Now Indian Rupee Gets a Symbol

The Indian rupee now has a unique symbol. A blend of the Devanagri 'Ra' and Roman 'R' joining elite currencies like the US dollar, euro, British pound and Japanese yen in having a distinct identity. The new symbol, designed by Bombay IIT post-graduate D Udaya Kumar, was approved by the cabinet Yesterday. It reflecting that the Indian currency, backed by an over-trillion dollar economy, was finally making its presence felt on the international scene. 

Information and Broadcasting Minister Ambika Soni told reporters after the cabinet meeting, "It's a big statement on the Indian currency... The symbol would lend a distinctive character and identity to the currency and further highlight the strength and global face of the Indian economy".
Soni said that the symbol, which reflects the Indian ethos and culture, would help distinguish the currency from the rupee or rupiah of other countries like Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Indonesia.

Kumar's entry was chosen from 3,000 designs competing for the currency symbol. He will get an award of Rs 2.5 lakh.
"It is a perfect blend of Indian and Roman letters — capital 'R' and Devanagri 'Ra' which represents rupaiah, to appeal to international and Indian audiences... My design is based on the tricolour, with two lines at the top and white space in between," a visibly-happy Kumar said. 


It you thinking that how will the rupee be typed, don't worry, India is a member of the Unicode Consortium and getting an approval for the new symbol shouldn't be too difficult. In fact the new symbol had been designed keeping in mind the ease with which it can be incorporated into the existing software systems.
The Unicode Technical Committee meets on a quarterly basis and the next meeting is scheduled for October. Some developers are already developing fonts that will include the symbol for the in-between time.

How to hide or protect folders in Ubuntu linux

Unlike Microsoft Windows, Ubuntu doesn’t have Hidden attribute in folder properties, but rather it has better option to protect or hide the important folders and files. Linux is famous for security and Ubuntu has no exception. Ubuntu can protect your folder without using any type of software.

So to protect your important files in Ubuntu follow these steps.

STEP 1:
Create a new folder anywhere you want, and again create new folder inside that folder. Lets consider we have created two folders “untitled folder″ and inside that “untitled folder 2″. Now put all your important files inside inner folder “untitled folder 2″.

STEP 2:
Right click on 1st folder i.e. “untitled folder″ and Go to properties.
Then select “Permissions” tab. and then select “List files only” in “Folder access” option. If you have multiuser system then do same thing for all users by selecting the proper group.
In just two steps you have protected your files inside a folder, Now when ever somebuddy tries to open the inner folder he/she will get the “Permission Error”.

You can do this trick on single folder or single file, but using two folders you can hide the actual file names too. Actually this is just a basic folder protection trick for Ubuntu, just replacement for Hidden attribute in Windows OS.

Windows Password Recovery

www.loginrecovery.com This site provides a tool to recover lost Windows XP passwords. It works for administrator and user accounts, it doesn't change the password just tells you the old one. It works with encrypted files (EFS) and password hashes. It even works if no passwords at all are known for the machine (as long as you have another computer with internet access to view this website with). Author claims it also works with Windows NT and Windows Server 2003 and Windows Longhorn, but the BEST thing about it is the fact that it won't reset your passwords, but simply reveal them for you to remember and then use. Give it a try. The author would like to receive feedback. The fee for the service is very cheap, and is really just to cover server costs. Note: You'll need a blank floppy to run the process.

Update: Author now offers the same tool as a CD image for those of you who do not have a floppy in their computer. Usage, instructions and additional information can be found at www.loginrecovery.com
