Top 10 Most Secure Vaults Of The World

10. Mormon Vault

Our number 10 spot has been taken by The Mormon Vault, also known as the Granite Mountain Records Vault. Yes, the name granite does suggest that it is surrounded by Granite however that is not true. In fact it is surrounded by quartz. The owner of this vault is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and it has been built six hundred feet into the side of a giant rock in Little Cottonwood Canyon, Utah. Here’s the catch, the vault can withstand a nuclear blast so you plan to break into it, better get rid of the blowing-it-up-with-dynamite plan. The doors seal tighter on impact and that is a plus. According to the Mormon leaders, the church is restoring microfilm and microfiche to digital media inside Mormon Vault.

9. Pionen Bunker

The Pionen Bunker; a former civil defense center, is concealed in the side of White Mountain in Stockholm. Converted by Bahnhof, a Swedish Internet service provider into a data center that is protected by a 40cm thick door accessible only via tunnel and capable to withstand a hydrogen bomb, it rents secure space and bandwidth to a variety of customers. WikiLeaks operates from here. The Bunker is something straight out of a spy movie and is coupled with super cool looking computers and, let’s not forget, the spy touch that comes because of the mountain walls.

8. JP Morgan Vault

At number eight, we have the largest gold vault in the world. Its length is equal to that of a football field and it can be found five stories below ground level in Manhattan, New York. It is located just across the street of United States’ Federal Reserve Vault. The second vault of the bank was a mystery until March, 2013 when it was discovered that it is beneath a firm’s office and this vault too is in very close proximity of Bank of England. Also, both the vaults are capable of handling a nuclear blast.

7. Vatican Secret Archives

Well we can thank Dan Brown for really flaring up the conspiracy theories about churches and the same theories come into play once we mention Vatican Secret Archives. A certain theory suggests that all the Church’s secrets can be exposed if one was to gain entry into the Vatican Secret Archives. Catholic officials however say that the vault’s belongings are more private than secretive in nature. The archive is guarded 24 hours a day by Pontifical Swiss Guard and has about 50 miles of book shelves that contain documents dating back to the 8^th Century. The 400^th anniversary of the archive was celebrated by putting some of its contents on display at the Capitoline Museums. Only qualified clergy and academics are allowed inside the archive and they too need advanced approval for certain sections.

6. KFC Vault

Yes, we know what you are thinking. Why on earth would KFC need a vault? Well, this must be serious otherwise it wouldn’t be on number six of the list. They need the vault for their precious recipe, the original by Colonel Sander, for fried chicken. It consists of the eleven unknown herbs and spices. The safe was completed in 2009 and is located in KFC’s headquarters in Kentucky. The recipe is kept within folds of security measures that include but are not limited to motion detectors, cameras and 24 hr guards. Concrete slabs surround the safe and the whole system has a backup power supply.

5. Church of Scientology Vault

Another religious vault located in New Mexican Desert just a few hours away from Roswell, New Mexico. The impenetrable bunker belongs to The Scientologists. The cave can withstand a hydrogen bomb and contains titanium caskets which have steel plates and gold discs inscribed with fundamentals of Scientology. This all is shielded by three 5,000 lb stainless steel doors. The vault is guarded by gates, armed guards and security cameras. Another bizarre thing about this vault is the crop circles above it which look like symbols from air and have certain theories related to them. Some believe it is for communicating with ET.

4. Doomsday Seed Vault

This vault is one thing you will thank after an earthly disaster. It has been built to preserve crop diversity and to provide a source of food in case of any catastrophic events. The Doomsday Seed Vault, officially known as the Svalbard International Seed Vault, is funded by the Global Crop Diversity Trust, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and other organizations and governments. Located in Svalbard-a large rock island in the Arctic Circle inside a copper mine, this vault has blast proof doors, airlocks, motion sensors and about 3 ft thick steel reinforced concrete. Thus, making the vault impenetrable for nature!

3. Iron Mountain Vault

The security company opened up in 1950s and offered their services to cater for the safety of corporate documents in case of nuclear attacks. It has been constructed on an abandoned mine which was previously used as a mushroom farm. The Iron Mountain Vault in Germantown, New York is a 95 acre bunker which is heavily guarded and despite its size, many of the residents are unaware of its existence. The Vault is seven layers deep and is buried about a quarter mile into the mountain. Those who are planning to enter the vault might want to take into consideration the 28 ton, triple time-locked door!

2. Swiss Bank Vaults

 

Switzerland is famous for its banks and how you can get away with all kinds of money(Black or white) once you have it deposited there. However, the reason why these vaults are more famous is not because of their high security but the relationship that bankers develop with their clients. This doctor-patient like relation is of high confidentiality. The no questions asked attitude and the devotion with which bankers provide the customers with the privacy they require are two things that have made the Swiss banks and their vaults so famous. Swiss law is quite strict when it comes to confidentiality in banking or commerce and offenders can face jail time or a heavy fine.

1. Antwerp Diamond Center Vault

The Antwerp Diamond Vault in Belgium is the most impenetrable diamond safe and yet it is also famous for the diamond heist of 2003. The vault housed 70% of the world’s diamonds and was built by 1500 diamond merchants. The safe is obviously guarded as you would expect it to be guarded; heat detectors, Doppler radar, seismic sensors, magnetic fields and lock that could spin your head while you came up with the right combination. The door was thick to the point that it would require twelve hours of continuous drilling to break into the safe. However, all these measures proved to be futile when The School of Turin broke in and stole $100 million worth of diamonds. The discovery of the heist was made next morning. The Antwerp Diamond Center has increased its multi-tier security system after the heist and is regarded the most secure safe.

Smart Rifel That can Record the Shooting Process and Upload in Internet

There’s a new rifle in town, and it’s not a simple new weapon. It’s a high-tech smart rifle that allegedly makes even novice shooters very accurate. With its lasers, built-in computer and color graphic display, you could say it’s a rifle with its own brain and eyes. “They like to post videos; they like to be in constant communication with groups or networks,” he said. “This kind of technology, in addition to making shooting more fun for them, also allows shooting to be something that they can share with others.”

 





Apart from all its high-tech gizmos that make it super-accurate, this smart rifle — which is actually called the TrackingPointPrecision Guided Firearm — also features a Wi-Fi transmitter that can send audio and video to an iPad, allowing the user to relive every shot he takes and share its best ones online, on YouTube or other social media networks or command lively on the desired targets. If this comes to Indian Police – There won’t be any fake encounters in future is my guess.

9 Powerful Ways to Spend a Day

All the time given to you in life is valuable; you just have to know what to do with it.  Let’s make it count.  Shall we?




Starting today, spend more time…



1.  Thinking for yourself.

The uneducated belief in something false that someone tells you is the greatest enemy of your own truth.  Do not let anyone tinker with the freedom of your mind.


The best thing you can do for yourself is to think for yourself.  With all of society’s influences and agendas incessantly trying to persuade you every single second, thinking for yourself is the most courageous act imaginable.  You are a unique human being with independent thoughts and free will; carry on accordingly.


2.  Being a little bit uncomfortable.

If you’re not a little bit uncomfortable on a daily basis it means you’re not growing.


Every aspect of physical and emotional growth arrives from outside your comfort zone.  So be fearless sometimes.  Have the courage to take the risks that feel right.  Go where there are no certainties.  Stretch yourself and your routines even if it means feeling a bit uncomfortable.


The road less traveled is sometimes laden with potholes, bumps, and unexplored territory.  But it is on this road where your strength grows and your dreams gradually reveal themselves.  Read The Road Less Traveled.


3.  Taking baby steps in the right direction.

Throughout this beautiful day you have hundreds of little opportunities to move your life in the direction you want it to go.  When was the last time you woke up and realized that today could be the best day of your life?


Participate in your dreams today.  Do it!  Take one small step forward; there are plenty of ways to do so.  Remember, success is something you experience when you act accordingly.  Success is not something you HAVE, it’s something you DO.


4.  Trying and failing and trying again.

Stick to it and keep moving forward, even when the path gets rough.  One of the most common causes of long-term failure is the habit of quitting after a temporary defeat.


Many of your greatest achievements will be realized when you’re completely exhausted and discouraged but still working.  Because when it’s all said and done, it really doesn’t matter if you try and try and try, and fail and fail and fail, until you eventually learn what you need to know to succeed.  It does matter, however, if you try and fail once and fail to try ever again.


Bottom line:  You only have to succeed the very last time.  Read The Success Principles.


5.  Working through your fears.

How you handle your fears will ultimately determine where you go and what you do with the majority of your life – to experience life fully or be incapacitated by the fear of it.


Although fear can feel overwhelming, and defeats more people than any other one thing in the world, it’s not as powerful as it seems.  Fear is only as deep as your mind allows.  You are still in control.  The key is to acknowledge your fear and directly address it.  You must step right up and confront it face to face.  This tactic robs fear of its power.


6.  Seeking happiness from within.

A choice, not circumstances, determines happiness.  Your happiness isn’t out there somewhere waiting for you, it’s already within you.


Each morning when you open your eyes, say to yourself:  “I, not external people or events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today.  It’s up to me.  Yesterday is gone and tomorrow hasn’t come yet.  I have just today and I’m going to be happy in it.”


7.  Practicing small acts of kindness.

Aesop once said, “No act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted.”


If you have big plans that can make a real impact in the lives of the masses, by all means, execute your plans.  But don’t let these big plans interfere with the small deeds you can do every day for the people around you.  If you wait until you can do something big for everyone, instead of just something small for someone, you’ll end up doing nothing at all for anyone.



8.  Tracking and measuring your progress.

You are always moving toward something, but YOU have to decide what that something is.  Don’t let someone else decide for you.  From where you stand now you can go anywhere.  There are paths leading in every imaginable direction.  What matters the most right now is the next step you take.


Decide what you truly want for yourself and those closest to you, and know that there is a way, right now, to begin the journey of getting there.  When your intentions and actions have a specific, focused purpose, each step you take will carry you closer to the realization of that purpose.  Read The Power of Habit.


9.  Letting small annoyances go.

Today, go through your day consciously.  Make an effort to notice at least one insignificant little frustration that you would normally get frustrated about.  Then do yourself a favor and simply let it go.  Experience, in this little way, the grand freedom of being in control of the way you feel.  And realize that you can extend this same level of control to every situation you encounter in life.



At any given moment, the way you feel is the way you choose to feel, and the way you react is the way you choose to react.

India's homegrown social networking site Worldfloat hopes to increase its users to nearly 10 million by the end of next month, giving competition to global giants like Facebook and Twitter. 

"Currently, we have around six million users. It should reach 10 million by June-end," said Pushkar Mahatta, founder of Worldfloat. 

Mahatta said Worldfloat, which was launched last June, was gaining popularity across the world due to its added features. 

"On Worldfloat you can do everything you do on Facebook. But we have added several unique features. The most important is virtual games," Mahatta, also a director of Mahatta Towers, told IANS. 

He said taking into account the increasing popularity of the site, some venture funds have made buyout offers of nearly $300 million. 

"I don't want to disclose the name of the funds, but what I can tell you is I have received buyout offers of up to $300 million," Mahatta said. 

He however said he had no immediate plans to sell the site. 

On special features, Mahatta said on Worldfloat.com there is an option of "treasure hunt game" that allows users to win money while networking. 

"Worldfloat is not just a social networking platform. It is also a way for people to earn money up to Rs.10,000 through online competitions and contests by buying an online ticket of Rs.100," he said. The competition will be launched in a couple of weeks. 

"There is no other technology platform or website today that offers such a unique service and function capable of giving users money through gaming and competition," Mahatta claimed.
