Freedom struggle (in digital world)

While reading some stuff on data compression i came across an advt which says "coding is not a crime" i clicked the link and landed up with an interesting site called EFF yes its true, we are slowly landing into a digital slavery.. with so many constraints to use the BITS. I liked the message of this site. yes we might need to have a freedom struggle for our digital rights. Do you agree with me?

A software dream

I have a wish about what i could do in software. My wish is about software security. inline with my long term plan of doing research and doing something useful. I want to continue my efforts in this aspect with regular attention apart from the work i do at office. i have a new blog now to record my work on for this purpose

But now i am dealing the same things in better way. Its a good learning for me. I dont need to get upset when somebody else does. If i get angry i am ruining myself. If other person does, i dont need to do anything becuase he is harming himself. 10.Similar things in p

Republic day

Today is the republic day of India. Something interesting to refresh our thoughts about slavery under british and the struggle for the freedom. This is needed, because the relativity of freedom and slavery makes us understand how fortunate we are, with the individual liberty we get in our country.

Will I be?

I am in the half way so far house construction is concerned. I want to finish it fully with comfortable facilities. But now it depends on banks to give me some loan so that i can finish. Here is a Sorry Messages collection.

Time

Time is like a merci less beauty. as long as its there, we can feel the comfort. but when we run short of it, it kills you without giving options. Am i using time efficiently?

Dr Batras

I was thinking last month, now i joined Batra's yesterday. It might be costly but i thought my body might be worth of it :-) . Need to be cautious about health.

silence

God give me energy and patience to keep quiet. Some how or the other way i am pulled into troubles by some people. I know they want to test my energies and patience, once i burst, they will make it an issue, and get me shunting. What can i do? other than keeping quiet, and wait for the troubles to go down?. I just want patience to go through the situations and make a life time experience. Here is a personality page Then, here is a note on personality types

The trip home for sankranthi was nice. the snaps are here and here

గమ్యం

అనిపిస్తుంది ఓక్కొ సారి అనుకున్నది సాదించగలనా లెదా అని. కాని అనుక్శనం సాగే ప్ర్యత్నం ఖఛితంగా గెలుపును ఇస్తున్ది. జీవితం అనేది చివరి క్షనం వరకు సాగే యుధం లాన్టిది. ఛాలా వరకు గెలిచామా ఓడామా అనెది కాదు ముఖ్యం, కాని ఎలా పోరాడామనేది ముఖ్యం. అనుకున్నది సాదించలెకపొయినప్పట్టికి ఈ ప్రయత్నం లో మరెన్నొ అద్భుతాల్ని సాదిన్చి తీరుతాం. ప్రయత్నం గట్టిగా ఉన్డి గమ్యం వైపు సాగె ప్రయానం అన్ని అడ్డంకులని ఎడుర్కున్టుంది

bond of trust

A little girl and her father were crossing a bridge. The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter, "Sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you don't fall into the river." The little girl said, "No, Dad. You hold my hand." "What's the difference?" Asked the puzzled father. "There's a big difference," replied the little girl. "If I hold your hand and something happens to me, chances are that I may let your hand go. But if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go." In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in its bind, but in its bond. So hold the hand of the person whom you love rather than expecting them to hold urs... An email forward

Happy Sankranthi

And then

There was an accident yesterday night. both me and my vehicle are safe with some scratches.. It was really some kind of shock. Might be this is to alert me. Looks like there are more and more unexpected things, in front of me.Need to be very much careful. felt dull, but then life goes on!

Prayer

God, Give me strengh to survive and to reach my goals. Give me energy and patience to go through all the troubles and odd times. Show me the right path to go on. Enlighten me to understand good and bad, and to pick the right opportunities and paths. Thanks a lot for being with me, and for your support, in all my life and activities. Today is my birthday,( Happy Birthday Harinath :-) )

Indian Deviation

new analysis of births in India finds that about 10 million female fetuses may have been aborted over the past two decades. Sexual selection is illegal in India, but the practice continues anyway. Fewer girls than boys are born in India. A study published in the journal Lancet says the cause is undoubtedly prenatal sex determination using ultrasound technology, followed by abortion of female fetuses. Courtesy Voice of America News

First Mistake of the year

Yesterday was a great achievement. today's special is that i lost control over myself, when a guy behaved weirdly with me. I could have controlled myself, though I was right.

Good work

When boss asked me last friday, i told him, yes for this friday for finishing the PDF form filling task. Now i have done most of the work, though still one more day is there. I placed lots of my efforts (was thinking one full night(almost)), on the design and the application flow. Then took the feedback from collegues in the office and made improvements. When i started coding, i felt the implementation, will make me slip my word (the friday deadline). But then some how i followed the design,and made the implementation. I am happy about this particular task, finishing a task in few days of time. Ofcourse one of my collegue has worked on similar task last few months. So I am not that new to the task. Good thing is that i did all the coding myself (almost). Didnt use old code etc.. Ofcourse the work is done in 2005 and 2006 (2 years is too much of time isnt it :-) ) Nice to see my first task of the year, getting a closing status. Good work, I am on time (As I am, most of the time :-) ).

What will i be?

I have been working (infact overworking) for the last 10 days or so. Even tired very much but I want to finish the task that i am handling right now. Dinesh was showing me tarot . Intersting site.when i post questions like what will i be? etc. it is giving me very interesting predictions.

Four stages of life

Hindus divided the life into four stages also called ashramas. Life in this body is estimated as 100 years. Isa Upanishad says, Jijivet shatam shama. - one can have a strong and healthy life for hundred years. First stage, brahmacharya, first twenty-five years is spent for study, with discipline and self-control. In modern times, study is a life long process with continuing education, board certifications etc. In the stage of gruhastha, the second twenty-five years one enters the world to work, have family life and to bring excellence to the family and society. Gruhastashrama is considered the foundation of the society, as it is responsible for the other three stages with children going through brahmacharya, parents entering vanaprastha and the sannyasis who have given up the world to teach humanity. With late marriages, divorces and remarriages, there is now a blurred period of gruhastha. The third twenty-five years as vanaprastha were spent in service to humanity – the children a

What does this mean?

I felt embarrassed, isnt it communal harrassment? They might have had great creativity, but I didnt like the advt.

Dont worry Be happy

Don't worry be happy. This sounds such a simplistic phrase, but there is great power and wisdom in it. Worry blocks our thinking, narrows our options and limits us. Being happy increases our creativity and problem solving skills. It increases our energy, motivation and our abilities. Don’t worry, be happy tells us to focus on what we want rather than what we don’t want. When we focus on what we want our actions take us nearer to our goals. When we focus on what we don’t want we move away from what we don’t want. But not necessarily in the direction that we want to go in. Out of the fire and into the frying pan. extract from this site

Good Morning

Today interestingly I got up early (by 7 AM) then went for walking and got ready and in office by 9.30AM. This is something which wont happen that often. There seems some omens which asks me to be careful today about my activities and words. I need to heed to this. I wish i could finish all my tasks pending for the day. Let me see whatz going to happen!.

The new year

Hmm, the new year went well for me. I went to bed around 10.30 PM on 31st night. Was thinking of happenings in life, personal, family and the society. I felt everything is happening as it is supposted to. some bad, some good and some ugly :-). The change in me is that I wore a kurta. Took some decisions, which i want to implement now on. some of them are: 1. Listen to the other person carefully and fully.(I started doing it starting with a altercation with mahesh,my roomie in the morning. I was requesting him something, he took it too personally and did a great job in digging the history, he reminded me that he has crores of property and he doesnt even need to work etc.and went on using some slang. But then I didnt get upset at all. I conveyed him what i wanted to and i listened to him and understood that he didnt listen what i was trying to say) 2. Think.. To think before i say anything or i shoot any mails. I have been doing this for the last few weeks.. some times i do type mails t
