Funny mail about S/W engineers

There was a good old barber in Hyderabad. One day a florist goes to him for a haircut. After the cut, he goes to pay the barber and the barber replies:

I am sorry, I cannot accept money from you, I am doing a Community Service.

Florist is happy and leaves the shop.


The next morning when the Barber goes to open his shop, there is a "Thank You" Card and a dozen roses waiting at his door.

A Confectioner goes for a haircut and he also goes to pay the barber he again refuses to take the money. The Confectioner is happy and leaves the shop.

The next morning when the Barber goes to open his shop, there is another "Thank you" Card and a dozen Cakes waiting at his door.


A Software Engineer goes for a haircut and he also goes to pay the barber again refuses the money saying that it was a community service.

The next morning when the Barber goes to open his shop, guess what he finds there ......

Adurs Movie Review


After long time, I have seen a telugu movie in Delhi. After big dilema, we 4 frnds finally went to watch movie. Why we don't want to watch telugu movies in Delhi is theaters are too far from NOIDA( Most of the times movie will come in Gurgaon PVR or PVR SelectWalk) and ticket price will be more than 250. Travel for 2 hrs and watch movie for 3hrs nd again travel back for 2 more hours, So Its hectic. when we go home we Usually cover all good movies if those movies are not watched in torrents.

We 4 guys booked tickets online for PVR select walk near Malviyanagar for morning show. Very few people came for movie(around 40 to 45 ppl).

When movie started, it seems to be very interested nd going to be gr8 hit. after 25mins, boring..boring.. when NTR brahman character or Bramhanandam comes again movie will be good.. again boring.. again interesting. First half it will be like tht. Heroines are too cute. ;)

In second half, story become big. Main villain Manjrekar will come. He is good in his character. Brahmanandam and MS Narayana comedy track is good.

Moive is good fun with routine telugu stories.

We ordered 2 Rajasthani thalis, 2 south indian, 1 punjabi, 1 Gujarathi Thali. Except South indian, all were good. Then we started to Amer fort. We can take our car to above hill also if parking is not full there. Fort is good. It takes nearly 2 hrs to see and come back. On the way back to jaipur, Jaigarh fort also there. World largest canon is one of the attraction in that fort. Then Jal mahal. After 6pm, they will on the Lights in Jal mahal. It's good to see.

After fresh up we started to Chokhi Dhani(22km from Jaipur). It will be opened at 7pm till 12pm. Normal entry fee is 250 but its christmas and new year time. so thye increased entry fee to 500. Its worth to see. Food was very good. we reached Hotel at 12:30.

How to Rotate Image at any angle using GIMP

Most of the image editing tools(MSPaint, Photoshop, GIMP etc.) have support for rotating image by 90, 180 and 270 degrees.

In GIMP, if u go Image->Transform option, it has option for 90 and 180 only.
If you want to rotate image with certain angle, then goto Tools->TransformTools->Rotate then input angle you want, and you can mention axis of origin(By Default, it will take centre of image).

If width != Height, then obviously some of the rotated data will be lost, and some part of imge will not get rotated data. So, if you want to rotate entire image with out any problems, use square resolution images(width == height)
