Veiled

These are two true stories that were suggested by my friend. It made me smile all day today, and its events/stories like these that make me believe that theres still LIFE on this planet.


Story1

Story2

Useless fact #1

During my breaks from research/studies/stickcricket my brain evaluates/gathers a lot of useless facts, so I have now decided have a counter for these facts :P

FACT: The Reynolds number for a bacteria say for a typical 2micro one is 10^-6, now u can be rest assured that a bacteria will never glide like a fish. Welcome to the world of very low Reynolds number.

For the ignorant world

Zapped

He is one cartoonist who has never disappointed me to date, he's smart intelligent and his paintings depict the shit we are into, and reminds us time and again that something is seriously wrong with this world. :)..something is really zappy bout him..check this cartoon out.

Did you find a Similarity solution yet??

You might be good in what you do...
You might be a good programmer...
You might be a good manager...
You might be a good Charted Accountant..
You might be a good Doctor..
You might be a great Politician...a ecologist etc etc
but a REAL MAN deals with Applied Math....there is nothing beyond it once you conquer it :)

PS: As Dr.K put it in his fluids class - balls and applied math go together :)

Glory Glory Man Utd!!!

After a disappointing derby loss recently, I never thought my team would put up such a show with arch rivals and present EPL leaders Arsenal in their last match which happened to be the round of a6s in the FA cup. The scoreline 4-0 says it all, with Rooney and Evra returning from suspensions it was looked a better team from the word go. Also with next match being away Champions league match with Lyon it made perfect sense when Alex made Hargreaves, Ronaldo and Gigs sit on the bench. The next match could be with the Blues in the Quarter Finals of the FA cup. And all I can say is BRING IT ON!!!----ONE UNITED

PS: It also gives us the edge now when we face Arsenal later during the end of the season...remember when Man Utd are in the chase to win consecutive EPLs its never over till the last day.

Feb the 23rd, 2008

No the worlds not going to end..no Armageddon...but a very important match is scheduled that day-23-02-08. Its between England and France, the English are in poor form but they have classy and seasoned players on the other hand the French have a very balanced functioning unit. Its going to be a interesting one-a nail biter. I hope its not as close as England's previous match which they won 23-18 with Italy. Dont at any cost miss this game . Its shaping up to be a very good 6-nations Rugby Tournament 2008.

A wonderful game, strong tactful game--Long Live Rugby.

:)Loss:(

note to the world :You don't know about real loss, 'cause it only occurs when you've loved something more than you love yourself. And I doubt you've ever dared to love anybody that much.-GWH

Becky's Walk into nothingNESS

Sometimes when all you want to remember is - the good things about a person....
Sometimes when all you want to remember are the good times...
Times-now- when you know that you might hurt the other person....
The best thing to do is...
Walk away far....so far that when you turn back and wait for eternity you still wont see HER
All you want is HER to be happy and keep smiling ALWAYS

You're a genius Becky. No one denies that. No one could possibly understand the depths of you

Becky: Oh feels like Sweet November :)

Nikis Bday gift 2008

With my Bday fast approaching I was thinking of gifting myself something that will remind me this Bday all my life. Usually I always gift my close friends something or the other but I never gift myself anything on my Bday. As a matter of fact I have bought just one jeans pant and a I guess a couple of t-shirts since my arrival to the USA. Its time that I cared more about myself :)than others has become my attitude.This egoistic approach in 2008 is scary at times. Anyways after giving it a lot of thought I have decided to gift myself this priceless book- Advanced Mathematical Models for Scientists and Engineers-Asymptotic Methods and Perturbation Theory by Bender and Orszag.
Cant wait to get my hands on it :)

Chota Recharge :)

---conversation----
frnd: niki man how u feeling..howz life treating you now?
me:When you think that weve used all our chances
And the chance to make everything right
Keep on making the same old mistakes
Makes untipping the balance so easy
living our lives on the edge
frnd: from this I conclude that you've got back to your old 100%
me: yup thats me...rem time waits for none :)
frnd: love your attitude
me: hee hee...thanks for checking..TC ciao byes

Really ElectriF(L)YING

I always had my eyes on Audi's, the BMWs and of course the MERCs but all that changed when I saw this beauty. To start with -its an engineering marvel. This is what cutting edge technology really is. What I'm about to reveal is a completely 100% electric car!!..so what there are already electric cars that have done really...but my argument is is there a electric car that-
-can reach 0-60 mph in less than 4 secs
-give a 135 mpg equivalent
-drive you for just 2cents a mile..i guess the answer is no.

The TESLA Roadster is really a revelation a real STANDOUT thats wipes out its competition -oops theres no competition :).

My addicTION

addiction- yes it is.....and now I'm sure Ill be hooked to this band for a long time to come-brilliant progressive stuff!!!

Heres a sampler

FaDe To BlAcK

Life it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else....

This was the first song I learnt as a band member of MRP 40 and till today is one of my fav :) and wat a bassie cliff was..PHEW!!!

Walk the talk

Its great to take a walk with your closest old friend. Rekindle all memories, laugh for all the stupid things you did together. And to this add a clear sky with stars everywhere, and gentle breeze- phew one word HEAVEN!!!. Also not to leave behind THE crazy, weird, unexpected confessions she is ready to make followed by big big laughter and then your confession round starts. Me being me a parallel brain was set up and I began to think deeply about WALKING!!
Common the most common physical exercise if (I can put it that way) is walking.
So I questioned myself what in an Engineering sense is walking??

Ans) Well for me its an efficient way of spending energy and getting work done, also its nothing but conservation of energy. Why does your feet/muscle (not sure what the exact name of the muscle that is involved in walking :( ) get tired after a long long walk, its because your muscle is the part that takes into account the vertical and horizontal loses int o account as you walk. The loss in PE is compensated by your muscles. Thats my understanding I might be wrong-do you have a better ans then please reply-adios!

Straight from the Gita

1)Instead of asking GOD why ME for all the troubles
YOU should ask
Why ME for the blessings
Always counts yoour blessings and not your trobles

2)Success should never come at the cost of hurting others.

3)To HURT is not an option :)

Stolen Lyrics

Face to face
We'll wake yet another day
With hope in our hearts
Embrace this shade of Grey
This pleasant shade of Grey :)

Shock-mathematically a sudden piece of perturbation

There are great mathematicians, and there are great physicists, there was and will always be a conflict between the two. With math you can prove anything and everything but your physics should support it, only then will it make sense to the common man.
One of the worlds greatest physicists had this to say----
"I dot believe in mathematics"
and this was said by none other than Albert Einstein.
But for me mathematics is the most original and greatest creation of human spirit :)

PS: If you know your math you will know the answer to this one--->

1)What is the fourier transform of exp^(x)..simple rt
try this
2)What is the fourier transform of exp^exp(x) :)

Reflectivity :)

In every adverse situation you have an equal or greater opportunity to learn.

Intermittent Smiles

Time does not wait for nobody
14 days filled with bliss
Time moved at its own fast pace
Sometimes all you need is time to freeze
A special thanks to all my friends who made this fortnight happen!!!
Miss you all

NOte: 2008 here I come :)..yipeeeeeeeeee

Partial -Differential -Life :)

People who know me would have heard me say that anything and everything in life is a grand mathematical setup.
Your own personal life is a delta function a Dirac Delta function think it over, you hit a peak and all of a sudden at times you hit rock bottom.
Your life is good peaceful happy behaves as a very good continuous/differentiable -analytic function till you hit a difficulty -mathematically you now have a singularity in the area of interest(Life).....a general solution exists for all of these problems/functions----to keep smiling
