I had the pleasure of attending a really informative session on Hibernate Search by Emmanuel Bernard at Redhat Pune campus last week. Here is the premise of it.
How many times has a customer told you they want to search in their application “like Google“? How many times was the search engine in your application too slow? Hibernate Search brings full-text search capabilities to a persistent domain model, providing Google-like search capabilities while avoiding the traditional cost and difficulties to set up such solutions.
In this session, you will learn what problems Hibernate Search can solve and you will follow the steps of adding it to a Hibernate based application. You will build your own application specific full-text search engine. We will also explore advance subjects such as clustering and the underlying of phonetic approximation.

I had the pleasure of attending a talk on telecom domain by Tech Mahindra veteran, Utkarsh Kikani on the 11th April, 2009.
Overall, it was a great event for telecom professionals, who are mainly into programming, as it provided a business perspective. It was a whirlwind tour in 1 hour of a course Mr.Kikani teaches at telecom MBA college in Pune.

The Income Tax Department has put on its website the list of income tax refunds of all salary tax payers which could not be sent to the concerned persons for want of correct address.
Salary taxpayers who have not received refunds for assessment years 2003-4 to 2006-7 can click on the link below and query using the PAN number and assessment year whether any refund due to them has been returned undelivered from the menu `undelivered salary refund management system’. If any refund has been returned undelivered due to change in address, then the taxpayer can enter the present address and the refund will be sent to the taxpayer at the new address.
The link to the website is as under:

I am sitting here in a talk on OpenSocial by Pravin Nirmal. After small bashing of Facebook, he has begun doing a demo, yes, a live demo! This is what you’d expect in the congregation of geeks in the neo-Silicon Valley of India, Pune. We have a sizable participation from Mumbai, Ahmadnagar.
Update: The speaker has hosted his presentation and the demo programs on his site.
It is using opensocial-0.7. He has hosted it on http://sandbox.orkut.com. Here’s the code:

At Shipra mall, originally uploaded by Maverick’s eclectic vicissitudes.
We shifted to Indirapuram, a suburb next to East Delhi. The city shot into prominence with Shipra suncity and Shipra Mall. Now, a lot of constructions are taking place. Shipra mall can easily be told to be architecturally most aesthetic mall in NCR. Akshat frequents there a lot.
