Russian Peasant Multiplication
Start by writing the two numbers to be multiplied at the head of two columns. Then they repeatedly divide the number in the left column by two (dropping any remainder) and double the number in the right column, writing the two new numbers immediately below their predecessors, until the number in the left column is one. Then they cross out all rows where the number in the left column is even, and add the remaining numbers in the right column, which is the desired product.
For instance, the product eighteen times twenty-three is found like this.

Server upgraded to new Ubuntu 9.04 server
The website is up, and running on a brand new OS – Ubuntu 9.04 Server. Supercool to configure, has pre-configured LAMP, OpenSSH out-of-the-box.
Using the UFW was too easy than messing with iptables, or routing.
Feeling great having refreshed up my home server with a mature OS. -
Visit to Mahesh’s place in Nishi-kasai
We had a splendid day today! We were invited to Mahesh’s place in Nishi-kasai. Amrita, Nicolas enjoyed their playtime with little Vibha.
We feasted on an extremely delicious lunch prepared by Rajshri (Mahesh’s wife) – Puran Poli, with Amti. And not to mention, how tasty the Bhaji was… ahaha yummy!
The next was a well mixed dish of basmati rice with amti, one cannot describe it’s taste in words unless you eat it prepared from Rajshri’s hands once.
All of us really enjoyed the short visit to our friends, and we could really say our visit as greatly satisfying (and appetizing) despite of the gloomy, rainy day outside.
Some very funny moments, especially when Amrita, Nicolas decided to play with Mahesh, and Rajshri.
We do wish to visit our friend often, and see how Amrita, Vibha’s new friendship grows deeper. Nicolas with his unsatisfied appetite, was eating anything that came in the way of his mouth. Hope he doesn’t upset his stomach with this cocktail of apple juice, bhaji, snacks, rice, puran poli, milk, and vitamin water (phew!)

I hate such adverts
When i see such advertisements, it really infuriates me.
Are people so “dumb” as to expect this as something new offerred during Golden Week holidays in Japan? In today’s age, is there any ATM closed during holidays? Why then still make such catchy adverts claiming something already people expect, and present it as a beneficial service?

My slick HTC X02HT with spiced up WM 6
Recently I visited smartphone-freeware. It has quiet a good amount of freeware goodies to spice up your Windows Mobile 6 Smartphone.
I downloaded some good ones, particularly TotalCommander, slick-new theme Leopard OSX, and the must-have SmartToolkit.
Guess how my mobile looks?
Couldn’t get Skype to install due to insufficient space. 🙁 Need to free up some programs.

Amrita turns 1 year today
Our most beloved (did I mention adorable?) daughter turned 1 year today at exact 14:15H Japan time. Phew, it seems ages ago! She took full 3 days to choose to come out of mama’s cozy stomach room. She did give a hard time to her mother – got a sore throat from screaming with contraction pains.
No matter what, she is the hearbeat of our life. There isn’t a single moment when we do not think of her. Our day starts only to end with her every time. Amrita is the most beautiful daughter for us.
Today she got in the park with her mama, playing
, enjoying the cool weather with mama of course 🙂 
and then coming home for a NICE treat – a mango stuffed delicious yummy cake 
, which of course wasn’t to be eaten alone without her new friend 
, little Fumi.We wish you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY dearest Amrita!
Roses are red, violets are blue,… whatever – we will always LOVE you! 😀 -
