FOSS (Free Open Source Software) Free As Freedom:

Our final day at Subisu CAN infotech, 7 September. Morning environment around event area was stress because of strike(bandh) by Maoist (baidhya supporter) so, the event was launched little late than early days than as usual we move to our stall A135 and start to manage our stall. We were already out of our stock Nirvikalpa 3.0, we had only stock of linux mint 32 & and 64 bit plus Obuntu which was modified by Oscal linux community from Amrit Science Campus located in Thamel.

Soon the visitor were started to enter in the event, in the event our stall was one of the busiest stall. We were much happy to give information about free and open source software to our visitor which were from school students to older people. In stall most people ask us about what is linux? Is it hard to use? Can I install both windows & linux in same computer and so on. In the stall the people keep keen interest upon the OS linux mint 13 as it was much familiar to use, genuine and most importantly virus free OS.

In final day we had more visitor than previous days and volunteer. Volunteer were busy in one on one counseling with visitor giving genuine information to every one and finally at the end of day we were nearly out of stock of available DVD left DVD were only some linux mint 64 bit and Obuntu, which make us happy because they were proof that we provide right information to our visitor.

Finally, I was aware of what is cyber law? and what is FOSS.

Swayambhunath (Devanagari: स्वयम्भूनाथ स्तुप; sometimes romanized Swoyambhunath) is an ancient religious complex atop a hill in the Kathmandu Valley, west of Kathmandu city. It is also known as the Monkey Temple as there are holy monkeys living in the north-west parts of the temple. The Tibetan name for the site means 'Sublime Trees' (Wylie:Phags.pa Shing.kun), for the many varieties of trees found on the hill. However, Shing.kun may be a corruption of the local Newari name for the complex, Singgu, meaning 'self-sprung'.[1] For the Buddhist Newars in whose mythological history and origin myth as well as day-to-day religious practice, Swayambhunath occupies a central position, it is probably the most sacred among Buddhist pilgrimage sites. For Tibetans and followers of Tibetan Buddhism, it is second only to Boudhanath.

The Swayambhunath complex consists of a stupa, a variety of shrines and temples, some dating back to the Licchavi period. A Tibetan monastery, museum and library are more recent additions. The stupa has Buddha's eyes and eyebrows painted on. Between them, there is something painted which looks like the nose - but is the Nepali symbol of 'unity', in the main Nepali language dialect[citation needed]. There are also shops, restaurants and hostels. The site has two access points: a long stairway, claimed to have 365 steps, leading directly to the main platform of the temple, which is from the top of the hill to the east; and a car road around the hill from the south leading to the southwest entrance. The first sight on reaching the top of the stairway is the Vajra. Tsultrim Allione describes the experience:

Augmented Reality

According to Arthur C. Clarke any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

Technology is one of the most development work in the day of today. Technology like computing, mobile, machine etc. among these technology Augmented Reality (AR) is one of the technology which is getting advance day by day.

AR allows virtual imagery to overlay physical objects seamless (continuous) way. In today's date Augmented Reality is used in almost every field like movies, games, robots, sports, mobile etc. Movies like iron man, avatar, robocops are some good examples of the Augmented reality. We can also find Augmented Reality tools in our phones like android phones, Iphone. In these phones tools like tube London, Soccer Iphone are examples of Augmented Reality.
