		File scriptFile = new File("/home/java2novice/test.sh");
		System.out.println("Current file permissions:");
		System.out.println("Can Execute? "+scriptFile.canExecute());
		System.out.println("Can Read? "+scriptFile.canRead());
		System.out.println("Can Write? "+scriptFile.canWrite());
		scriptFile.setExecutable(true);
		scriptFile.setReadable(true);
		scriptFile.setWritable(true);
		System.out.println("Now file permissions:");
		System.out.println("Can Execute? "+scriptFile.canExecute());
		System.out.println("Can Read? "+scriptFile.canRead());
		System.out.println("Can Write? "+scriptFile.canWrite());
	}

Preemptive scheduling Vs Time slicing?
Preemptive scheduling: The highest priority task executes until it enters the waiting or dead states or a higher priority task comes into existence.

Time slicing: A task executes for a predefined slice of time and then reenters the pool of ready tasks. The scheduler then determines which task should execute next, based on priority and other factors.
Famous Quotations
The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.
