Even with XP you may need a cd burner software

I was quite naive when I thought XP could copy data cds without needing an external software such as a cd to cd copy.

Well the spell was broken yesterday. Somehow the xp cd copy thinks that a source CD that is less than 700mb is actually containing 715mb. So it won't copy the cd

I had to go back to an older copy of Nero and install it to actually copy this large cd

I am sure there is perfectly a good reason for this but I have no clue what it is

"deetee" in child-speak

More documents like this are at:  05.10-Letters To My Daughter

12-Jul-04

Child-speak is quite interesting. Either it is the element of surprise for an adult to decipher a parallel sound or just an evolutionary slavery that was inculcated into the brains of a parent. Narayan, 19 months, has a little bit of vocabulary now.

Not to offend the pains caused to his mother he started off with Mom. For the superstitious he woke up on Dad's day and clearly said Dad. Well a good excuse for the rest of the family not to get me anything else.

In fact before he remembered Mom or Dad, his favorite object and word is ball. He has variations on this word. While he seeks it he calls a round object a "ball". When he gets hold of it it becomes "baa-laa" with a clear glee.

The other day I was sweeping the kitchen. Then I saw this diaper clad otherwise buck naked little figure running through the kitchen start saying "deedee" with his mouch curled up into a surprise-o. I acknowledge thinking he is calling me Daddy, "deedee" being close. "I am sure there are other activities that Daddy does, and wants to be recognized other than sweeping floors" is really what is going through my mind.

Now he takes his little finger and points to the to the trash and insistently calls it this time "deetee" with a discernable frown and a left to right head shake. Well it is child-speak for "Clue-less-grown-up I mean to say Dirty".

It is quite familiar now to hear "deetee" around kitchen sinks and also in public sometimes, referring to various inanimate and animate objects at which time I translate it to "Daddy" and sport a courteous smile.

Ingredients as they turned out

2 to 3 large onions, sweeter the better
1 potato
A can of peas and carrots
half a can of tomato sauce
hot water
Oil and south indian condiments

Prepare the oil

If you know south indian cooking, you know what to do here. Otherwise, heat the oil and chenna dal until the dal is reddish. Add mustard seeds and fennel seeds (I think) and curry leaves.

Add onions

With in a few seconds add cut onions. Use more onions for sweetness and content. Let them brown

Add potato

Peel, Cut and add the potato. Fry it until it softens.

Add the can of peas

Add the can of peas after draining the water. Fry them for a 5 minutes or so

Add the tomato sauce

Add the tomato sauce and hot water. Boil on medium for 10 to 15 minutes. Add turmeric, salt and pepper.

More stuff

I suppose you can add a couple of fresh peppers for spice

Eat with

Tastes very good with long grained basmati rice. Roti would be my second choice

General introduction to server side java patterns

More documents like this are at:  OSCON-2004

Most of today's web is driven by server side programming. PHP, ColdFusion, J2EE, Asp.Net, are all frameworks that allow server side programming. To say that server side programming is multi-disciplinary is an understatement. It is more like skating on a field of spikes. The spikes are many. There are tiers to cross, there are protocols to follow, there are multiple programming languages to learn, there are sessions to deal with, there are transactions to manage, security to worry about, scalability to plan for. The goal of the server side programming practice is to deliver a smooth platform on top of these spikes so a developer may perform a programming ballet with freedom.

Server side programming practice is increasingly converging on a set of similar patterns for solving these problems. Although there are distinctions in the provided solutions, it is possible to slice the techniques into recognizable, identifiable patterns. Understanding these patterns will benefit a developer in the following ways:

  • Ease the transition between ever changing and numerous server side frameworks
  • Enhance an existing framework with the additional patterns for a much smoother ride
  • Understand the problem space of server side programming better

Most of the presented patterns here came from developing a server side declarative framework and a tool. I believe these patterns have a value of their own irrespective of the tool in which they are nurtured.

I have divided the patterns in to the following 5 catgories

  • Applicaton Patterns
  • Data Access Patterns
  • Business Logic Patterns
  • Presentation Patterns
  • http/html patterns

It is hard to find a good snack that is reasonably healthy and at the same time edible.

"Fruit & Nut Almond, raising, peanut & cranberry" snack bars from Nature valley is pretty decent.

An easy way to fill a combo box or a list box from an enum.

Credits: Paul Montgomery

To set a combo box ( or list box ) to all of the values in an enum, do the following. 


this.ComboBox1.DataSource 
   = Enum.GetNames( typeof ( YourEnum ));

Then to get it back out. 


YourEnum val 
   = (YourEnum) Enum.Parse(typeof(YourEnum)
          ,comboBox1.SelectedItem.ToString());
