2 Comments | 228 views Like my daily routine, I was browsing Gizmodo and found an article about Mark Zuckerberg donating half of his fortune to charity. Here is the snippet from Gizmodo.
Joining up with Bill Gates, George Lucas, Warren Buffett, and 50 other billionaires, Zuckerberg has agreed to donate the majority of his wealth to charity, as part of the Giving Pledge movement Gates launched back in August.
It’s the largest philanthropic work ever done, with over 50 billionaires pledging to give away most of their fortunes to various charities. They’re not legally bound to do so, but if they renege then I imagine all hell would break loose. Just imagine having Gates’ beady glare on you, wherever you go. *shudder*
15 other billionaires signed up recently, alongside Zuckerberg. AOL’s co-founder Steve Case, and investor Carl Icahn are just some of the names you might recognize. The charities on the receiving end of the Giving Pledge’s handout haven’t been named yet, but considering Gates fascination with green issues, I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw some funky eco-friendly initiatives start looking…well, greener.

6 Comments | 396 views There was a time when email spam was so popular and seemed never ending. But now after a lot of efforts and inventions at least we have been able to minimize the spam mails if not able to stop them.
Anyways lets get to the real topic of discussion. I have been receiving spam messages where the senders number is not visible, just a text instead of number. This is due to the mass messaging services provided by various companies now. In fact, I also received a message which was about this service. The message was about an offer to purchase 10,000 messages for 1000 Rs that I can send to any mobile in India and that too anonymously. I am a NDNC (National Do Not Call) subscriber but still I am receiving these kind of messages. Yes I checked it. Thank God there is a national database to check your registration and the shocking part was that it worked. Check yours here. I have complaint about it numerous times to my carrier (Reliance) but never got a solution. And the funny part is that even reliance used to send me those promotional messages and when I asked them to stop sending those promotional messages they said it would take 45 days to get it done. What crap !

This Korean super-genius was born in 1962 and might just be the smartest guy alive today (he’s recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as having the highest IQ of anyone on the planet). By the age of four he was already able to chilread in Japanese, Korean, German, and English. At his fifth birthday, he solved complicated differential and integral calculus problems. Later, on Japanese television, he demonstrated his proficiency in Chinese, Spanish, Vietnamese, Tagalog, German, English, Japanese, and Korean. Kim was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records under “Highest IQ”; the book estimated the boy’s score at over 210.
Kim was a guest student of physics at Hanyang University from the age of 3 until he was 6. At the age of 7 he was invited to America by NASA. He finished his university studies, eventually getting a Ph.D. in physics at Colorado State University before he was 15. In 1974, during his university studies, he began his research work at NASA and continued this work until his return to Korea in 1978 where he decided to switch from physics to civil engineering and eventually received a doctorate in that field. Kim was offered the chance to study at the most prestigious universities in Korea, but instead chose to attend a provincial university. As of 2007 he also serves as adjunct faculty at Chungbuk National University.
