords. Among the organizations on the list are the foreign ministry of Iran, the Kazakh and Indian embassies in the U.S. and the Russian embassy in Sweden.

Of the compromised accounts, 10 belong to the Kazakh embassy in Russia. Around 40 belong to Uzbeki embassies and consulates around the world. Login details for e-mail accounts at the U.K. visa office in Nepal were also posted. Login details for the foreign ministry of Iran, the Kazakh and Indian embassies in the U.S. and the Russian embassy in Sweden were also posted.

Computer Sweden has contacted both the Russian and Indian embassies in Stockholm for comment. The Russian embassy confirmed the leaks and says that logins have now been changed. The Indian embassy declined to confirm the information and give comment.

Computer Sweden has not published where the login details can be found. The information in this story has been verified by Computer Sweden without using any of the published login details.

I am so surprised when I first heard the news. Even government emails are not safe. I just wonder what would happen to small personal accounts as ours. I know some softwares like key loggers by which hackers could hack our activities of the words we typed but I thought if I stay input at my house and only use my personal computer and access my emails, nobody could hack it, but this recent action has made me feel somewhat insecure. I hope the antivirus softwares and top email id companies will take this thing in account and try to find out a secure log in system. Till then I guess I will be changing my password frequently from now on and I suggest the rest of people to do so just to be on the safe side.
