There were many issues when I was installing the drupalorg_testing installation profile . 1. "sudo apt-get install drush" on ubuntu 10.04 results in an install that does not support drush make 2. So I went on and downloaded the quickstart virtual box image that is pre-configured for drupal development and has drush + drush make installed 3. Still the commands at http://drupal.org/project/drupalorg_testing didn't work 4. So I manually downloaded the installation profile from http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/drupalorg_testing-6.x-2.x-dev.zip 5. download and extract in /var/www 6. cd /var/www/ projects[] = drupal organic groups

Many a times I have felt, and most of you might also have felt, what would you do if things went the way you want. Sadly, we cannot get the world run the way we wish, but we can definitely put all those sweet and crazy thoughts in words. So here I present, "When I will be king" series in which I will post all those fetishes I would accomplish when I will be king . The original idea comes from a very geeky blog that I read sometime during November last year and thought of having something similar on my blog as well. It happened to be my New Year Resolution. Two months passed and I hardly got time to log into the blog. Better late than never. Right? So here I go. Opening Post ( from that same geeky blog. ) When I will be king I resolve to end New Years resolutions. Every year, we're supposed to make resolutions for New Years. Things we want to accomplish. Personal Goals. New healthy habits. Things to strive for. You know what resolutions are? They're a setup...

One big problem that Linux users (especially at AIT) face is that the graphics.h does not work here. So for Computer Graphics assignments, they have turn on the windows machine. SDL or libgraph are good alternatives but change, is what scares them. So here is another method that does not involve the use of any other library of any alien software. I have used plain old dosbox to run TC in linux! Pre-requisite ; 1. Turbo C is installed in the windows partition. 2. The windows partition is mounted. (by this I mean just open the windows partition in linux. To check whether it is mounted or not, go to "/media" and see if it has you windows partition with some weird alphanumeric foldername. mine is 189C681A9C67F124) Step 1 : Download and install "dosbox" on your linux system http://www.dosbox.com/ Ubuntu users type : $ sudo apt-get install dosbox   Step 2 : Let us assume that you have already installed turbo C in your windows system and it is located at C:\TC...

In today's world of email, sms and facebook when somebody says they could not keep in contact because they had been busy, I feel like kicking them on their butt and say "Busy is BullShit". It so happened that yesterday one of my school friends rang me up. After talking for like half an hour, when I was all exhausted of all the stories that I could possible narrate, I happened to ask, "why did you not keep in contact?" The answer came as "College had been keeping me busy". Now all I know for a fact is that, we all do what we want to do. We all have time for what we are committed to. Take harish and laxman as an example. They are professional Counter Strike players, so even though they have exams, they do not stop sparing an hour for their regular game. I won't appreciate this habit, but I respect their passion for the game. They take out time for what they want to do. They do not start cribbing on how difficult the subject is, and how m...

An old blackbird found a piece of bread and flew off with it. When they saw this, the younger birds pursued him in order to attack. Confronted by imminent battle, the blackbird dropped the piece of bread into the mouth of a snake, thinking to himself: ‘When you’re old, you see things differently. I lost a meal, it’s true, but I can always find another piece of bread tomorrow.“However, if I had hung on to it, I would have started a war in the skies; the winner would become the object of envy, the others would gang up on him, hatred would fill the hearts of birds and it could all go on for years. “That is the wisdom of old age: knowing how to exchange immediate victories for lasting conquests.’

Read this poem in some blog and it was precisely what was going through my mind then. Read through and enjoy! I Wouldn't Try To Be So Perfect ! -------------------------------------- If I had my life to live over again, I'd try to make more mistakes next time I wouldn't try to be so perfect. We all have perfection fetishes, what difference does it make,if you let people know you are imperfect? They can identify with you then. Nobody can identify with pefection. I would relax more,I'd be sillier then than I've been on this trip. Infact, I know very few things that I would take so seriously. I'd be crazier,I'd be less hygienic,I'd take more chances. I'd climb more mountains,I'd watch more sunsets. I'd go more places I've never seen. I'd eat more ice-creams and fewer beans. I'd have more actual troubles and fewer imaginary ones. You see,I was one of those people who lived sensibly and sanely hour after hour and...

2004: I will get my weight down below 70. 2005: I will follow my new diet religiously until I get below 80. 2006: I will stop eating samosa, pakoda, parantha and sugar. 2007: I will go the gym five times a week. 2008: I will work out three times a week. 2009: I will take my resolutions seriously. 2010: 2010 will be the year I moderate my eating and work out regularly. 2011: I will make a dead serious new year resolution.

यू तो फूल भी काफी हैं दर्द जगाने को, जख्मी हो मेरा दिल खार से ही, ये ज़रूरी तो नहीं ! ऐसा नहीं की गम मुझे होता नहीं, मुफलिसी में रोता रहूँ, ये भी ज़रूरी तो नहीं ! करने लगूंगा फिर से तुम्हारा ऐतबार दोस्तों ज़ख्म ताज़े हैं अभी, भरोसा अभी होता तो नहीं ! मंजिल तू इंतज़ार कर कि मैं आऊंगा ज़रूर मैं बस हारा हूँ रास्तों से... मगर लौटा तो नहीं ! मैं बस हारा हूँ रास्तों से... मगर लौटा तो नहीं !

A near and dear, to love and to hear, to listen and to tell, what's heaven and what's hell. To talk and to fight, on the wrong and the right, to understand and the absurd, something that's never heard. to shout and to laugh, to cut the sorrow into half, to stare and to share, and scare the nightmare. To improve and to expand, with someone who could understand, to grow and to desire, to aspire to move higher. To encourage and applaud, and increase the belief in God, to soothe and to smile, hand-in-hand walk-in mile, to dimple and to smile, and cross even exile. To think and to create, together our own fate, in the hot and the cold, the bonds that will hold, will save us from the sin, in the thick and the thin, showing my everlasting love to whom cries and tears never come, I NEED ONLY SUCH A COMPANION.

एक बार मेरी नज़रों ने से पूछा, की तुम क्यों उन्हें देखकर नज़रें हटा लेते हो,  की जिसे तुम हर वक़्त सोचा करते हो  क्यों उस से मिलकर भी अनजान बने रहते हो? मैंने जवाब कुछ यूं दिया... "मै डरता हूँ की कहीं उनकी आँखों में देखूंगा तो सब कुछ भूल बैठूँगा, उनसे अगर मिल गया तो उनमे खो जाऊंगा, वो जब मुझसे अलग होंगे, तो मै खुद से रूठ बैठूँगा इसलिए,मै चुप हूँ की न हमारी बात हो, और जो हो भी जाए बात, तो फिर न मुलाकात हो"!
