Project Manager Storyy..................


The local bar was so sure that its bartender was the strongest man around that they offered a Rs 10,000 bet. The bartender would squeeze a lemon until all the juice ran into a glass, and hand  the lemon to a patron. Anyone who could squeeze one more drop of juice out would win the money. Many  people like weight-lifters, wrestlers, body builders, etc had tried over time, but nobody could do it.

One day this scrawny little man came in, wearing thick glasses and a safari suit, and said in a  tiny, squeaky voice, "I'd like to try the bet." After the laughter had died down, the bartender said OK, grabbed a lemon, and squeezed away. Then he handed the wrinkled remains of the rind to the little man.

But the ! crowd's laughter turned to total silence as the man clenched his fist around the lemon and 5-6 drops fell into the glass. As the crowd cheered, the bartender paid the Rs 10,000, and
asked the little man, 
 
"What do you do for a living?

Are you a lumberjack, a weight-lifter, or what?"

"No," replied the man.

"I work as a project manager in a software company !! "



Computers in Heaven.....

A man checked into a hotel.There was a computer in his room, so he decided to send an e-mail to his wife. However, he accidentally typed a wrong e-mail address, and without realizing his error, he sent the e-mail.

Meanwhile....Somewhere in Houston, a widow had just returned from her husband's funeral. The widow decided to check her e-mail, expecting condolence messages from relatives and friends.

After reading the 1st message, she fainted. The widow's son rushed into the room found his mother on the floor and saw the computer screen which read:

To:
My Loving Wife
Subject: I've reached
Date: January 31, 2008

I know you're surprised to hear from me. They have computers here; we are allowed to send e-mails to loved ones.

I've just reached and have been checked in. I see that everything has been prepared for your arrival tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing you
TOMORROW !

Yours
Loving Hubby..

Perfect Employee ?@#!@$#!

Bob Smith, my assistant programmer, can always be found

hard at work at his desk. He works independently, without
wasting company time talking to colleagues. Bob never

thinks twice about assisting fellow employees, and always

finishes given assignments on time. Often he takes extended

measures to complete his work, sometimes skipping coffee

breaks. Bob is a dedicated individual who has absolutely no

vanity in spite of his high accomplishments and profound

knowledge in his field. I firmly believe that Bob can be

classed as an asset employee, the type which cannot be

dispensed with. Consequently, I recommend that Bob be

promoted to executive management, and a proposal will be

executed as soon as possible.

Note :

That idiot was standing over my shoulder while I wrote the report sent to you earlier today. Kindly re-read only the odd numbered lines.

New CEO

A company, feeling it was time for a shakeup, hires a new CEO. This new boss is determined to rid the company of all slackers. This guy is really going to show that he was a good investment by the company.
 

One day, on a tour of the facilities, the CEO notices a guy leaning on a wall. The room is full of workers and he wants to let them know he means business!

The CEO walks up to the guy and asks, "And how much money do you make a week?"

A little surprised, the young fellow looks at him and replies, "I make $300.00 a week. Why?"

The CEO then hands the guy $1,200 in cash and screams, "Here's four weeks pay, now GET OUT and don't come back!"

Feeling pretty good about his first firing, the CEO looks around the room and asks, "Does anyone want to tell me what that goof-off did here?"

With a sheepish grin, one of the other workers mutters, "Pizza delivery guy from Domino's."

You & Your BOSS

When you take a long time, you're slow.
When your boss takes a long time, he's thorough.

When you don't do it, you're lazy.
When your boss doesn't do it, he's too busy.

When you make a mistake, you're an idiot.
When your boss makes a mistake, he's only human.

When doing something without being told, you're overstepping your authority.
When your boss does the same thing, that's initiative.

When you take a stand, you're being bull-headed.
When your boss does it, he's being firm.

When you overlooked a rule of etiquette, you're being rude.
When your boss skips a few rules, he's being original.

When you please your boss, you're apple polishing.
When your boss pleases his boss, he's being co-operative.

When you're out of the office, you're wandering around.
When your boss is out of the office, he's on business.

When you're on a day off sick, you're always sick.
When your boss is a day off sick, he must be very ill.

When you apply for leave, you must be going for an interview.
When your boss applies for leave, it's because he's overworked.

Never be Late....

Priest's Retirement Dinner

A Priest was being honoured at his retirement dinner after 25 years in the parish. A leading local politician and member of the congregation was chosen to make the presentation and to give a little speech at the dinner.

However, he was delayed, so the Priest decided to say his own few words while they waited:
'I got my first impression of the parish from the first confession I heard here. I thought I had been assigned to a terrible place. The very first person who entered my confessional told me he had stolen a television set and, when questioned by the police, was able to lie his way out of it. He had stolen money from his parents, embezzled from his employer, had an affair with his boss's wife, taken illegal drugs, and sold his sister's jewellery to buy a gun. I was appalled.
But as the days went on I learned that my people were not all like that and I had, indeed, come to a fine parish full of good and loving people.'....

Just as the Priest finished his talk, the politician arrived full of apologies at being late. He immediately began to make the presentation and gave his talk:

'I'll never forget the first day our parish Priest arrived,' said the politician. 'In fact, I had the honour of being the first person to go to him for confession.'


Moral : Never, Never, Never Be Late

Friday Joke - Mr. Clinton

This is a true story from the Japanese Embassy in US.

A few years ago, Prime Minister Mori was given some Basic English conversation training before he visits Washington and meets president Bill Clinton. The instructor told Mori "Prime Minister, when you shake hand with President Clinton, please say 'how are you'.

Then Mr. Clinton should say, "I am fine, and you?" Now you should say 'me too'. Afterwards we, translators, will do all the work for you." It looks quite simple, but the truth is.... When Mori met Clinton , he mistakenly said "Who Are You?" Mr. Clinton was a bit shocked but still managed to react with humor: "Well, I am Hilary's husband, ha-ha...." Then Mori replied confidently "Me too, ha ha ha."
Then there was a long silence in the meeting room, nobody knew what to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unblock Orkut, Facebook , Youtube @ Work . Now @ Browser


TOR  - Turn on anonymity.

The Onion Router (Tor) is a free software implementation of second-generation onion routing – a system which claims to enable its users to communicate anonymously on the Internet. Roger Dingledine, Nick Mathewson, and Paul Syverson presented "Tor: The Second-Generation Onion Router" at the 13th USENIX Security Symposium.

A user of the Tor network runs a proxy server on his computer. Internet-facing software can then access Tor through a SOCKS interface. Once inside a Tor network, the traffic is sent from router to router, the Tor software periodically negotiating a virtual circuit through the Tor network, ultimately reaching an exit node at which point the clear text packet is forwarded on to its original destination. Viewed from the destination, the traffic appears to originate at the Tor exit node. Tor employs cryptography in a multi-layered manner (hence the Onion routing analogy), ensuring perfect forward secrecy between routers.

Tor cannot and does not try to protect against monitoring of traffic at the edge of the Tor network, i.e., the traffic entering and exiting the network. The United States government, for example, has the capability to monitor any broadband Internet traffic using devices mandated by the Communications Assistance For Law Enforcement Act (CALEA) and can therefore monitor both ends of a US-based Tor connection. Tor tries to protect against traffic analysis, but Tor does not have the ability to prevent traffic confirmation (also called end-to-end correlation).

By using the above TOR, we can browse the internet anonymously, i.e. Our browser request to any website is not known to anyone. So that we can browse any website, especially orkut, face book, youtube, etc. without any identification in office, schools, etc. i.e. We can unblock any website. To make it work on our browser,

Follow the steps given below,

1.     Download X- Tor from here.

2.     Open Firefox, and click on Tools à Add-ons.

3.     In Get Add-ons, select Get Add-ons and type “torbutton” in Search Box.

4.     Install that add-on & Restart Firefox.

5.     Click on  TorButton icon @ left bottom corner of firefox, and make it enabled.

6.     Run X- Tor and Browse anonymously.

This above trick works on almost all content filtering services….

Friday Joke - Don't Miss....


Dear Tech Support,
Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a distinct slow down in overall system performance -- particularly in the flower and jewellery applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0.

In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs, such as Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5 and then installed undesirable programs such as Soccer 5.0, The Ashes 3.0, and Golf Clubs 4.1. Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and House cleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system. A friend suggested that I run Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems, but it hasn't worked. What can I do?

Signed,
Desperate.

.....................................................................

Here is the Reply from TechSupport

Dear Desperate:
First keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, while Husband 1.0 is an Operating System. Please enter the command: 'http: I Thought You Loved Me.html' and try to download Tears 6.2 and install the Guilt 3.0 update. If that application works as designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications Jewellery 2.0 and Flowers 3.5. But remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0 to default to Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0 or Beer 6.1. Beer 6.1 is a very bad program that will download the Snoring Loudly Beta.

Whatever you do, DO NOT install Mother-in-law 1.0 (it runs a virus in the background that will eventually seize control of all your system resources).

Also, do not attempt to reinstall the Boyfriend 5.0 or worse still 6.0, program. These are unsupported applications which will lead to serious systems conflicts.

In summary, Husband1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You might consider buying additional software to improve memory and performance. We recommend Food 3.0 and Hot Lingerie 7.7.

Good Luck,

Tech Support



Why Developers Say, “It Works On My System” : Src: www.thoughtclusters.com

Because it is not as bad as saying, “Don’t blame me for it.
It works on my computer” is one of those things that reminds me of how pedestrians behave as drivers and vice versa. The pedestrian feels that the driver should be careful and drive safely, but the same person, as a driver, hates all the jaywalking pedestrians. All programmers, at some point in time, have replied to a bug stating it works on their system, but it drives their team leaders (once programmers themselves) crazy when they hear them.
To the manager, this statement sounds insane. He thinks, “Why does it matter whether it works on your system? We are not talking about your system. We are talking about a customer who is unable to do their work because the application doesn’t work as it is supposed to? Why are you being so callous?
The developer, simultaneously, thinks, “There shouldn’t be any problem with the application. After all, I tested it a million different ways. It passed testing and we didn’t have any problems so far. Maybe the person at the customer site is using an unsupported environment. Maybe they are missing a necessary component or turned off something for security reasons.
The developer remembers the several times in the past when he had to deal with a supposedly huge problem in the application and then found out that the user did not have the network cable plugged in (yes, Google too stopped working!). Or that some IT wise guy decided to turn off JavaScript (all those nasty XSS exploits). Or even when the customer was specifically told not to use anything less than Windows XP, and they decided anyway to run the application on a Windows 98 box (it happened to be lying around).
Maybe this time, it is different, but probably not.
Yes, the developer knows it is not his fault. But saying that makes the developer sound too defensive. Better to use an actual fact, i.e., the application has been known to work. It is not a problem with the code he wrote. Inside, the developer also knows that he will have to fix the problem despite this statement. But he wants to win this mini-battle to maintain his credentials.
So, manager, when you hear a developer say, “It works on my system“, don’t burst into flames. Just say without any sarcasm, “OK, it is good to know that the application is working here. [significant pause] Now, can you call the customer and get it working on their system?

Always allow Boss to speak first........ - A Story.



A junior manager, a senior manager and their boss
are on their way to a meeting.
On their way through a park, they come across a wonder lamp. They rub the lamp and a ghost appears.

The ghost says,
"Normally, one is granted three wishes but as you are three,
I will allow one wish each"

So the eager senior manager shouted,
"I want the first wish. I want to be in the Bahamas, on a fast boat and have no worries."
Pufffff. and he was gone.
Now the junior manager could not keep quiet and shouted "I want to be In Florida with beautiful girls, plenty of food and cocktails." Pufffff. and he was also gone.

The boss calmly said,
"I want these two idiots back in the office after lunch at 12.35pm."



MORAL OF THE STORY IS:
"ALWAYS ALLOW THE BOSS TO SPEAK FIRST"

The spokeswoman added that the program will be made available Tuesday morning, Pacific time, although she did not have a specific hour for the launch.
Earlier in the day, Network World's John Fontana had been told by Bob Muglia, the president of Microsoft's sever and tools division, that the company would ship the free software Tuesday.

Security Essentials, which Microsoft offered to a limited number of beta testers last June, is the company's replacement for Windows Live OneCare, a for-a-fee security suite that was retired at the end of June 2009. Microsoft has pitched the software as a basic anti-virus, anti-spyware program that consumes less memory and disk space than commercial security suites, like those from vendors such as McAfee, Symantec and Trend Micro.
Those companies, however, unanimously dismissed Security Essentials -- once codenamed "Morro" -- as proof that Microsoft couldn't compete in the paying market.
According to one researcher today, those security vendors have little to fear from Microsoft's giveaway. "It won't be the application that puts Symantec or McAfee out of business," said Andrew Storms, the director of security operations at nCircle Network Security. "...Microsoft still has to prove itself in this arena. Take, for example, Windows Defender, which has been free. It's not necessarily the best anti-spyware product available."
Storms also wondered how Microsoft's re-entry into the consumer security space would affect the relationships it's built with antivirus vendors, including those that involve the sharing of threat intelligence. "We've come to learn that Symantec and others have shared their threats and risk information with Microsoft in an effort to better protect all consumers. If Microsoft starts dipping into the market share of these partners, will it affect that intelligence sharing?
The free Security Essentials will be available for Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 as a 4.7MB download from the Microsoft Web site.

Cinelerra - Open Source Video Editing

Cinelerra is a highly advanced and professional video editing, but still remains open source. Cinelerra solves three main tasks: capturing, editing and compositing. There is virtually no limit to the video resolution so whether its standard or high definition (hd) doesn't really matter in Cinelerra. And when it comes to exporting it supports H.264, which most likely is going to be the predominant format for hd video.

By utilizing OpenGL and compatible graphic cards Cinelerra is able to preview your edited video in real-time - no rendering required. This makes editing a much more simple and intuitive task - giving you full creativity. Video effects can also be added and Cinelerra comes with all of the standard effect plus a few extras - this includes both audio and video effects.

And finally when you have to render your final movie - you can setup a renderfarm of cheap workstations to do the job for you. A renderfarm is a low cost way to get a whole lot of cpu power to quickly solve you problems and finish your jobs.

Please not that Cinelerra is currently only offered as source code - so you need a certain degree of Linux experience to get it running. Also note that even though Cinelerra is open source the main site does not offer community based development. However, the creators of Cinelerra recommends that people visit Cinelerra-CV, which is a community of people working together to improve Cinelerra.

Before getting started with the application, it is important for you to learn a little about Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP). According to www.xmpp.org
The Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) is an open technology for real-time communication, which powers a wide range of applications including instant messaging, presence, multi-party chat, voice and video calls, collaboration, lightweight middleware, content syndication, and generalized routing of XML data.
You can learn more about XMPP at www.xmpp.org. Google Talk services is built on XMPP protocol. This allows us to build clients which can connect to Google Talk.
There are lots of XMPP libraries available for .NET. I am going to use agsXMPP .NET library. You can download the free library from its home page. http://www.ag-software.de/index.php?page=agsxmpp-sdk

How to make your password safe

A strong password is an important part of guarding personal information accessible from the Web. Coming up with a password that is both memorable and strong is not always easy, though.

However, you can insure your password and data by following these easy-to-follow tips and also top 10 worst passwords. 


Think sentence  

One way to generate a safe password is to think up a sentence. Take the first letters from each of the words in the sentence and you'll generally have a new password that is neither easy to guess nor is found in the dictionary, say experts. Those two factors make the password harder to crack.

Add numbers  
The passwords can be strengthened even further by adding numbers into the mix. Or even type an entire short sentence, typos and numbers included.

Studies by the experts have shown that roughly 80 per cent of internet users fail to take these steps and instead use terms that are simple to crack by guessing or using technological tools. 

Avoid sequences 
Avoid sequential passwords or using passwords derived from the use of adjacent letters on your keyboard; this will not make your password secure. Also, avoid using only look-alike substitutions of numbers or symbols.

Top 10 worst passwords   
'123456' is the most common password used by people on the Internet. Obscenities, names of fast cars and even ncc1701 -- the ship number for Star Trek's Starship Enterprise, have made it to the list of top 500 worst passwords of all time.

Compiled by Whatsmypass.com, the list features passwords most commonly used by Internet users. And topping the list of the most common password is 123456, followed by "password" in second place. Other popular password choices were first names, repeated letters and numbers, pop-culture references.

Even batman, bond007 and cocacola also make it to the list.
