Rudyard Kipling's IF
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream--and not make dreams your master,
If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much,
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!
--Rudyard Kipling

* The database is in alpha stage. This means that the skeleton is up and the data is being verified.
* Apologies for being half baked.
* Please let us know: What were you looking for?
* Any suggestions or feedback for the database construction.
* Brickbats, if any.
Mail us your feedback

Kind Words for Investment Bankers
TT Ram Mohan has some kind words
They were quite sensitive to operating costs (other than employee costs where
they went overboard). Otherwise, business divisions operated on the principle of
return on capital allocated. Since their bonus numbers were linked to this, they
went all out to slash costs wherever possible.

How to build a community for my Joomla site?
Found this Joomla Community Builder which claims to be the answer to my question.
They say that its all of the following:
- A Joomla component and 3 collaborating core modules
- An environment for producing and maintaining online communities on Joomla driven sites
- A system that provides user profile capabilities for Joomla sites
- A different registration/login process for Joomla
- An environment that enables Joomla site administrators to create user profiles that capture extra information from users
- A framework for other Joomla components to integrate with user profiles
Let's see if I can learn to use all the features. Looks really exciting!
