Redirection to my dynamically assigned IP with No-IP

I found No-IP.com recently. It solved the problem of running a server with dynamic ip addresses that I mentioned in a previous post. No-ip.com gives a free subdomain like 'yourname.no-ip.com' which will redirect to your ip-address. There is also available a 'Dynamic Update Client' to manage dynamic ip-addresses. It is a software that runs on your computer and updates the dns servers each time you connect to the internet. It can be started manually or set to run automatically. Now I don't have to type ip-address each time I want access my computer from outside.
I cannot tell you the web-address for my computer here as I have limited bandwidth and there may be many security vulnerabilities.

Comet Lulin Comes Closer

Image
Comet Lulin will be on its closest approach (.41 AU) to earth on 24th February. It will not be much bright though (Max. magnitude 4.0 - 5.0). Still on a dark sky you may be able to spot it as a white splotch against the black sky. Look for it in the constellation Leo [ skymap ]. It will lie only a few degrees from saturn. The comet actually looks green through powerful telescopes. This is because, its gassy atmosphere, of the size of Jupiter, contains cyanogen(CN) and diatomic carbon(C 2 ), both glow green in sunlight.

Into the World of Computer Gaming

Image
I had a Desktop PC with Gigabyte G31M-S2L motherboard, Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 2GB RAM for a long time. But, it didn't have any dedicated graphics card. Most computer games wouldn't work on my PC. Recently, I bought a descent mid-range graphics card (AMD Raedon 6670 1 GB DDR5) for Rs. 5400. Now, I can play almost all the latest games in High Resolution.
