Guess what?? We won the first prize!!!
Yesterday on saturday, my team won the first prize in pookalam competition.. Actually we haven’t had much hopes about wining this year because the competition was intense.. there were some amazing concepts from other teams and we didn’t have much to offer besides team work and dedication..All the credit goes to my students who did their best work.. it got into the first place..

More complaints against the new system
Earlier I have written that the new systems that they have sent us was somewhat not the one we needed, now I have a problem with one of the new systems in my lab. The LCD monitor stopped working. Suddenly it went blank. The power LED is still working but no display. Fortunately I have a old CRT monitor in perfect condition at my disposal. I just love CRT monitors for their reliability.

Systems that we cannot use?
Head Office has sent us some systems - they are pretty looking Dell i3 systems. The problem is that they are pre-installed with Windows 7 Home basic edition. Now this is an OS which doesn’t provide all the features that we want. Currently we are using Windows 7 Enterprise trial in our labs. We can’t format these new systems or install another operating system in them because it has just one main partition in it. Pradeep sir has contacted Manoj sir at Chennai - hope he provides a solution soon.

Short Term Health Insurance
I have a lot of stuff to say about NC (North Carolina) - I have said some in the past - They have some of the best health plans I have seen. Don’t believe me? Google it. Now I am looking at short term health insurance NC. There are some pretty good temporary health insurance plans available for students, part time workers, those in between jobs or between two insurances. There is a shortage of good affordable health insurance plans in India.
