Let there be LIGHT.......

Just before sunrise 6:38am

“I wept when I was born and every day explains why”

It's a Spanish quote....I hope everyone who reads this will get back to the moments where we were resting in so much care and peace, so tenderly in our mother's womb. We were detached from all the odds of this world and everyday life. Life was like a smooth sailing ship. No pressure no tension no intricacies of life no reason to get up every morning put our shoes on and sail away and do our level best to back the "Darwin's theory of Evolution – Survival of the fittest".

The day we are born we are deprived of all this. We are on our own we have to breathe on ourselves, eat, digest and even excrete ourselves. We need to make sure we are awake in the daylight and sleep in the night. So that we are able to cope up with this wired smelling world where the carbon emissions almost make us several year older each day.

We search for someone with whom we can live the rest of the life. See the evens and odds, deal with them, survive them and make ourselves through them. We have no choice other than to be sad sometimes and sometimes happy. Every day is a task a challenge which has only one rule and that is we do not know what this all leads to but need to keep moving on….

Mom I miss that peace....... 

Gujrat....done....back to Pune

      Lot has happened from past fortnight....Hell lot of meetings, configuration, deployments, planning, and beneath all these cutting edge IBM Technology. I returned from Gujrat just yesterday covered Ahmedabad, Anand & Vadodra. Was nice to meet my maternal uncle, aunty, didis, jamaibabus and Bantu (Sonu didi's son). Met them after straight 6 years...quite a long duration though.

      Met some very nice and talented people form so far away who accompanied me in the project. Working with them was a real fun. Vijay Mistry a P-Series Team lead having hell lot of experience, learnt a lot from him; Sravan Madhastu an AIX Specialist and right now serving as SSO Lead; Ajay Dubey a SAP Specialist and currently taking care of SLAs.

      These are some of the moments to remember......

Mr. Vijay Mistry (P Series & AIX Expert)

A very unusual photograph...have a look

Click the photo to enlarge it.....

This is the world's first photograph to show a human figure. This was taken by Louis Daguerre (a French artist and chemist, recognized for his invention of the daguerreotype process of photography - Courtesy: Wikipedia) in 1839. This was the time when Photography was still in its infancy but constant technical contributions given by the very best brains who can understand pictures to its root, has made it possible to put it in a front today where we don't even give a damn to even the Hubble.
The picture is actually of a very busy street with lots of human and vehicle traffic. But the exposure time was very much longer than today's standards (8-9 mins). That made the fast moving city traffic and human figures invisible in the picture. But if you look closely, you can see a gentleman getting his shoes polished. He must have stood really still long enough to get his silhouette in the picture. You can also see an unclear shadow of the chap who was doing the polishing. He must have moved indefinitely in his attempt to do the job, but still his image is vaguely visible probably due to the very short or swift movements he would have made while polishing.

BCCI Gear up for IPL !!!

Shame! Shame! Shame! It's a scar on the face of the international security agencies. Such a terrible act of inhumanism. On the stake of all threats and dangers where no one stood by, Sri Lanka picked to choose to go to Pakistan to just keep the spirit of the game alive. This is what we should have called real Cricket. A game which is par above all caste, creed, religion, country and race. It should have been the symbol of universal brotherhood. A game that has gone through so much transformation and stuggle in a world where Soccer is occupied by most of the minds, to register itself to what we call "A Gentleman's Game". Its time when all the international bodies of national and international security to come together and at least sort out some effective remedy for this kind of brutal act.

History has been a witness to so many times when games were organised and even played ina friendly manner even between the mighty World War!!! Olympics is a live example for this. Even today its glory has not shattered and still its considered a privilage to be a part of this giant gaming platform. Lets stop to plead at least and rather gear up to take a pledge to play play and keep playing....

Come on nations!!! Cheer Up lets play the forthcomming IPL and make it a success!!!

Lets give a blow on the face of militancy and show them that at least for the sake of games we are united!!!

Lets convince the organizing authorities of IPL to organise this grand event and make it a success... Lets all be a part of it. At this point of time lets forget about all the profit and loss and aim at teh universal brotherhood. BCCI gear up!!!

USB Auto Play Turn Off !!!

Windows really makes life hell when it comes to Viruses, Malicious Softwares, Adwares , Malwares, Trojans, Worms.....and the list gos on and on....
And to make life more worse there occured the invention of USBs. Your system is equiped with the latest antivirus definitions and you think that you are free enough to share anything that can be done with our so dear USB drives. These "Small Wonders" can make you wonder to your worst imagination when you get to learn that it just popped open without even asking for your permission!!!
It does not even give you the slightest chance of tracking whats there inside them. And by the time you close the drive window and set it for the traditional "Antivirus Scan", the damage was made.
No need to cry and blame the friend or coleague who gave you the USB or the USB itself. The "Autoplay" feature in windows is the main culprit !!!

"HOW TO DISABLE USB AUTOPLAY?"

Good question I must say. Well the answer is better than that and hope you will find it not that tough to implement. Here you go.....

1. Click on the "Start" button and go to "Run".
2. Type "gpedit.msc" without quotes in "Run" and press "OK".

3. Go to Computer configuration >> Administrative Templates >> System.

4. Scroll down until you are able to find "Turn off Autoplay" and double click on it.

5. Now Click on the "Enabled" radio button.

6. Then go to "Turn off Autoplay on" and select "All Drives".

Have great time sharing from USBs now.

Congratulations Bro!!!!

Well well well.... This is what happens when you strive hard and surpass all the criticism, guilt, humiliation, and failures. You evolve to be the best. Success descends to you. People then have no way out but to accept your expertise and applaud for all the happiness you have given them....

I congratulate my sweet little bro for getting the Best Academic Result in the whole College!!!

Keep it up and may God Bless You always.....

Ocean...

Well well well.....after so many days of hectic schedules i finally got the moment of cribbing something on my blog sheet. Yesterday was a pretty good day for me as i completed my first N Series Storage configuration and implementation in one of the largest cellular service provider of India. It was an awesome experience. Learned a lot as this was something that i did all by myself. I would like to convey my thanks to Mr. Hemant B K from Bangalore and Mr Ayaz Patel from Pune to help me out of a couple of very critical intricacies of the configuration. But finally it got over and i took a breath of relief and content.

I happened to see the film “MOMENTO” from which the Tamil “GAJINI” was inspired. It was really cool other than the “short term memory loss, the camera and the tattoos” nothing was common. An awesomely edited and nicely shot film one must grab it and the story is incredible too.

In between I also happened to go to Mumbai to see my best friend. I spent some really good time with him. He was very happy to see me and so was me. And why not, after all we met after about 3 years!!!. Saw Mumbai and also the sea…. It was my first glimpse of an Ocean. I was overwhelmed but couldn't catch Juhu Beach as I was running short of time. Will be posting the photographs soon.

Sayonara till my next post.

God bless all….

PLASTIC MONEY

A few days back I went to have dinner at a quite good restaurant in one of the most happening place in Pune. Its better i don't mention the name. That's not important at all....

Well what's important is that we had a good stomach full of great food. The story goes on good till now. The bill was around Rs. 300. Quite descent one if I am on the table. We both got up from our respective chairs and thought of heading towards our home and grab a good sleep. I took out my debit card to make the payment. Suddenly the guy said " Sir we don't accept CARDS."

My next course of action was to peep into my black leather wallet which holds almost all the receipts, notes, small chits, useless visiting cards etc. I couldn't find a single bill of denomination more than Rs. 10 !!!

Then I just thought that maybe my dear friend will help me out from this 'usual situation' as nowadays i am really getting dependent on PLASTIC MONEY. My friend tried a lot but couldn't squeeze more than a 100 bucks. I asked the man where can i find the nearest ATM? The answer came like " About 1 Km from here..."

I know you all might be thinking what a restaurant is that cant accept cards!!!! But that is not what i want to convey. I was amazed how i am getting used to PLASTIC MONEY???? I could have carried with me a few hundred bucks, then i wouldn't have got into such a trouble.....

But that's what i had to pay for getting so dependent on my credit and debit cards..... I had to travel about 2 Km to pay a simple dinning bill !!!

Friends i hope you all would take a lesson from my mistake. Don't get used to PLASTIC MONEY. It might sometimes even make you go through even a more pathetic situation what i went through.

A visit to JAIN TEMPLE on DIWALI DAY

Happy Bijoya Doshomi and Dashehra to all

May this Dashehra eliminate all odds and induce all evens into
everyone out there. God bless you all...

Truth of GOD

A professor of philosophy speaks to his class on the problem science has with God. He asks one of his new students to stand and.....


Prof: So you believe in God?
Student: Absolutely, sir.
Prof : Is God good?
Student: Sure.
Prof: Is God all-powerful?
Student : Yes.
Prof: My brother died of cancer even though he prayed to God to heal him.
Most of us would attempt to help others who are ill. But God didn ' t. How is this God good then? Hmm?
(Student is silent.)
Prof: You can ' t answer, can you? Let ' s start again, young fella. Is God good?
Student: Yes.
Prof: Is Satan good?
Student : No.
Prof: Where does Satan come from?
Student: From....God.. .
Prof: That ' s right. Tell me son, is there evil in this world?
Student Yes.

Prof: Evil is everywhere, isn ' t it? And God did make everything. Correct?
Student: Yes.
Prof: So who created evil?
(Student does not answer.)
Prof: Is there sickness? Immorality? Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things exist in the world, don ' t they?
Student: Yes, sir.
Prof: So, who created them?
(Student has no answer.)
Prof: Science says you have 5 senses you use to identify and observe the world around you.
Tell me, son...Have you ever
seen God?
Student: No, sir.
Prof: Tell us if you have ever heard your God?
Student: No, sir.
Prof: Have you ever felt your God, tasted your God, smelt your God? Have you ever had any sensory perception of God for that matter?
Student: No, sir. I ' m afraid I haven ' t.
Prof: Yet you still believe in Him?
Student: Yes.
Prof: According to empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol, science says your GOD doesn ' t exist.
What do you say to that, son?
Student: Nothing. I only have my faith.
Prof:
Yes. Faith. And that is the problem science has.
Student: Professor, is there such a thing as heat?
Prof: Yes.
Student: And is there such a thing as cold?
Prof: Yes.
Student: No sir. There isn ' t.
(The lecture theatre becomes very quiet with this turn of events.)
Student : Sir, you can have lots of heat, even more heat, superheat, mega heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat.
But we don ' t have anything called cold. We can hit 458 degrees below zero which is no heat, but we can ' t go
any further after that.
There is no such thing as cold . Cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We cannot measure cold. Heat is energy . Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of it.
(There is pin-drop silence in the lecture theatre.)
Student: What about darkness, Professor? Is there such a thing as darkness?
Prof: Yes. What is night if there isn ' t darkness?
Student : You ' re wrong again, sir. Darkness is the absence of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright
light, flashing light....But if you have no light constantly, you have nothing and it ' s called darkness, isn ' t it? In
reality, darkness isn ' t. If it were you would be able to make
darkness darker, wouldn ' t you?
Prof: So what is the point you are making, young man?
Student: Sir, my point is your philosophical premise is flawed.
Prof: Flawed? Can you explain how?
Student: Sir, you are working on the premise of duality. You argue there is life and then there is death, a good God and a bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite, something we can measure. Sir, science can ' t even explain a thought. It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less fully understood either one.To view death as the opposite of life is to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive thing. Death is not the opposite of life: just the absence of it.
Now tell me, Professor.Do you teach your students that they evolved from a monkey?
Prof: If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, yes, of course, I do.
Student: Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?
(The Professor shakes his head with a smile, beginning to realize where the argument is going.)
Student: Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor, are you not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you not a scientist but a preacher? (The class is in uproar.)
Student: Is there anyone in the class who has ever seen the Professor ' s brain?
(The class breaks out into laughter.)
Student : Is there anyone here who has ever heard the Professor ' s brain, felt it, touched or smelt it? No one appears to have done so. So, according to the established rules of empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science says that you have no brain,sir.
With all due respect, sir, how do we then trust your lectures, sir?
(The room is silent. The professor stares at the student, his face unfathomable. )
Prof: I guess you ' ll have to take them on faith, son.
Student: That is it sir... The link between man & god is FAITH . That is all that keeps things moving & alive.

Wish me luck !!!

Sometimes it's too difficult to understand what i exactly want.... I do something and something else happenes... I surprize myself only :( ... But how far is that going to go like this??? It has to end and it has to happen in a good way.... How will i do it??? I believe i can but got to strom my mind a lot.... or it will happen easily??? :) you see how confused i am but at the same instant i am confident :) lets see.... Wish me luck friends !!!!!

Milliseconds of Life....

Sometimes there is a need of a pinch... a pinch that hurts a lot, then only we can understand and visualize the importance of a good comfortable life... Isn't it??? I believe many of you will agree with me on that. Of course something like a pinch brings you back to your basics. It looks very subtle but bangs you like a a thousand bullet. And thats the point exactly where you feel the what comfort means.... But if we just start surrendering everything that comes up life,it gets out of this entanglement and then there is peace in even the milliseconds of your life....

relax....

ONE OF THE RARE OCCASIONS WHEN I CAN ACTUALLY RELAX....

A Wet Evening....

Yesterday was really a very hectic day for me. And to make it more worse it was raining.... I had gone to the SYMANTEC on a troubleshoot... i started not feeling well suddenly.... I somehow managed to pack up by 6 pm... stud waiting outside waiting the rain to ceasefire.... but it didnt for at least an hour. Then i asked someone for the nearest bus stop and decided to stand on the road in the rain for the bus.... A bus came but left without brake... I stud there in the rain totally wet just saving my THINKPAD for at least 1 and 1/2 hours. not a single vehicle could be seen... I just wante dto take the other way but then i was not able to as there was some road construction going on and the roads were blocked for the next 3kms....

Well then i started walking and to be very honest i did that for the next 3 kms.... and then i got a bus which was looking as a bee hive.... all packed and pushed... stud hanging myself and my backpack to the roof rod and was only standing on one foot for the next 1 hour.... 

I reached home and i didnt have any energy to even eat and i drooped into my bed for the next 7hours.....

Celebrating work at the stake of everything i guess....

Thats my THINK PAD

Am i wrong???

Something is wrong and its really going very wrong. I have been making people around me really unhappy although i never wished like that. I have been going away and to be very specific engrossing into my work and likewise unable to keep in pace with my near and dear ones. Upon that i have been doing things that really make my near and dear ones hate me although i don't want that to happen i don't get a faintest idea that something like that would happen but it happens and throw me into a ditch which is full of mud making me dirty all over....
I am unable to sort it out i don't know ..... i wish all becomes OK God Please Bless me....

Me at the BIG BLUE

Hello everyone. Well the first thing I want to tak about is about my appologies for so late posting I know I wont br spared like this and also I always do like this. I beg everyones pardon and hope I will not repeat this again. Friends actually all this while I was busy with my training at Bangalore on Servers and Storage. Thats what IBM specialises in. And now I am also finding a very good tase in it although it has never been my area of academics or activites. I am amzed at the very sight of implimentation of precise and super efficient technology that IBM uses even for a subtle task. I have now come tokow that what IBM is now is certainly due to the most efficient and unique way of innovating thinking and implimenting the best and unique ideas. The presence of such great technology around me has totally taken me aback and to be very honest I feel like lost in the big ocean of technology and ideas. Thats the very reason why IBM is called a Ocean. And I feel like drowning everyday in deep thoughts and bouncing back with new ideas. It has just been a month now but I feel proud that I am associated to IBM.

Friends form now onwards i guess i will be able to keep in touch regularly

God bless you all
