Friends, Grills and Conversation

Saturday was a well spent day. After a long time had a good day spent having dinner at http://www.barbeque-nation.com/ with few of my close friends (Amit, Urvashi and Sumit along with Radhika as well)..

More than the food it was the company and the conversation that was more important. And for a change Antiquity Blue tasted even more better...

As usual there's always some goofups that happens when ordering the "mocktails".  Last time we had a twist with  "Virgin Mary" mock tail.  More info at http://cocktails.about.com/od/v/r/vrgn_mry_mcktl.htm.
This time "pina colada" had an element of "rum" in it upsetting the ladies.. That's still small fun things in life.  Later I learned that  *pina colada* is a spanish cocktail which has an element of *rum* in it...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi%C3%B1a_colada

The wiki definition is as follows
*The piña colada (Spanish, strained pineapple: piña, pineapple + colada, strained) is a sweet, rum-based cocktail made with hard rum, cream of coconut, and pineapple juice, usually served either blended or shaken with ice. It may be garnished with a pineapple wedge or a maraschino cherry. The piña colada has been the official beverage of Puerto Rico since 1978.[1]*

And the non-alcoholic version (mocktail) is known as *Coco Colada* or "Virgin Pina Colada"... Another learning as far as mocktails and cocktails are concerned... So, next time we will be careful while ordering.

Each bite of the *grill* was followed by an equivalent bite of humor as well :)
Shared some fun experiences.. Was definitely  worth a million :)  Thanks guys for the beautiful evening...

On the other hand *Rohan* has changed our life completely. He always keeps us on our toes...
He taught us to enjoy small things in life... like
  •  Smiling looking at the fan
  •  Giving cute expressions and enjoying at it
  •  Keep smiling unless there is some genuine reason to frown... etc and many more things...
Everyday feels like a holiday as simply glaring at him eases the tensions and frictions....

Enjoy Life :)

JavaScript Scope

In this blog post we will dig deeper into various aspects of JavaScript scope.  This is a pretty interesting topic  and also a topic which confuses many beginning JavaScript programmers. Understanding JavaScript scope helps you write bug free programs (hmm.. atleast helps your troubleshoot things easily) Scope control the visibility and lifetimes of variables and parameters.  This is important from the perspective of avoiding naming collisions and provides memory management service. Unlike other languages, JavaScript does not have block level scope.  For e.g. take for instance the following piece of c# code. public void Main () { int a = 5; if (true) { int b = 10; } // This will throw compile time error as b is not defined // and not within the scope of function Main(); Console.WriteLine(b); } If you write the same code in JavaScript, then the value of 'b' will be available outside the 'if' block. The reason for this is JavaScript does no...

Core Leadership Strengths

Here are few notes that I am putting out from my leadership training seminar. Lets have a look at the "Five Clusters of Strength". - Personal Character Character is who you are when no one is looking. This is the core strength which every leader/human should possess. This deals with the ethical standards, integrity and authenticity of the leader. - Personal Capability This trait deals with the intellectual, emotional, and skill of the individual. It includes analytical and problem-solving capabilities along with the technical competencies. Great leaders need a strong collection of these personal capabilities. - Focus on result This deals with capability to achieve results, having an impact on the organization. It also highlights the capability for getting things done. - Interpersonal/People skill This relates with character. It deals with the leaders ability to effectively communicate with the people.
