Before landing leh , I was having an impression that leh would be a cold dessert with not much greenery. That was partially true but on the other hand leh had some of the prettiest flowers. When they blossomed , I felt like a soul opening out to nature. Leh was smiling with a bunch of flowers, very pleasing and alluring.
I have pasted some of my fav clicks with a bit of beginner’s photography 
I had attributed each of the flower the way I felt when I saw them. They looked heavenly and complemented ladakh better.
Pasting last few lines from Khalil Gibran’s poem
I am the lover’s gift; I am the wedding wreath;
I am the memory of a moment of happiness;
I am the last gift of the living to the dead;
I am a part of joy and a part of sorrow.
But I look up high to see only the light,
And never look down to see my shadow.
This is wisdom which man must learn.
Happy Reading!!!

This time I’m gonna pen about one of the amazing places I visited during the month of June. I would say its “Nature’s heaven in India“.
The place was joyful like a friend, lovely as a mother & beautiful like a pretty princess.
This is exactly the place everyone of us would have dreamt.
Yes its Amazing leh ladak!!!!
It was a 7 days trip , every day being fun filled and beautiful.I had actually planned to write a lot about my trip , not sure if I would but I’m gonna start off with this amazing picture taken from the aircraft before we landed leh.
I feel really sorry for what happened in Leh few weeks back. In my opinion,people in Leh are very honest, friendly and simple. We really missed many of them while coming back. Hope everything turns fine.
In my next post, I shall feed in with more fun and pics
Happy Reading.

For the past few days, I was doing a bit of study on which Java based Content Management System (CMS) is the best one. Came across a lot of open source CMS like XWiki, Alfresco, Magnolia, AtLeap etc..,
While doing my search, I found the below link helpful.
Pasting for your reference.

Finally boiled down with Alfresco. Really, many of its features are attractive.
Alfresco is a Enterprise Content Management System , a open source project which gives excellent quality with much lower cost.
Its a extensible framework based on open source components, compliant with standards under a open source license for Enterprise Content Management.
Its not tied to a specific operating system, web browser,application server, nor database.Alfresco offers Enterprise Content Management(ECM),Document Management,Collaboration, Records Management Knowledge Management,Web Content Management and Imaging .
It owns a heterogenous architecture that uses latest open source Java technologies like Spring,Hibernate, Lucene and JSF. Its highly Scalable and Fault Tolerant Service Oriented Architecture.
It improves administrator productivity with its simple server install and no client install.More important – advanced content security management.It provides Google®-Like Search and Yahoo!®-Like Folder Browsing.
One more interesting feature is the application of the concept of aspects. From the concept of AOP (Aspect Oriented Programming), an Aspect is a general set of attributes or capabilities that can be assigned to an object without relying on inheritance through the class hierarchy.
In Alfresco, there are aspects like versionable or categorized. This concepts allow content types to be very simple and, if we desire, users can add attributes to a single instance of a content asset.
Everything here is a node. Each node has a type. These types qualify nodes with some properties and nodes associate with each other to form associations.Its possible to add actions to a node with a rule . Each node is identified by a UUID . Each node lives in a store and Alfresco provides
services to manage these nodes. We can access the services via the Service Registry.
There’s lot more to discuss about Alfresco , but to put it short
Alfresco is a ready-to-run ECM with high usability.Its a 100 percent open source model.However Alfresco lacks the advanced workflow and capability of publishing web sites.Still Alfresco’s Share feature and wide acceptability of platforms keeps it at the top.
Happy Weeknd!!!
