Pain & Happiness...
Pain is when
you have wings to fly,
you see the path green ahead,
But cannot reach beyond the limiting glass...
Just let it fly out of the window :-) Now that's Happiness!

Indian Independence day @ Stuttgart
It was interesting to celebrate Indian Independence day in a different country.
The event had an entry fee of 2E, (as I wore a traditional Indian kurta, otherwise 3E) We were made to sit in as a group each representing states, Me and couple of my friends here sat in Meghalaya since we couldn't find TamilNadu state there.
They started with German Anthem as a customary and the chief guest Mrs.Kavita Gadgil, chairperson of Abhijit Air Safety Foundation had hoisted the Indian Tricolor flag, we all sang Indian National Anthem, It felt so nice to sing this Anthem, bringing back nostalgic feeling of India. Some chocolates, small cup cakes were distributed.
There were more discussions, presentations on freedom fight and some demo on bollywood dancing, for which I didn't stay back.. It was a different event to meet up with more Indian and German people in Stuttgart.
Some pics...
The Tricolor hoisted and president Smt.Pratibha Patil's Address to Nation read out there...
Replica of Indian flag unfurled by Madam Bhikaji Cama 100 yrs ago in Stuttgart, at the International Socialist Conference 1907 and the chief guest behind.
Some Indian Crowd.

Salutes to Aruna Sairam!
Aruna Sairam is one of my favorite carnatic singers and the best song I like her sing is Kalinga Narthana Tillana. But today I watched this youtube video,
This Tamil folk song called "Maadu Meikum Kanna", is a variety called "Kavadi Chindhu" in Carnatic Music. The song represents a conversation between Yasodha, Mother of Lord Krishna and the Little Lord Krishna.
It beautifully explains all pleadings of lord Krishna to go out and play with cows and how his mom stops him, telling that she would give him milk, butter and sugar to eat, and how sunny it is outside. She also tells him, how there might be robbers outside and wild animals on the banks of River Yamuna. She finally asks him what to say if his Papa Nandha Gopal asks for him and Krishna says, please tell him I am playing a game of ball with friends and how he can fight the robbers and hunt the wild animals for her earlier descriptions. She says No to his pleads and the song ends with him still pleading and not yielding... It brings such a beautiful drama to your imagination.
What I observed today in the Video is the spontaneity of Aruna Sairam. Her expressions in the video are just amazing to watch and the song pours out from her heart. Her laughter for the funny fiddle note is so musical and blends into the tune. The best part is when there is a loud sound that comes in the microphone or from somewhere in the auditorium and she had just sang the line, Krishna telling his mom to tell his dad that he is playing a game of ball with his friends... Aruna Sairam wittily comments for the sound that it seems the ball has hit here. Such presence of time and quick comment is a great skill for a performer. I admire her presence of mind as much as her singing!

A pic for Fiddle n Doodle...

What's after web site making? PROMO ???
Yes - Promos!!! no use to have an awesome site if it doesn't reach the desired audience. Every new website creator's major worry is promoting it.
There are 12 to 101 ways to promote websites, with or without cost when you google at it. The best practical list I read is at
http://www.robertoalamos.com/30-ways-to-promote-your-web-application-with-little-or-no-money - A nice blogger with great views!
Also a good read on non-tech guide to web application creation by the same blogger at - http://www.robertoalamos.com/so-do-you-want-to-make-money-with-a-web-application-a-non-technical-guide-to-web-applications-creation
The day one, one conceptualizes the idea of a website, one should start thinking on ways to promote it. To Sell isn't easy definitely. As they say, "No Sales, No job", in the web world- "No Promos, No Existence"

Psycho Analysis, Defense Mechanisms and a blog..
Sometimes I think - Damn, Why do I do certain things...
Everyone seems to have two choices as per evolution to face anything - fight or flight, As for me, I fight when I like, I flee when I hate.
While wondering on that and more on 'fleeing' as a way to defend oneself, I wikied out ways of Defensive Mechanisms at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Defense_mechanisms
I had been introspecting as what I did when comparing with the article and recollecting incidents, more like seeing through a design pattern guide and recollecting lines of code previously written...
The levels by George Vaillant mentioned in the page is very interesting to note:
Level I - psychotic defences (ie. psychotic denial, delusional projection)
Level II - immature defences (ie. fantasy, projection, passive aggression, acting out)
Level III - neurotic defences (ie. intellectualization, reaction formation, dissociation, displacement, repression)
Level IV - mature defences (ie. humor, sublimation, suppression, altruism, anticipation)
I feel that the way one defends themselves can show how mature they are and while observing myself, I think I had done things from all levels at all times, matured as well as immatured acts.. thats a funny insight!
Mind Analysis and looking things in a scientific way, explaning hormones, enzymes and our super_power_brain acts for all causes of actions makes you feel generally good that you can blame it all on the molecules.
Interstingly, I also find people on 43 things - who wants to 'stop hating', seems a positive thing - http://www.43things.com/things/view/146906
There are things that people do and do...
and 'whys' unexplained many times with all the scientific explanations/ empirical observations from evolutions identified.

Subject: Regarding Phone in App ###.
Dear Mr.XYZ,
I live in Appt ###. We have a problem with our telephone. We are NOT able to make any calls inside the apartment (i.e. we are not able call any other room numbers) and even people in the apartment are not able to call our room. we know this - we can't change the technic ! But we are able to make phone call outside the apartment (0 dial). Would it be possible for you to look into this sorry, no solution possible
Have a nice day
Regards,
us
Note: Name and Email Id info are changed here obviously.
But what we really appreciate is atleast we got the reply. Wonder if they reply mails like this including their comments on the same mail we write, for avoiding using long English sentences. We are also thankful in a way that problem is only with calling inside the apartment and we are able to call our folks back home. Our neighbours have to knock our doors now to speak to us.
