Nokia CEO's letter to employees
Finland-based Nokia faces a key test this week when chief executive Stephen Elop finally unveils a plan to reverse a sharp slide in the fortunes of the world's number one mobile phone maker.
Nokia holds a strategy and financial briefing in London on Friday, two weeks after it reported a 21 percent slump in fourth quarter earnings and Elop promised: "The industry's changed and now it's time for Nokia to change faster."
Engadget has reprinted a copy of the text from an internal Nokia memo from the CEO Elop to the company's employees. Here's over to the letter which several analysts have termed 'brutually honest'.
Hello there,
There is a pertinent story about a man who was working on an oil platform in the North Sea. He woke up one night from a loud explosion, which suddenly set his entire oil platform on fire. In mere moments, he was surrounded by flames. Through the smoke and heat, he barely made his way out of the chaos to the platform's edge. When he looked down over the edge, all he could see were the dark, cold, foreboding Atlantic waters.
As the fire approached him, the man had mere seconds to react. He could stand on the platform, and inevitably be consumed by the burning flames. Or, he could plunge 30 meters in to the freezing waters. The man was standing upon a "burning platform," and he needed to make a choice.
He decided to jump. It was unexpected. In ordinary circumstances, the man would never consider plunging into icy waters. But these were not ordinary times - his platform was on fire. The man survived the fall and the waters. After he was rescued, he noted that a "burning platform" caused a radical change in his behaviour.

Mobile Phones Emit Radiation, Unsafe: Govt Panel
Radiation released from mobile phones and towers can adversely affect your health as it involves serious health risks like loss of memory, lack of concentration, disturbance in the digestive system, sleep disturbances etc. reports an inter-ministerial committee. To study the hazards posed by mobile phones, the 8-member committee was formed by the Ministry of Communications and IT which also attributes that the disappearance of butterflies, bees, insects and sparrows from big cities is the result of mobile phone-related radiation. Therefore, it has said that the mobile towers should not be installed near high density residential areas, schools, playgrounds and hospitals. [Via The EFY]

PROCESS EXECUTION TIME
'man time'.
Syntax:
time <executable/command (with arguments)>
For Ex:
$ /usr/bin/time find / -name csh.1 -print
real 1:15.5
(time elapsed between invocation and termination)
user 0.3
(time spent in user process code)
sys 3.3
(time spent in system code)
The executable/command is run by the 'time' as a child process and then elapsed, user, system time are reported. There is a csh version of 'time'. It will report the time in different format.
In Solaris 'ptime' gives more accurate results.
/usr/proc/bin/ptime command/executable [ arg ... ]
