From the last 24 hours the nation was hooked to the news television channels, while one of the largest search operations of the country was going on for finding the whereabouts of the lost chopper in which the C. M. was traveling. The nation is in a state of despair, shock and unbelievable melancholy at the tragic accident.

Everything in going to be analyzed following the incidence and responsibilities will be fixed in due course. We shall begin by analyzing whether there is an astrological angle to the event.

If we analyze the horoscope of time on 2nd September 2009 at 9:12 AM, Hyderabad when the chopper went out of contact. The horoscope analysis of that particular moment is as follows:
The rising lagna is Libra at 00 degree 11 minutes. Immediately after the start of this lagna, the problems in the chopper started. Venus, the karaka of conveyance (also the lagna lord), is afflicted by Ketu indicating mechanical problems and failures in the chopper. The fourth house is very important in this horoscope. Jupiter which is the lord of the 6th house (representing accidents) is placed in the 4th house (conveyance) and it happens to be retrograde. Rahu is afflicting the 4th house by being placed in the 4th house. Moon is afflicted by Rahu / Ketu axis in the same house. To make the matter worse Venus, the lagna lord is also afflicted. Sun also is afflicted by Saturn. In astrology, it is generally observed that when the lagna and both the luminaries viz., Sun and Moon get afflicted, the problem becomes severe. In this chart, the Lagna lord is afflicted. Sun and Moon are also afflicted. This signifies least chance of survival.
Further Astrological Observations

The immediate cause of accident was problem in chopper in the air. Air is the domain of Jupiter. Moon's presence in the 4th house gives an indication of the watery environment caused by rainfall. Rahu in conjunction made the weather highly inclement.

The Capricorn rashi (representing earth element) rising in the 4th house indicates accident becoming lethal after touching the ground when the chopper might have been engulfed by fire. Here, special reference of Sun and Saturn conjunction in Leo rashi (representing fire element) in the 8th house from the Moon is significant. The 8th house represents longevity and is generally seen for the cause of death.

Thus, all the astrological stars were against the traveling party. We deeply mourn the sad demise of Dr. Y. S. Rajasekhar Reddy and all the co-travelers. May their souls rest in peace and the God gives solace to the families affected.

Why Not Using a Legit Motorcycle Appraisal Service Could Spell Disaster!

There's an old story you may or may not have heard called "The Emperor Has No Clothes". It's about A King who lost his mind and started wandering around the kingdom buck-naked. But, because he was King, no one was willing to tell him he was naked. In fact, they went out of their way to humor him and actually gave him compliments on his fine clothes.

Many times people, who have had long involvements with friends, suddenly find themselves at the end of that relationship and almost always, the reason is because they start hearing advice or information they don't like from the other party. And as a result, they'll move on to someone else who will either give them the advice they like or will simply tell them what they want to hear.

PRICE CHOPPER APPLICATION

So rather than risking the chance of destroying a longtime relationship, friends and associates many times are unwilling to say what they really think or feel, thus leaving you "walking around naked"!

It's helpful and useful to have someone close, who you can trust to tell you the truth. By trust I mean they have no agenda of their own. They are by nature, blunt and brutally honest along with being knowledgeable and successful. These people give you "just the facts" and this mannerism and type of behavior also applies to your custom built motorcycle as well.

Whether you have just finished building your own custom motorcycle or you just purchased a factory bike, and are seriously upgrading it, getting it appraised for proper insurance coverage is an absolute necessity to make sure you've got your investment properly protected!

Let's be realistic. If you want to ride, you've got to have motorcycle insurance. And, any insurance company that will even consider covering a one-off special construction motorcycle requires an approved appraisal!

As you know, there are no book prices on custom-built motorcycles and the actual cash value of a custom chopper can vary by substantial amounts of money based on the different types of components used in its construction.

Because of this, the motorcycle insurance underwriters require a qualified and accredited independent third party capable of producing an appraisal report detailing the construction of the bike and able to assign a value on it.

Here's the problem though. Any person or bike shop can hang up a sign saying they are appraisers and start producing "reports". And, if the report looks like it's official, some insurance companies may accept it without asking any questions.

So what's the big deal you ask? Okay let's think the unthinkable. Let's imagine you've parked your pride and joy in the parking lot of the local watering hole. And as you're getting ready to leave you discover that it's gone! But, you're thinking... "Fear Not, I have insurance to cover my loss". It's now time to play truth or consequences with your insurance company.

At this point your insurance company will begin to examine your appraisal with a microscope. If they feel that it is not detailed enough, the value seems high or there is a question about the legitimacy of the party that prepared it, you've got problems.

And the worse part is, if they discover that you got the appraisal from someplace like "Not-So-Swift Choppers" who is not qualified to do produce an appraisal document, chances are you are up the creek without a paddle!

The thing of it is, you can easily avoid being caught in that situation by using the services of a qualified, recognized and accepted appraisal source. Remember, after you've gone through the expensive and tedious process of building your own custom bike, unless you have a legal document from an accepted appraisal source stating the true value of your motorcycle, you are NOT going to get the insurance coverage you want and need leaving you flirting with disaster!

Enterprise Application Management - Phases, Components and Role of Maintenance and Support Services

There are many enterprise applications like, Enterprise Resource Planning/ ERP; Customer Resource Management/CRM etc. are the applications which constitute the whole enterprise application set, which is required to conduct the integrated processes of the enterprise as whole. The idea to select, develop and implement an application in the enterprise needs proper planning and investigation before hand. This is because it involves huge amount of resources in terms of time, money and efforts.

Enterprise Applications Management directly contributes to the net earnings of the organization. The application life-cycle is divided in to two phases. First one is application development, which is then divided into application development and application deployment. Deployment or implementation whatever we call it is the period form where you can estimate the successful of your application. The second phase is maintenance and support phase. It includes the frameworks like SOM, COBIT etc.

APPLICATION

But to develop an edge over the competitors, enterprises have to strive for continuous development tools like this one. It helps them keeping their name and status at the top by performing efficiently with no or minimum wastage of resources available to them. This phase of the conceptualizing the idea then developing, testing, implementing and feedback retrieval is called as application development cycle.

Every Enterprise Application Management involves testing before final implementation. During the testing phase inhibitions are noted and then corrected if any, to get down to the final implementation work. Once the implementation is completed, the employee feedback is recorded by the experts during the real-time work period. Enterprise Application Management thus can be said as a continuous process, leaving not even a single time error to be left in the system, since it could be fatal to the enterprise in long run.

There are four main components of Enterprise Application Management system and that are:
1. Application Development
2. Infrastructure Management
3. Application support
4. Quality assurance

The development refers to the initial conceptualization time, when experts try to find out the best possible application software for the enterprise within their specified budgets and controls. It includes functions like:

• Requirement engineering
• Development
• Re-engineering
• Migration
• Enhancement

Infrastructure management refers to the availability and management of the environment where the application would be set up. Infrastructure is needed for the establishment of any enterprise application for its implementation and maintenance. Its sub functions are:

• IT help desk,
• Desktop management
• DB administration
• Network management
• Server management

Application support refers to the set up required to allow the application system work in the enterprise in real. Without the application support unit no application or process can work at all. The main functions of application support system are listed below:

• Production support
• Maintenance
• Bug fixes
• Integration and
• Performance optimization

Every enterprise needs application support services to maintain, develop and Enterprise Application Management. For that a specified framework is needed without which the system development and application election and designing can't be initiated. That environment is constituted of the following-

For Application development, enterprises require SCA and CMMi.

For Infrastructure management purpose COBIT and Six Sigma are required. For support purpose the existence of QA and COBIT like applications in the enterprise system is required. The tasks performed within the Quality assurance unit are Functional testing, Compatibility testing, Test automation and Performance engineering.

Zoom, Motorcycle:

CHOPPER

This American Chopper party game is fun for the kids and is meant to be played while sitting down so the adults at the party can relax a bit too. Get everyone at the party in a circle and tell them that the group is going to start up one of the great motorcycles that have been tricked out on American Chopper. You'll start the motorcycle by saying zoom and the person next to you will repeat zoom and this will continue from person to person around the circle. Then you'll try and get the motorcycle going a bit faster by trying to get everyone to repeat 'zoom' faster and faster. Any person can stick out their arms and yell 'Eek!' when the zoom reaches them to stop the motorcycle. Though the motorcycle has to go into reverse when this happens. Whoever just said 'zoom' will say it again and the person before that and so on until someone stops the motorcycle again.

Chopper's Slogans:

Make up a bunch of slips of paper with the names of each of the guys and gals from the American Chopper party on them. You can list one person two or three times to make enough slips so everyone at the party can choose a name. Have each person draw one slip from a hat and give them each a pencil and paper. Have each person create a fitting American Chopper slogan for the American Chopper employee that's been drawn.

For the hardest part of the American Chopper party games each person has to begin each word of the American Chopper slogan with a letter from the character's name. Then everyone will read their slogans out loud and you'll pick the best.

The kids will really enjoy these two American Chopper party games. If you play some episodes of the show and have lots of good food at the party you'll have an even better time.
