LokPal Bill - heroes and villains!

These are the list of members who are/were involved in the happening of bill that the whole nation voted IN but ironically the same nation who voted these members in(so says the record) were hell bend on rejecting the bill. Hence proving that this kind of civilization got to go. The shabha(rajya/lok or whatever) need to go and something that works for the development of the nation need to be devised. For that to happen the ones occupying the seats in the shabha with their self vested interest who are working in a way that makes it an independent body and their relentless hunger for power need to go. The list was taken from avaaz.org

vote for the heroes and villains!

Vote for your top Lokpal villain - from this list of 10: Pranab Mukherji - Congress MP
This Congress troubleshooter met Rajya Sabha Chairman Hamid Ansari and requested him not to allow the proceedings to continue beyond midnight.

Mulayam Singh Yadav - Samjwadi Party Chief
He walked out of Lok Sabha along with his 28 MPs claiming there were too few votes to pass the bill.

Rahul Gandhi - Congress Secretary
Consistently downplaying the benefits of a strong Lokpal, he blamed opposition parties last week for refusing to get behind Lok Sabha’s weak version of the bill.

Sonia Gandhi - Congress Chair
Conspicuously absent in the recent Lokpal debates, she has disappointed many by not proactively supporting the Lokpal bill and setting the wrong tone for her party.

Lalu Prasad Yadav - RJD President
He pushed for minority quotas in the Lokpal and diluted the bill negotiations in both houses.


Abhishek Manu Singhvi - Lokpal Standing Committee Chairman
He took three months to draft a toothless Lokpal bill.

Rajniti Prasad - RJD MP
Acting on the orders of his leader Lalu Prasad Yadav, he tore the Lokpal bill in the Rajya Sabha, and the ensuing ruckus delayed and destabilised the proceedings for a considerable amount of time.

Kapil Sibal - Congress MP:
A staunch opponent of a strong Lokpal bill from the start, he abruptly disrupted the Rajya Sabha proceedings and declared the end of the winter session before Lokpal could come to a vote.

Hamid Ansari - Rajya Sabha Chair
He failed to put the bill to vote and instead decided to listened to the demands of the ruling party to adjourn it indefinitely.

Ram Vilas Paswan - Lok Janashakti Party Chief
He diluted demands for a strong Lokpal Bill by pressing for reservations.

[Solved] - HP F4488 not printing - /usr/lib/cups/backend/hp failed

Happen to remove my color cartridge and test out only with my black cartridge. It worked the first time but later on every time when I selected the printer with the respective application beside the deskjet F4400 - /usr/lib/cups/backend/hp failed was displayed. I tried stopping and restarting the cupsys daemon
/etc/init.d/cupsys.d stop
/etc/init.d/cupsys.d start

I couldn't get it started so following the instruction at http://chenjie66.wordpress.com/2011/03/26/usrlibcupsbackendhp-failed/ which did work.

I don't know whether the gui equivalent of such resolution is available or not.

Retro Tracing - slmodem(USB V92 56K) with driver

To be precise its Krypton Modem v.92 56K USB

The device looks sleek.Driver can be found here http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnumen/files/
Yep its a dial-up modem running on 2.4 kernel. It was run on weendoz first then got the driver from www.smlink.com(site not found now) for GNU/Linux. Use to make use of the driver in Redhat 9.0 and ran like it should be.. when speed was not of concern than the device(s) made to run on GNU/Linux(At that time compiling the src to activate the device was considered c00l, now its almost apt/rpm).Wanted to see when I did it and the date was 2006-2007.

The Redhat 9 was not also automounting the usb pen drive. So these steps helped in recognizing the device and mounting it.

accessing a site slowing things down ?

pretty unusual, observed that opening up a site (to be precise android.com) made my box to use up almost all of the cpu and the browser started to respond slowly. the screen shot of the resource utilized is given below. Why in the name of god is such thing happening.

Mr whatson - just a glimpse of questions "brewing in mind"

It is possible to get answers to all the questions but when it comes to implementing it, it's said that its not pragmatic.
List of  questions

• why have a social structure when it promotes anarchy?
• why believe in good via bad references?
• why get married when life after marriage is miserable?
• why have kids when you have to beat them up?
• how can a non-thinking kid grow up to become a non-thinking parent?
• Is parenting just about giving birth to kids?
• how can a parent with shallow thinking guide a kid (which is still raw) to think deep?
• When the parents are/were wrong do they confess to their kids they were wrong?
• Are you superstitious?
• why perpetuate myth/superstition in connection with god?
• why is a workplace just another political scenario?
• why can't people just mind what they have to work with?
• why do people talk junk when they can refrain from doing so?
• why do humans especially females cry when things go wrong?
• Does crying solve any problem, if not then why do people cry?
• why humans don't take responsibility, this include blaming too?
• why most people can't get addicted to good things? like learning new tech/science?
• why most humans are always attracted to do bad?
• why is government formed. its for the people or are people for the government?
• if people created government for its security then why government needs security from people?
• why are politicians such scoundrels(except few good ones)?
• why does material instigate us to work and not the work that instigates us to work?
• Is there anyone willing to work without benefits? if so how?
• why vote when the options given are useless?
• isn't it a form of dictatorship in democracy, where only one time people are allowed to vote and the rest of their 5 years or whatever is out of  their hands?
• Does society breed mediocrity?
• do humans live to breed as an ignorant species or breed as an intelligent species?
• why do parents misconceive that they know everything?
• what are the basic needs of an individual and how to standardize it?
• why have god when it promotes superstition?
• if government earns its revenue through beverages how is that beverage bad(liquor)?
• if developed nation sells weapon how can it be a member in peace process?In what way they are promoting peace?
• if medicine is to cure 1 disease how is it that it has 5-10 side effects is that called curing?
• How can one be a good parent if he/she were bad kid?
• Can a drunkard advice a teetotaler about controlling desire and temptation?
• Why should one comply with a goal which is in the opposite direction of the one that have been conceived and without even knowing what one implies?
• How can a kid grow up in a chaotic and unharmonious environment(exception are there)?
• Why do people's thinking so shallow?
• Don't people have the ability to recognize all by themselves that they are good or bad or hypocrites or bourgeois?
• Isn't it wrong to demand from others what one cannot implement on oneself.
• Why don't people think for intellectual progress instead of material progress?
• Is ignorance letting us be human or animal?
• Isn't the system wrong if one has to fight for anything?
• how can one quantify the intellectual progress?
• when love happens only one time then how is that lovers marry a different partner?
• why people who worked for money instruct those who work for the type of work rather than money.

UI of DT 845W

Subject in discussion: Binatone DT 845W wireless ADSL2+ Modem router

Its web interface doesn't show which all machines are currently accessing the Internet unlike wa3002g4 which gives the machines accessing (mac address as well as ip address). The reason for checking out was to implement a time limit for Internet access for a particular machine based on mac address.
wireless mac address, ACL, filter type, parental control filtering option are given.
