Vivek Pradhan was not a happy man. Even the plush comfort of the air-conditioned compartment of the Shatabdhi express could not cool his frayed nerves. He was the Project Manager and still not entitled to air travel. It was not the prestige he sought; he had tried to reason with the admin person, it was the savings in time. As PM, he had so many things to do!!

He opened his case and took out the laptop, determined to put the time to some good use.

"Are you from the software industry sir," the man beside him was staring appreciatively at the laptop. Vivek glanced briefly and mumbled in affirmation, handling the laptop now with exaggerated care and importance as if it were an expensive car.

Nice Poem (Veer : Brave) by great Hindi Poet, Ramdhari Singh Dinkar ji

सच है, विपत्ति जब आती है,
कायर को ही दहलाती है,
सूरमा नही विचलित होते,
क्षण एक नहीं धीरज खोते,

Why I must believe in GOD PDF Print E-mail

.

Not sure how to put it, because of the literary skills I lack but still.

There can be many reasons why Theists believe in God. Recently I found one more.


It was not more than a couple of days, I was frustrated, saddened and quite "down" at something happened with my friend's family. I was even more frustrated when I felt how limited our power is vis-a-vis nature. I felt helpless as I could not do anything for them, except for prayers.

 And when I prayed, I thought what I was taught years ago in Maktab (school) that all the good and bad comes from your Lord. I thought of it for a moment, and then remembered these are not the power of nature, but test of our Lord. I felt better. Although the sadness didn't go away, but I felt relatively better. And hence I reaffirm again, for my feel good factor .... I believe in GOD. To be less frustrated, and less depressed I believe in God. For everything else as well I believe in GOD.

And for my friend, he is a brave character. He will come out with flying colours. May Allah grant him patience and courage so that his testing time is passed. And I am sure it will.

Prevent unwanted advertisements changing hosts file PDF Print E-mail

In case you do not have a personal firewall blocking unwanted websites, or you do not have a plugin for your browser to block the advertisements coming along with the website you are browsing, an easiest way is to edit hosts file and redirect all those advertisement servers to a non existent local host [127.0.0.0].

In Vista, you may need to run your text editor as administrator to edit the file.

Another tip is to make the file read only after changing so that, its partially saved from malicious attacks.

I used the list of ad hosting server using a google, and here is the complete list. All you have to do, is download the file [Right click, save target as/control click - Download to disk], append the contents to your C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\Hosts file. [Open file named hosts in any text editor e.g Notepad, Ultraedit to edit it.]

May not need to restart the browser but if it does not work, restart your browser.

Well done! So what if the score card does not say perfect 10. It was a great job done.
