installation is pretty smooth. This time i decided to  for default Kde4 installtion, no customisation, I did this to get system up and running as early as possible. Package installtion takes 10 min which good. Ubuntu also takes 10 minues. Booting is fast (same as 11.0). All me hardware is detcted and configured properly.system wors quite smoothly. kde4 loads faster than kde3. flash provided with distro is 32 bit. so I download 64 bit flash player. I also tried to install 64-bit jre (update 12 preview) but it did not work for me,(let me know how to make it work). Kde 4 included is quite workable. I used for 2 days and find stable. There are some features missing in kde, like info bar in konqi. kde4.2 will be out in few days. Gnome is also works except few gliches. I miss class application menu in gnome. Shut down and restart did not work as expected, they just log me out of current session.

BBC - Religion & Ethics - Ramadan: Health advice Advice on diet During years where Ramadan falls in the winter, and the long hot days of the summer a mere distant memory, most of the health problems are likely to arise from inappropriate diet, over-eating and insufficient sleep. Firstly, there is no need to consume excess food at Iftar (the food eaten immediately after sunset to break the fast), dinner or Sahur (the light meal generally eaten about half an hour to one hour before dawn). The reasons for this are two-fold. Firstly and most importantly such a lifestyle contradicts the principal aims and spirit of Ramadan. A learned scholar once said that "There is no receptacle more odious to God, than a belly stuffed full of food after a fast" and therefore "of what use is the Fast as a means of conquering God's enemy and abating appetite, if at the time of breaking it one not only makes up for all one has missed during the daytime, but perhaps also indulges in a v...

The melody of the song was inspired by a local Beijing ballad called "Shui Niu", which are snails that come out on rainy days. Children in Beijing like to sing songs to attract these little creatures to come out of their shells.

Only female athlete from Iraq. She is a real hero, who come from war torn country.

Iraqi women runner Dana Abdul-Razzaq has received as loud applause as champions. The Iraqi team's only woman faced many obstacles to reach Beijing, from a sniper's bullets to a lack of training facilities and religious and cultural opposition to female athletes. Before the Olympics, she was told that Iraq was shut out of the international sports gala. When her coach consoled her by saying that she could take part in the 2012 Olympics, she broke into tears, "who knows if I could live that long!"

Mr. Boris is impressed very much with Beijing Olympics so I'm. This olympics will be remember for many years to come. AFP: London 'blown away' by Beijing Olympics: Boris Speaking in Beijing, where the Olympic flag will be formally passed to him at Sunday's closing ceremony, Johnson said the huge spectacle of this year's event was an inspiration to London organisers. "I think I speak for millions of people in the UK, when I say we have been dazzled, we have impressed, we have been blown away by these Beijing Games but we have not been intimidated," he told reporters. "And in our own sweet way, without wasting taxpayers money, I am absolutely convinced that we can do just as well in 2012." Johnson said Britain's medal successes over the past three weeks -- their best performance for 100 years -- had provided the London Games with a real boost. "The Games are changing the public perception of the Olympics ... Olympo-sceptics are being rapi...

many times I feel alienated by friends. I'm the person who stick to his values, I give more important to being right than being winner. I cannot focus on multiple things at a time. They like me, but they never make feel that I'm part their group/team. They never involve me in their things like party or study session. I feel this more during my collage days. Perhaps today's world in not for good people. I feel that this what all other people feel, who want to live with their religious values. Some says you are to good to be considered as good. Make me feel my existence.

It said in all religions that man and women should not get close(intimate or have affairs) before marriage. If there is any rule has been made specially in religion, there must be some very strong reasons abt that .Let me tell you why having affair is wrong, most of us believes that first love is true love, if u fall in love with your marriage partner after marriage, than u already got ur true love. Love is most precious thing save it. Don't vest it here and there. Most of people's heart is broken in love. Their life get derailed, they become hopeless, some go the wrong and some even end their life. After marriage this chance is very low. If you already know ur marriage partner before marriage than there is very little surprises left abt each other after marriage. people in affairs thinks that their partner will accept as you are now, but a lot things changed after marriage, you have to change ur self, this is where the problem starts. People vest a lot of time in dating- goin...
