4 Men !

Just got to know the 4 greatest moments of man's life, don't know how true it could be..but definitely makes a lot of sense. This scene is from the move "St Elmo's Fire" shot in 1985; it's a movie about the seven friends and their struggle with the adulthood. Definately worth watching this movie :-)

Look for answer within yourself !

There always comes a moment in every one's life when they feel lost in this huge pathetic world, sublimed by deep regrets and most often commit certain grave mistakes which they later regret for the rest of their life. Its not that everyone is strong enough to face and confront every possible hurdle in his life; well in fact some seek support from others and few try to do it independently..its all depends on how these people have been grown up right from the birth. In a way or other our Hindu mythology do talk a lot on these kinds of issues we face in most of the time in our life and the deep thoughts in our mythology do show us a way out in fact i would say they show you the light of hope when you have none. The Bhagwat Gita is certainly the one which teaches us a lot of things..here are few lines which do make a lot of difference in constructing the way of life we human live !

Desi Geek's Home Theatre !

Well one would be pretty surprised to see the time of recording shown right at the bottom of video frame...don't be afraid this isn't shot in future in fact it's shot in present time i.e 2009 ! This the Home Theatre setup @ our own Atlanta den which is showing the Premiere of the every movie damn movie released on the box office but we delay the show by 1 day only.... The only criteria for a movie to make it to our home theatre is the movie needs to good......and for a of course it's should be available on the Internet .

First Snowfall in ATL !

As usually Sunday - always been a lazy ! People waking up late, all the general activities getting delayed. In the end it always ruin your Sunday, and u never know when the Monday is up in the front knocking at your door steps. In fact, this Sunday would have been the same as any other Sunday but as a matter of fact it wasn't...Thanks to the Snowing- God knows whether it was natural or due to the human divine(Ha ha..) intervention i.e Pollution...My last snow visions were in Japan and was bit excited to see it again over here in Atlanta... Didn't really thought of rolling over in the ice but definately wanted to take a few pics with my T9 and of course my Nikon-D80.Check out the snowy pics in Flickr . May be we guys up here will cook some pakoda's and have some tea..the things Indians generally do when it usually rain..But for lazy guys like us we are always on the verse of someone taking a initiative and going forward with the cooking thing ! Hopefully this time as well so...

New Wiki of Chick Specs !!

These days people search for results on Google and Wikipedia for various information and completely rely on them; in fact now a days people have blind faith on what the google says. Well now this site is not what i have ever came across so far (Not really a net surfer) but this one really needs a pip into which tells you the specs of most beautiful damsels or bombshells (whatever you may call them) which matters the most and which carries the real value in the E! World. This site is a complete database of over 10,000 beauties with the complete specs of them. But its too early to say how reliable these data could be but it can be verified as the time passes. Definitely worth Piping Chickipedia ...don't forget to check the "Assets sections"!!! Well for us it gives us a total TP as we people up here check our IQ (Imagination Quotient) against these hot chicks.

Guys ! Just a few days back i downloaded the IBM Lotus Notes 8.0.2 of course via Torrents...Well you wont believe i was excited to see it working which infact worked only after re-installing it for second time (could be a settings mishap during the first installation) But it came out preety good, especially the UI looks more glossy, revamped itself totally with the help of eclipse ! Though its bit slow but whos cares it just takes few more seconds than the earlier versions. Another thing to check out is the Lotus sametime IM client, the Status icons are all new and one new feature where you can set your Geographical region ! WOW ! In the meantime let me explore this in little depth...may be i may find out some new things in here :-)

Jessy Pe Dil aa gaya

Life has always given us a chance to meet new people, some unrecognised, few fimilar ones, some all together different. Well first it was Top Spice, a Thai Restaurant on the Galleria Dr where we meet this lady dressed in blacks whose looks were Asian, infact she was from Bhutan raised by a Indian Mom and Bhutanese Dad. Quite excited to see 4 indians landed in there in late afternoon for a lunch; Her first impressive speech which she started off in typical asian accent and later on she amused us by her handy display of south indians tilak they put on their forehead and her childish talk on the South India which she visted once yet though she didnt had slightest of idea where Hyderabad is ?? Even more strange; She called herself "Dil"..which i doubt if it was her true name or she was trying to get flirtious :-) though the fact we are not the handsome guys on the earth !! And the next thing hapened @ NY Cafe where again four of us were there to bid a farewell to our room mate Ma...

One of my school friends who happens to be in US for long time suggested me to use Localphone instaed of using regular calling cards.Well i have used the most popular calling cards like Airtel, Reliance which most of the Indians in US mostly used but one good thing i found with Localphone is that its cheaper than all and the quality of calls is almost at par with the existing calling cards. The first thing that comes with the Localphone is that once you register the phone numbers you want to make calls on their site, the Localphone assigns it a localized phone number(dont really aware of the technique they are using) and the user just need to call these assigned numbers instead of calling the server and waiting for the IVR to instruct you to dial the desired number. And the second thing its very secure, it asks for the credit card bill details when when the registered user logs on to the website. Localphone users just need to dial the assigned number and talk to whosoever they want to...

Dont Presume !

Well with my kind of experience in this field though i haven't meet much of high profile executives or the people actually looking into the IT sales business...But for sure what i have heard so far from my colleages or my seniors doesn't really give a good image; well it definately gives me a thin feeling that the sales guy are very particular about their job (and their job only) and don't really entertain the people who come for the client accounts these Sales Manager are actually taking care of...But this whole thing changed when i meet my PES Sales Manager up here in Atlanta..Well though its was my first interaction in my career but definitely took me high as i learned that presuming the things before it actually happens makes lot of things worse than it would actually be. The best thing is to let it happen and then you can actually make a conclusion; Possibly for few it wouldn't be a nice experience as i had which torn me apart to think differently but for thos...

Bags Packed..Time to head West !

So finally i will be up my way to the destination where every IT consultant has every imagined to be placed..yes US; Not though Well for me, this opportunity did came at the right moment of time when situations around the globe is hit hard by the recession and certainly in this moment one would definitely want to do something new in order to survive in this ever-changing IT domain.... Let see what the destiny shows me the next...An American dream !! May be who's know ??

The much awaited 3G services is now officially launched in India after much of postponement and unwanted delays caused due to god knows waht many factors. Finally MTNL, the state owned telecom operator kick-started the 3G services here in Delhi and Mumbai yet to deploy; In fact they have even made this new services sound little facinating..yet true to indian Identity....They call it MTNL 3G Jadoo !!..Sounds fun..isn't it ? Lets wait for few more months to see these 3G services actually getting the whole Indian subcontinent into a converging world and hoping that the other private providers to follow the footpaths of MTNL and unleash the services next generation services from 3G pandora box.

4 yrs of Highs & Lows

Its always been a mixed feeling when we actullay think where we were in the past and how far we have come across leaving the memories behind; some friends left and madefew great pals; lost a few hairs but got an experience in return; worked really hard day/night and got definite appreciations; Well as these were few of my heartfelt insights of these 4 years of my professional life i spent here in L&T. Not the experience i had here in this firm is any different but whatever is it; its's definately special for me atleast; Been there and seen there is what i can all say :-) Cheers Friends who have being there throughtout these good and hard times and thanks to the superiors who has always been there for providing us the oppertunities. Last but not the least my family who has always been there back to back :-)

The Simple Life !

Its always been said that a man needs can never be fullfilled; he always want something more and never been a self-sufficient.This evening NGC was showing a documentry on the life of the gypsies living in the vast Himalayan terrain and the way these people lead their own life. This documentry showed the simple life of a human living in the nature and they were least bothered about the materialistic world. The life they lived is quite simple and doing what their ancestors were being done.In fact with no basic education, they people simply can't dream of a high profile job and seriuosly they don't; these people are quite happy with teh life they still live with. Now if i compare myself with teh same guy from the film; i wasn't definately so happy and self contained as that guy was. Well this feeling was something more likely felt by me when coming across such people but i guess its a pretty common with me these days...dont know whether their is something wrong with me or it...

Kissed by a devil !

Well its always been a hectic day for most of us the day we landed in Torino..The First 2 weekends went smoothly..the next all weekends were wasted in Office perimeter doing the weekend support. But few of us decided to take a break from this all and we took off one saturday to the Pub near by Art Olympic Hotel where 2 of my friends were staying... We decided to go for a Devil Kiss..the scottish delight..and after drinking 2 glassful we 3 of us were floating right into the air...i will definately gurantee that drinking devil kiss will get you hard on your conscience..and it hit me hard as well...jjust googled devil kiss and i see lots of ultimate experience of the people after having it..I will suggest you to take a SIP out of it.This is the one one should have drank before he dies..i already did it how about u ???

After spending few weeks of temporary labs, roaming in few temporay locations finally we have been allocated a final place up here on the Telematics Lab on the 4th Floor. With only 5 People in this huge lab, its kind of complete privacy....right complete privacy :-) For the time i am up here in the office we really spent quality time @ office of course working here with my Team mates.

Tight Schedule :-(

Its been around more than week and we guys up here are really stuggling had to find time to relax..even on weekends we have to be in office :-( most of the time working 13 hours a day, and by the time we reach hotel we didnt have enough energy to have a healthy dinner to cook..so we mostly rely on the MTR ready mix (thanks to Ashish), Flakes with Milk or even get to some italian restaurant and grab a quick bite..even if u get to the hotel by 10 pm or earlier, then also we had to mail back the concerned people the daily status which is again a headache especially when u get down the hotel and find out that te Net is down..this actually happened with me one saturday night and i got to hear this fact about TIM italy that when the weather is bad they usually pose theis conncetivity problem !! But thanks to deva and his Hotel connectivity i could mail the daily status report to the people on time... Well dont think that these things will change in near future for the time i am here in italy...

I call it a day !

The morning unlike every morning things went smoothly and i reached my office as planned in the normal time. It's was a busy day as i was informed that i would be flying this evening to Turin for a business trip and with no arrangements made in prior it was bit hefty for me to take such a situation to come so quick...Well i had lots of work to do.Make my plans, reserve a hotel, get a PC and do all setup prior to leave and last but not the least the Air-tickets & bulk of Euros to survive for 1 month of my stay @ Torino. Things really went as planned with getting all the necessary documents & airtickets and was ready to leave by 9:00 PM on tuesday ! I had a Economy ticket to fly first to Frankfurt and then catch a connecting flight to Turin and it came as a surprise when i was offered a Business Class for the first time in my life...Business Class..man is it gonna happen :-)WOW....The next i spotted Abhisek Bachchan in the airport lobby who was flying to London Heathrow by J...
