US Senator criticized Infosys as "chop shop".  It is not only affected to Infosys, but all Indian born companies, who are working in US.  When US started suffering they are started blaming to Indians.  He said all high paid jobs are outsourced to India with lower wages.  So, the lazy US people are not getting jobs.  There is new reason.   First blaming starts by George Bush.  He was saying "Indians are consuming more  foods".  Second blaming was by Barak Obama.  In his statement it was "Indians buying more vehicle, so the fuel price going high".  The actual stealing work starts by Americans.  Brilliant Indians create some good things, technologies etc, they took patent over it and steal.  The very best example is "hotmail".  Though they bought over it, the brain behind it was a great Indian.  Why did they bought over it?  Why can't they create same kind instead of bought over?  They even stole the...

Japanese car maker Nissan launched their concept car with alcohol detection system in mid of 2007.  It uses breathalyzer-like detection systems may provide even greater traction for Japanese efforts to keep impaired drivers off the road.  Nissan's alcohol-detection sensors check odor, sweat and driver awareness, issuing a voice alert from the navigation system and locking up the ignition if necessary.  Odor sensors on the driver and passenger seats read alcohol levels, while a detector in the gear-shift knob measures the perspiration of the driver's palm when starting the car.  But Nissan's car includes a mounted camera that monitors alertness by eye scan, ringing bells and issuing a voice message in Japanese or English if a driver should pull over and rest.  For more details, visit their official page .

There are 30 over news papers and tabloids in this country.  However, if you look at their everyday content, most filled with sexual contents.  I have been asked myself several times, why this medias are exposing these contents than any other?  There have been a lot more than this to discuss.  Most Malaysians uses own vehicle to travel.  Though the petrol price is less than one liter mineral water, the parking charges are too high.  Why there is no investigative journalism to find out the source and bring the matter to world to prevent these?  One true fact in this country is, Media cannot write anything against the ruling party / government.  So, the media is criticized here.  Last couple of weeks, "most viewed" content of some major local medias are about sex.  One among the top was the sexual activities of teenagers.  Some times, it will be the matter of some family like wife's/husband's secret affair, or wife revenge on hubby's ...

I have had a conversation with an elderly couple, recently.  When the subject leads to relationship and family, they told me about their story.  In fact, it might be the present story running most places.  To spend time with their one and only grand son, who is an year old, their grand daughter set up time.  Those specific times, if they wish, can go and spend but not more or less.  It was like a business meet, she instructs her in-laws, to come and meet.  I was in a thought for a while.  Then suddenly another couple said, now in-laws are putting up things like business.  Even some considers their marriage is like a business tie-up.  The fast moving world is now putting up everything as business and the value of family is becoming negligible.  If you think of it, to meet their own grand son setting up time, what is it all about saying?  There have been many kind of business running in this world.  Apart from all of those, wha...

I happened to be an eye witness of an accident followed by its death yesterday, while I was on my way to office.  It was haunting me for long hours.  The victim was not a human being but a small kitten. But it was alerting me all the way until the world cup soccer fever.  But it was following me again, when I was passing through the same place in the morning.  It seems somebody was scratching me again and again.   I was heading to catch my bus to office yesterday night.  At a narrow road, I was feeling somebody following me silently and turned back and found a Lexus SUV was just behind.  Given up my way to it and was heading again.  But some how I just look back my way and found a kitten was fighting with death.  It's head was broken and right eye came out.  One of its front leg too was broken.  It was an heart-breaking scene.  I don't know what should I do on this; I couldn't.  Walkig forward while looking back on that sc...

Another week of testing with the best Linux IM client "Pidgin".  I could configure the Office communicator, Yahoo, MSN and gtalk.  The best feature I can see in this, all chat windows can be accommodate with tabbed option in a single window.  This is very good feature and this was the one, I was searching for a long time, when Jabber ( I was using Pandion client ) was switched to Office Communicator at my office.  I think, I seen this tabbing option only in Pidgin version 2.7.1 onwards.  Here, I tested 2 versions of Pidgin. Pidgin 2.6.6 My Ubuntu Lucid kernel is "2.6.32-22-generic" . This version of Pidgin comes by default with Ubuntu Lucid.  What I had to do is, install the 3 dependencies.  Install the following with the order it mentioned. 1. libmp3lame0 2. gstreamer0.10-plugins-multiverse 3. gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg 4. pidgin-PPA packages After these 4 items installed, I had tried to restart the services of pidgin, but was not successful.  So...
