The Power of 72

This is a quick way to calculate how long it will take to double your money if it is invested at a particular interest rate. It is all about the power of time. You take the interest rate you expect to earn and divide it into 72. If you expect a return of 6%, 72/ 6 = 12, it will take 12 years to double your money
 
Take a closer look. You are 24 and have $3,000 in savings. You put it in an account that you expect to earn 8%. According to the Power of 72, it will take 9 years to double your money, so at age 33 you will have $6,000 if you add nothing more to the account. At age 42 you will have $12,000 and at age 60 have $48,000 from a $3,000 investment. Your money is working for you. All you had to do was to leave it alone!

Jaab Tak Hain Jaan




Mere Dil mein Khayal aata hai
                                                                        





Beet gaye wo
                                                                                                                                                                                   
                                                            Chup Gayi wo
                                                                
  Tut gayi wo
                                                                                                                                                                                                
                                                             Bujh gayi wo
                                                                 
 Tham gaya wo
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
                      Jiske
                                                                                                                se Darr na laga
                                                                                                       
                                      Jisne Big B ko Hira banaya



                                                     aise bhi honge kabhi socha nahi tha
Per wo                                                    hai

      Jispe koi                                        Nahi hai
Uska
 
Tere Liye

Indian Railways introduces "Rail Radar"



Indian railways new application “Rail Radar” enables the commuters to know the location of a train on a map and visualize the running-train network on Google maps. The Centre for Railway Information Systems (CRIS), the information technology (IT) arm of the Indian Railways has developed the application.
Available at http://railradar.trainenquiry.com/ , the service allows you find out the exact location of a train. This is an improved version of the earlier tracking system "Spot Your Train."
The interactive map can zoom in and zoom out to get station and train details. Users can search for a particular station or train to get specific details of trains around the station or running status of a train, location, its route and stoppages. Rail Radar also gives an overview on trains running on time as well as status of delayed trains. In case of a mishap/unplanned activity, Rail Radar would be able to provide users with an overview of situation and train status across the country.
Currently, Rail Radar is configured to update/refresh itself every five minutes, which means that in any scenario, the location and status of the trains displayed on Rail Radar will always be five or more minutes delayed. CRIS had announced the launch of the app at NAMA conference hosted by Medianama in Gurgaon.
