Yes!!! Its victory for the terrorists in the recent Mumbai blasts (2008). As we approach the end of this year, this incident has overshadowed all the good things those happened throughout the year. One thing is for sure, Deccan Mujahideen (the group that claimed the responsibility of the attack) must be swimming in the pool of champagne after their crew successfully executed the plan.
The terror is so much now in all the parts of India that all the mega events have been either cancelled or have been postponed indefinitely. For instance, the 2 one dayers between India and England were cancelled. A Bollywood programme has been cancelled; the likes of Amitabh Bachchan and many others have withdrawn. The stock exchange of India was closed on Thursday (the day of attack) and it was reported that there was an overall loss of Rs.50000 Crores. Such is the aftermath of the terror. The tremors of this attack have affected all the people across the globe.
The home minister, Mr. Shivraj Patil was forced to resign. The opposition now wants MR. R.R. Patil (Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra) to resign. All the big shot industrialists are criticizing the political system in India.
If all this is not enough to prove to you the success of the terror attacks, then you will never be pushed away from the podium of being a number 1 fool!!!

Bloody Thursday!
What a way to start the day? All the websites were posting updates on the gun battle happening in the financial capital of India.
The news was flashing on all the channels about the several blasts those rocked Mumbai, last night. Although Mumbai is used to such blasts happening over the last couple of years but, this was really gruesome. On one side India was inching towards a one sided victory over the Englishmen and on the other hand terrorists were in the process of emerging victors.
The only difference this time was that the terrorists were looking out for non Indians. This is the time that we should unite against the countries those fuel such heinous activities. All the country officials have expressed their condolences towards the families who have lost their members. But the question still remains unanswered. How do we combat such unlawful events?
There is no way we can zero in on this front. It is nature’s simple rule that equilibrium should be maintained on our lovely planet. The fight between the good and bad has been happening for ages now. The innocent people and their families who fall prey to the natures move should consider themselves unfortunate and move ahead in life.
One thing we all need to accept; express condolences to the families who lost their members and also to the families whose members end up as terrorists.

How to copy data from one table of SQL server 2005 to the other of SQL server 2005?
There was a strange problem where in one had to keep the two SQL tables of SQL server 2005 located on two different machines of in synch with each other. Whenever there is an update in either of the tables the other table should contain the respective information.
One way to achieve this is to use triggers, but they failed in this scenario (where the two tables are located on two different machines)
This is where we thought of using the feature of ‘maintenance plan’ in SQL server 2005. In this one needs to add a task called ‘Execute T-SQL statement task’ and enter the stored procedure or a query. Whenever the data is inserted into table 1, through triggers it is inserted into the temporary table from which the query in the maintenance plan picks up and inserts the same into the other table. A similar maintenance plan needs to be created on the other SQL server 2005 which will insert into table 1. The maintenance plan runs at regular intervals.
The records affected by an insert, update and a delete statement can be obtained from inbuilt tables INSERTED and DELETED.
This approach so far may lead to recursion. In this case one will have to switch the triggers off before inserting data in the table through maintenance plan.

Is this a wake up call?
Every game has its rules and IT (information technology) industry and BPOs (Business Process Outsourcing) have the same. Hefty pay packages bring along with it lots of body problems as bonuses.
Employees in these industries are most of the times always glued to their computers, in the end inviting loads of health problems. The list becomes very long but the most prominent ones are eye irritation and backache.
One can easily get rid of these problems. The eye irritation is basically because of constant MONITORing. One needs to take a break every half an hour; this not only relaxes your eyes but also your back. Also, one needs to make sure that the eyes are washed at least thrice a day.
Backache, looking at the term our head starts aching. There is no other remedy to this problem than regular outs; need to follow a strict regime. To look healthy and to stay fit one needs to hit the gym everyday and make it a habit.
Lets follow this simple mantra for a healthy life!

Cricket in !ndia
Cricket is no less than a religion in India. Whenever a cricket match is scheduled in any corner of the globe and if India is featuring in that then, there is only one channel that will be running in every house of India. No prizes for guessing and that would be a ‘Sports Channel’. Click here for a sample demonstration of the game.
Every game in this world has produced masters of the game and cricket is no exception. The likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Sunil Gavaskar, Don Bradman… the space here is too less to cover the list of such great players. Among the above the only playing legend at the moment is Sachin. There is famous line that every person who worships the master blaster would know. ‘If cricket is religion then Sachin is God’. Here is a link to the video of Sachin’s first interview
Another cricketer following Sachin’s footsteps is Mahendra Singh Dhoni, the current India skipper. Under his reins India has been conquering feats that one had never imagined few years back. India is ranked 2nd in the international cricket test ratings after Australia. Under Dhoni’s management on the field India clinched the first T20 world cup, the Australia one dayers (in Australia) followed by a test series win against the champions in tests this year. Dhoni has been displaying a lot of potential in most of the departments of the game. He is a well established batsman, athletic wicket keeper and above all a smart thinker on the field and off the field. Dhoni, a billion people can now focus on other secondary work since BCCI (Board of Control for cricket in India) has for the first time taken an absolutely correct decision.
Dhoni, all the best and lets bubble up our position in the test rankings by ONE.

Is this economic crisis good for some people?
It feels extremely bad to witness the era of such bad economic crisis all across the globe.
How can one sustain during such difficult times? This one question is bothering every single person. One needs to take this positively and take decision as to chase his dreams. This is the right time for all of us get away with our routine work and think something different that would help ease out the problems in our lives forever.
All the blue chip companies are cutting down on the costs and hence people end up losing their jobs. It’s truly saddening that the livelihood of so many people and their families is getting affected. One needs to cope up with this.
We need to get inspired from the likes of Steve Jobs (who was fired from his own company ‘Apple’). He never quit fighting after this incident. We need to develop such killer instinct within ourselves to negotiate such problems. So let’s forget the rest and stand united to face such problems.
