रिमझिम धून
रिमझिम धून, आभाळ भरुन
रिमझिम धून, आभाळ भरुन
हरवले मन, येणार हे कोण ?
मन फुलांचा थवा, गंध हा हवा हवा
वाहतो वारा नवा, जुन्यात हरवून
गूज मनीचे मनाला, आठवूनी त्या क्षणाला
सांगावे का माझे मला, उगाच मनात बावरुन
वार्यात गाणे कुणाचे, गाण्यात वारे मनाचे
मनाच्या वार्यात आता, सुरात तुला मी कवळून ...

Do what you love, love what you have to do
Steve Jobs, the CEO of Apple Computer and Pixar Animation Studios delivered a great speech in a Commencement address to Stanford University’s 2005 graduates. Steve who founded Apple Computer was fired by his own company. He continued to say in the commencement address "Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. You've got to find what you love. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle."
Table topic sessions are meant to improve your impromptu speaking. I will present topics where Toastmaster members as well as guests can participate. One can volunteer to participate in the topics; just raise your hand when you need to participate. If no one does I have the right to nominate any one from you. Just to reiterate about the timings if it’s an individual speech 2 minutes will be given and if it’s a debate/conversation 3 minutes will be given. A grace period of 30 seconds will be given if anyone exceeds the time limit. And be alert when you here the topics, as there is an exciting Landmark voucher to be won for the best Table topic Master. So let us begin with our first topic.
1. The topic is "Love". What are your thoughts when you hear the word love?
2. So moving on to our second topic. Imagine if you are too good at your writing skills but being in software industry you are not able to dedicate full time for your love of writing. So will you sacrifice your job and become a successful writer or would you like to stick in the software industry?
3. Let us move to our next topic. You need to ask yourself a question "What I want to do every day for the rest of my life? Do that."
4. Moving on to the next topic. (Showing the picture. Ask a question “Does anybody know this person?”)
Steve Jobs famously quoted "Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish" for what you want to achieve. So our next table topic is "Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish to achieve success".
5. Our next topic is a debate. So I will require two speakers. The topic is "Is luck important in being successful?" One will speak that "Yes" luck is important and the other need to argue that not luck but great hard work is needed to be successful.
6. Tell us about your idol in your life and why do you admire the idol.
7. Imagine yourself being a CEO or Board of Director of some great company that you have founded and nurtured. Now your school calls up to you to deliver a motivational speech about how you have achieved glory in your life. So you need to deliver a motivational speech.
8. Let us have a look at this Dilbert picture.
So our next topic is a conversation between a boss and Dilbert. As seen, the boss has assigned some work to Dilbert but unfortunately the boss has forgotten what work he had given. Now we will further continue the story, now the boss remembers what work he has assigned. So I will need a Boss and Dilbert.
9. Share with us any movie that you really got impressed with and want to become like the main character for rest of your life.
I think we are about time. Just conclusion remarks, in order to achieve whatever you want in life remember Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish. Thank you all very much. Over to MoC.

Murphy's Law of Computer Programming
Here are some of the wittiest laws defined by Murphy for Computer Programmers:
Corollaries are welcomed for the above law ;)
- Any given program, when running, is obsolete.
- Any given program costs more and takes longer each time it is run.
- If a program is useful, it will have to be changed.
- If a program is useless, it will have to be documented.
- Any given program will expand to fill all the available memory.
- The value of a program is inversely proportional to the weight of its output.
- Program complexity grows until it exceeds the capability of the programmer who must maintain it.
- Undetectable errors are infinite in variety, in contrast to detectable errors, which by definition are limited.
- No matter how many resources you have, it is never enough.
- If Murphy's laws are so true then how come I can log onto this site and submi............
[connection reset - error message 928 ] - A patch is a piece of software which replaces old bugs with new bugs
- It's not a bug, it's an undocumented feature.
- No matter what problem you have with your computer - Its Always Microsoft's fault
Corollary: If its not their fault - Blame them anyway :-)
Corollaries are welcomed for the above law ;)
