Inauguration of Synergy 2008 and celebrations of 100 years of completion of St.Francis D'Assisi High School by former President Dr.APJ Abdul Kalam on 13-02-2008


My school St.Francis D'Assisi is celebrating its completion of 100 years. 'Synergy 2008' a four day mega event began on 13-02-2008 being inaugurated by the former President
Dr.APJ Abdul Kalam himself !












Synergy 2008 inauguration....











Lighting the Lamp .. beginning with auspiciousness




He has always been an inspiration, a role model for the youth like me ... his presence makes you feel safe and delighted .. his thinking is deep as the ocean .. his words are amazing ... he addressed the crowd (5000++) on a marvelous topic on 'Indomitable Spirit'. Click here to read









"KNOWLEDGE = Creativity + Righteousness + Courage + INDOMITABLE SPIRIT"

















His address was marvelous .... there was pin drop silence as in a K.G class when the ex-president spoke ... he made the students repeat many values and also recited his compositions ....the speech which he gave can be found in his Site.

My Cool PC ...... Preview .....

Well, all of us like to keep our PC appear cool and nice, and attract attention of other people ... it also affects us when we ourselves sit in front of it doing our own work .... so have a look at my PC's appearance ..... thought i would share my preferences with others ....

P.S. Make sure you have some decent amount of RAM, then don't start giving bad words if something goes wrong, after you put anything mentioned here

I've used:
Vista Transformation Pack 7 ( Windows Vista Aero )
Brico Packs Vista inspirate 2 ( Windows Vista Ultimate )
Linux Yodm 3D ( Linux )
FlyakiteOSX 3.0 ( Macintosh OSX)

This is how my desktop looks ..... carbon black theme suits the cool ferrari symbol ..


Small Preview of Icons .......


Hmm .... think again, i don't have one desktop to open many windows, not even two, but 4 desktops !!! :) cool ha ?


Manage my desktops just like a cube .... this is a far view .. and fun to rotate :)



Surfing the net

For this purpose, my browser is non other than mozilla firefox. They have a variety of add-ons to choose from to make surfing the net enjoyable .

My preferences:
theme of NASA night launch
Grease monkey
Snap shots
Foxy tunes

Theme of NASA night launch ... now waiting is not so boring :)
