Security Focus.
I was wondering how one can fight system crashes and security attacks because of getting online using windows? It was then I got this crazy idea. Microsoft has a product called virtual pc using which you can have any number of pc based operating systems on your machine. And now find a way to connect to internet only using one of the OSes installed inside the virtual pc. This implies you will not be able to access the internet on the main windows OS. This makes your data and system on the main OS safe and secure. Virtually its the same as if you are accessing the net from a secure sandbox. The whole concept should work well or atleast give a tough time to hackers. Who knows you never know something works until somebody finds a way to break this virtual barrier too.

A Bit skeptic about WiFi
Can this be true? here. I dont really understand much of whats said in there until I try that on my own. But the users are warned to be privacy and security savvy. A good to know thing.

Very good collection of Siddu's comments.
Collection of famous quotes by Navjot Singh (The Indian Cricketer)
1. That ball went so high it could have got an air hostess down with it.
2. There is light at the end of the tunnel for India , but it's that of an
incoming train which will run them over.
3. Experience is like a comb that life gives you when you are bald.
4. This quote was made after Ganguly called Dravid for a run and
midway sent him back and Dravid was run out in the third test against
the West Indies at Barbados."Ganguly has thrown a drowning man both
ends of the rope."
5. Sri Lankan score is running like an Indian taximeter.
6. Statistics are like miniskirts, they reveal more than what they hide.
7. Wickets are like wives - you never know which way they will turn!
8. He is like Indian three-wheeler, which will suck a lot of diesel but
cannot go beyond 30!
9. The Indians are going to beat the Kiwis! Let me tell you, my friend that
the Kiwi is the only bird in the whole world, which does not have wings!
10. As uncomfortable as a bum on a porcupine.
11. The ball whizzes past like a bumble -bee and the Indians are in the sea.
12. The Indians are finding the gaps like a pin a haystack.
13. The pitch is as dead as a dodo.
14. Deep Dasgupta is as confused as a child is in a topless bar!
15. The way Indian wickets are falling reminds of the cycle stand at
Rajendra Talkies in Patiala one falls and everything else falls!
16. Indian team without Sachin is like giving Kiss without a Squeeze.
17. You cannot make Omelets without breaking the eggs.
18. Deep Dasgupta is not a Wicket Keeper, he is a goalkeeper. He must be
given a free transfer to Manchester United.
19. He will fight a rattlesnake and give it the first two bites too.
20. One, who doesn't throw the dice, can never expect to score a six.
21. This quote was made after Eddie Nichols, the third umpire, ruled
Shivnarine Chanderpaul 'NOT OUT' in the second test at Port of Spain T&T.
"Eddie Nichols is a man who cannot find his own buttocks with his two hands."
22. Anybody can pilot a ship when the sea is calm.
23. Nobody travels on the road to success without a puncture or two.
24. You got to choose between tightening your belt or losing your pants.
25. The cat with gloves catches no mice.
26. Age has been perfect fire extinguisher for flaming youth.
27. You may have a heart of gold, but so does a hard-boiled egg.
28. He is like a one-legged man in a bum kicking competition.
29. The third umpires should be changed as often as nappies and for
the same reason.
30. Kumble's bowling at the moment is flat as a Dosa.
And Finally the clincher:-
This quote was made when India was losing a match and one of the
fellow commentator made the mistake of saying that things would have
been different had Tendulkar's wicket not
fallen at the wrong time.
My dear, if my aunt was a man she would have been my uncle !!!!

Theorem on Salary... Very funny
The theorem relies on the following 3 postulates:
1. Knowledge is power ie knowledge = power
2. Time is Money ie time = money
3. And every physics student knows power = Work/ Time
Here goes the theorem
Knowledge = Work / Time
and since Time = Money
Knowldege = Work/ Money
Solving for Money
Money = Work / Knowledge
So as knowledge approaches Zero Money approaches to infinity regardelss of work done...........
Conclusion : The less you know the more you make....

Lessons in Management ........ Very funny
1.) Lesson Number One
A crow was sitting on a tree, doing nothing all day. A small rabbit saw the crow, and asked him, "Can I also sit like you and do nothing all day long?" The crow answered: "Sure why not." So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the crow and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.
Management Lesson: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
2.) Lesson Number Two
A turkey was chatting with a bull. "I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree," sighed the turkey, "but I haven't got the energy. "Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?" replied the bull. " They're packed with nutrients." The turkey pecked at a lump of dung and found that it actually gave him enough strength to reach the first branch of the tree. The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fortnight there he was proudly perched at the top of the tree. Soon the turkey was spotted by a farmer, who promptly shot him out of the tree.
Management Lesson: Bullshit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.
3.) Lesson Number Three
When the body was first made, all the parts wanted to be Boss. The brain said, "I should be Boss because I control the whole body's responses and functions." The feet said, " We should be Boss as we carry the brain about and get him to where he wants to go. The hands said, "We should be the Boss because we do all the work and earn all the money. "And so it went on and on with the heart, the lungs and the eyes until finally the asshole spoke up. All the parts laughed at the idea of the asshole being the Boss. So the asshole went on strike, blocked itself up and refused to work. Within a short time the eyes became crossed, the hands clenched, the feet twitched, the heart and lungs began to panic and the brain fevered. Eventually they all decided that the asshole should be the Boss, so the motion was passed.
Management Lesson: You don't need brains to be a Boss, any asshole will do.
4.) Lesson Number Four
A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold, the bird froze and fell to the ground in a large field. While it was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on it. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, it began to realize how warm it was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him!
Management Lessons:
a) Not everyone who drops shit on you is your enemy.
b) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.
c) And when you're in deep shit, keep your mouth shut.
5.) Lesson Number Five
A man was in a hot-air balloon. Soon he found himself lost with nothing but green fields for as far as the eye could see. Eventually, he happened to float over a man who was walking his dog. He leaned over the basket and yelled out, "Hello! Where am I?" The man on the ground replied, "You're about 20 feet above the ground in a hot- air balloon." The balloonist cursed him and shouted back, "You must be a statistician." "Why do you say that?" asked the man on the ground. "Well," shouted the balloonist, "You're absolutely correct but your answer was completely useless." "Oh I see," replied the walker, "And you must be a manager." "Actually, you're right," said the balloonist. "How did you know?" "Well," said the walker, "First you were lost. Then, after working out what information you needed to sort yourself out, you asked someone else to get it for you. Now, that you have the information, you're still lost, but it's someone else's fault." Well, Was it interesting?
