she actually came at 11:00 pm...;)

 

time spent alone

Author: Ravi Kant

We usually meet during night time. I waited the whole day for night to come. Every hour, every minute, i had been staring at that point with the hope that she would turn up but a disappointed face stared back at me. Still I kept in touch with my faith that she would finally come and talk to me during night time. Afternoon passed away. Evening passed away. It was already 8 pm but still no sign of her. Maybe she'll show up late I thought. I waited till 10 pm. Maybe she didn't like me. Still I kept faith in my faith that she would eventually turn up. 10:01 pm, 10:02 pm...still no sign. What the fuck happened to her. 10:03 pm.............10:31pm.........still no sign.
I waited and waited and waited for one more minute. Still..............Then.........at that moment...............when I was at the verge of completely losing everything............I lost everything. Eventually she didn't turn up at all. I think she didn't like me.

 

Pranayama is nifty and useful but this monotonous act sends us many times into mind numbing state.
To prevent this, make pranayama interesting. Breathe as if you are playing some drums. Listen to the sounds of inhalation and exhalation and try to convert that sound into some kind of rock music or anything you wish. Its ultimately in your hands how you do pranayama. The point is you won't quit doing it at all by twisting and tweaking wih the basics. In fact, it will motivate you  to further levels.

 

make women laugh

Author: Ravi Kant

Recently I read this book called "Make women laugh". It was quite an interesting book which kept me held to it until the end of the story except with some fluctuations. Still its a must read book which gives insight of women, their general likings and dislikings and when to say the right thing.
The book basically covered the following points:
1. Women like jokes based on images rather than the actual logic applied in that joke. A joke which may be logically sucking may appear hilarious in the mindset of a women.
2. Reflecting our girlfriends movements enhances your relationship with her.
3. They want to be powerful but still want to be overpowered by her lover. So you need to maintain balance on both sides. Its a hybrid situation. You have to feel stupid in her eyes but still be the dominating character.
4. Never ever crack jokes about her in public. But tease her only in complete privacy.
5. Making her laugh is the most important part and reason why a women falls in love with a man but there are many other factors which make her fall in love.
6. 80 / 20 rule is applicable even here.
ctd,. later....

 

online notepad

Jot this down is really a useful site. It allows you to write anything online for free and only you can access it later. This way you get both privacy and freedom to write. I have always wanted a place to write where no one can snoop in to my writings. I use a desktop at my home and if i save it, anyone can peek into my personal matters.  Jot this down was ready with its services.

 

This is really a wonderful method to study. Though in many cases I used to follow such method, that was an involuntary measure. Now that I am conscious about what I am doing, it makes much more sense in doing it and even my classes are no longer boring.
But the problem is most of the subjects that we learn are really difficult in case of finding metaphors but once you find a similar metaphor, your job becomes really simple. All you have to do is relate everything. That's much more fun and the info remains in our mind like a ship with its anchor down.
Here I have epitomized the fact with some real world examples which may help for information to stay on your mind. I researched a lot on the internet for this info and I hope you find it useful.
Transistors:
A transistors main function is to amplify current and act as a switch.
God switches between weathers according to input humidity, temperature, pressure and some of his own considerations.
Diodes :allow current to flow in only in one direction.
This can be observed in waterfalls where water fall down but never falls up.
Even share markets started with the same principle of amplification. I give input of 10 dollars and I get an output of 35 dollars.Later it developed into a giant what you see now.
Recently transistors gave birth to field effect transistors. These transistors are much more efficient than their ancestors. They have new methods to produce the same functions that their ancestors could do and much more…all this without compromising on the size of the transistors.
Transistors are produced when two p-n junction diodes mate.

Some facts about transistors:

Transistor was discovered in the same year India got independence. Seems it was a lucky year for everyone.
Supersonic flight: chuck flies in bell x2 at a speed of 662 m/h higher than speed of sound around the same time.
Transistors can be created with biological components.It would be a hybrid model and maybe could show some features like energy efficiency.Using nano-wires coated in lipids, the bio-nanoelectronic transistors are thought to be able to make devices which take advantage of the complex abilities of natural materials and combine them with digital processes.
According to Physorg.com, the human ear can transform sound waves into neural impulses relatively easily, but today´s technology could not perform such a task as efficiently or quickly as the biological version.

Aleksandr Noy, the LLNL lead scientist on the project, told the news provider: "But with the creation of even smaller nanomaterials that are comparable to the size of biological molecules, we can integrate the systems at an even more localized level."

Groundbreaking research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology recently led to the development of a fabric made from fibers which contain semiconductor material, which could lead to smart clothes providing complete 360-degree vision.
University of Arizona physicists have discovered how to turn single molecules into working transistors. It's a breakthrough needed to make the next-generation of remarkably tiny, powerful computers that nanotechnologists dream of.
The transistor is a device just like a valve in your garden hose pipe. It controls the flow of water.
The suitable compound which was found to act similar to transistor was benzene.
A transistor is a device that switches electrical current on and off, just like a valve turns water on and off in a garden hose. Industry now uses transistors as small as 65 nanometers. The UA physicists propose making transistors as small as a single nanometer, or one billionth of a meter.

"All transistors in current technology, and almost all proposed transistors, regulate current flow by raising and lowering an energy barrier," University of Arizona physicist Charles A. Stafford said. "Using electricity to raise and lower energy barriers has worked for a century of switches, but that approach is about to hit the wall."

Transistors can't shrink much smaller than 25 nanometers, or 1/40,000 the width of a pinhead, because scaling down further creates intractable energy problems, Stafford said. Even if it were possible to build an ultra-advanced laptop computer with molecule-sized transistors using current transistor technology, it would take a city's worth of electricity to run the laptop, and the thing would get so hot it would probably vaporize.

Stafford, UA physicist Sumit Mazumdar and David Cardamone, who received his doctorate from UA in 2005, began thinking about the problem of next-generation transistor technology three years ago. They realized that quantum mechanics can solve the problem of how to regulate current flow in a single-molecule transistor that would work at room temperature.

"Our approach is a little more finesse than brute force," Cardamone said. "We don't put up a wall to stop current. It's just that we can regulate how electron waves combine to turn the transistor on or off."

The simplest molecule they propose for a transistor is benzene, a ring-like molecule. They propose attaching two electrical leads to the ring to create two alternate paths through which current can flow.

They also propose attaching a third lead opposite one of the electrical leads. Other researchers have succeeded in attaching two contacts to a molecule this small, but attaching the third is the trick -- and the point. The third lead is what turns the device on and off, the "valve."

"In classical physics, the two currents through each arm of the ring would just add," Stafford said. "But quantum mechanically, the two electron waves interfere with each other destructively, so no current gets through. That's the 'off' state of the transistor."

The transistor is turned on by changing the phase of the waves so they don't destructively interfere with each other, opening up additional paths through the third lead.

"It took a while to go from the idea of how this could work to developing realistic calculations of this kind of system," Stafford said. "We were able to do the simplest kind of quantum chemical calculations which neglect interactions between different electrons within a few weeks. But it took some time to put in all the electron interactions that demonstrate this really is a very robust device."

According to the Semiconductor Research Corp. it typically takes a dozen years for a new idea to go from initial scientific publication to commercial technological application, Stafford noted.

"That means if the computer industry is to continue its recent pace in making smaller-scale computers, we should have had this idea yesterday, " Cardamone said.

Why all this effort to make incomprehensibly small computers? Why expend so much brainpower on nanocomputing?

More computing power will result in more realistic simulations, whether you're a scientist modeling global warming or supernovae explosions, or an entertainment industry animator creating believable emotion in a simulated human face, Stafford said.

Nanocomputers could have a major impact in medicine, Cardamone said. "These machines could operate in solution, in vivo. There already are clinical trials of nanoparticles to deliver medicinal drugs. Imagine how much more powerful those little nanoparticles or nanorobots would be if they could count, or do simple computation. With our transistors packed at maximum density, you could put a microprocessor as powerful as the top-of-the-line workstation on the back of an E. coli."
"Have you seen the movie, Fantastic Voyage?" Stafford asked. A nano-sized surgical team journeyed through a human body in the 1966 sci-fi flick. That's a different story, but with a similar theme.

"We're not futurists at all and can't predict it, but imagine that you could make an artificial intelligence, that you could have this little submarine that goes inside somebody's arteries and capillaries to repair them," Stafford said.
