Renewed to Honor

Paul Oakley's "Jesus Friend Of Sinners" was the first thing that came to my mind when I was about to start this blog. Back in Sunday-school (its like Church for Kids) we had sung this song with some modifications. The chorus of this song goes " Jesus, Jesus, Friend of Sinners; Jesus, Jesus, Friend of mine;" and we had "Talk About It" echoing in the chorus, and when I look back I feel sad that I had lost the boldness to declare that I am a Christian as much as I did when I was a child. I recently had spend some time with my young cousins who were very bold to say "Jesus" because that was all that they cared about. Many a time we are also caught in this net of social and peer pressure that we do not say about the things we love or people we care about.  Recently in India there was a huge gathering of people in the capital and smaller in the cities and even smaller in the villages who were asking the government to bring out the "Anti-Corru...

Back when I used to work at the call centre in India, (yes, we are the worlds  - 0800, 1800, 800, etc) we were advised to end every call with this mandatory statement " thank you for calling XYZ, this is Subin, I hope I had been able to assist you with the enquiry today, Have a nice day". To be truthful we found us repeating this statement so blatantly  and other times it was parrot-talk. Life really gets monotonous at a call centre especially at first enquiry points. But it was worth one year, I can now stay in a same room with my parrot.  We are so used as people helping us and we helping them that a "sorry" or a 'thank you" is spoken without any care. I remember the time when my little brother gave me a chocolate and I thanked him even without looking at him. I was so caught in the moment that I did not care for the kid who had got me a chocolate out of his own pocket money. Man ... what a shameful act right ! This is also what happened in Jesus's...

Recently my state government released this new policy as a conservative and "pain in the neck " policy, "The Rationed  Cooking Gas" . Well for some of my readers who are not in India, you see mostly every one in India prefers  LPG  over any other source of fuel for cooking. But, assuming that there is a huge depletion of natural gas cylinders per household per year. Which means, at the normal amount of 9-12$ (US) - or 300 - 350 Rs per cylinder filled with LPG of 14.1 kg, would cost double after the four cylinders. My grandmother is absolutely furious about it. She, has been cooking since her teens find it impossible to manage with this situation. If this woman who cooks only for her husband, cannot manage how would a mother of two with her family survive this "day light robbery" she asks.   Well, even i was irritated at this news. But thought i could get your comments on this. Be free to comment of what you think of this situation. My guesses are that...

A few months ago I had run some dummy tests on Firefox and Google Chrome. Thought i would rewrite some tips i found while working with Chrome and Firefox. The stuff i loved the most was the "about:" pages. Chrome's About About Page Description about:about ~ Displays the about page showing all about pages! Cool :) about:blank ~ Displays a blank page about:memory ~ Chrome about:memory This shows how many browsers are active. I have a screen shot attached. about:tab ~ Displays a blank tab -ed page about:stats ~ Stats as of last page load about:plugins ~ You guessed it, It tell you if you got a flash player about:credits ~ Displays the credits page. This is something you would not find in IE about:dns ~ Displays more than just DNS. It tells how long you were on each page, and if you were forwarded by an ad to another about:stats ~ Stats as of last page load about:flash ~ Stats of flash players and latest crashes :( about:terms ~ The Goog...

This week i had another experience like that i wrote in " if an order exists  " a few months ago. The said blog was when I had met a friend who did not show any enthusiasm in studies at first, and i tried like to understand him by comparing him to known silent kids. But that was a big mistake and once I had understood that, I realized that there was more to kids than that meet the eye. Now, this blog is where i had another experience with this kind.  Now this kid is another cousin of mine. He was kinda slow around the age of 3-6 years and more overly had some trouble learning in the first few years of his life. But I do not think he was autistic. Now, well like many of you in developed and developing countries especially India, where education is strict, forced on children in kilos and often spoon-fed. That is another story that needs to addressed more strictly, but here in this story the kid is lets say slow or was in the first few years.  Now he is around 9 or ...

"Little Hearts" as you see on the right hand side is a Facebook page of a new thing that i plan to start. Now i have no idea on the physical implementations, but i am planning to push this online as much as possible. Little hearts is a place for innovations and talents to rise. How is this different from all the other talent promoters??? Well, for the first case, Little Hearts will never call some one under talented or "No Specific Talent". The others are this would be mostly based to children who are less privileged to express themselves online. There would not be restriction of age or partiality given by the organisation , but will strive to make every one feel equal. Now since there is no age bar, it means my grand mother and my grand dad can be members and exhibit their talent. So....When is it starting ??? Soon, what i am doing now is collecting enough data so that by the time the blog comes out, there would be a good attraction and of course in time i w...
