Back to work

About 3 weeks have passed. You made big plans to spend your holidays. "Not a minute to waste" was the motto before you started. A lot of books to read. So you carry them back home. The days have passed, very quickly it seems. The books remain as they were not being turned by a page, having found a layer of dust as its only companion. Time was well spent but, every minute of it "wasted" in relation to the original plans. A time well wasted we must say. But the nearer comes the end the more you realize "the entire time you have being wasting time". That's a common behavior you find among all the adolescents.

But we always forget the law of the time, which goes on something like, "The amount of work done is irrespective of the time left". This is found to be true in most cases (All ideal cases, but since we live in a practical world, this theory doesn't apply entirely to any job. It ceases to exist as the time left decreases thus forcing a person to work thus proving the theory. I guess this is one of those paradoxes which the scientists say you can never solve).

Switching back to the topic this "Holiday Wasted" feeling is quite common. The moment you start getting that feeling consider it your rebirth. In today's world most of the induhviduals have this feeling. But the dudes aren't infected by these induhvidulas and are proud to boast how they wasted their time. probably that is why they are called dudes. But a induhvidual sometimes tries to acta a dude and he/she too starts boasting. But inside they are full of disgust. There is no easy way of identifying name. So be careful and watch out from these people if you are a dude.

But then everyone considers him/her to be a dude today.

Beginning of the odyssey

As Mr. President begins his work in office today I couldn't resist to make comeback. Its been days and it was high time I wrote something. Never in history I guess such an event was given so much hype by the news channels, especially the hindi ones (not talking of INDIA TV). So, I guess it is a new theorem, the more the coverage the more the pressure to perform. Not that the pressure to perform is any less on this guy. But as he said, the power to deliver is with him. Change is here, and all he needs is he support. Hope he goes all the way. Obama has been always compared to Lincoln and even took the oath to office on the same bible which Lincoln had used. So all the best guy. Hope you have a good time out there.

P.S.:- It's good to be back.

The Indain media

Which is the greatest competitor to the documentary channels like NatGeo, Discovery and Animal Planet? The Indian media. I didn't have much of a chance to watch all the foreign news channels, but I can assume safely that they will be better than our hindi ones. The prime time special on news channels, has to do something of documentary type, like the world ending, a murderer being revealed exclusively and sometimes about the mummies of Egypt.

Every time India wins, be it about cricket or recently at the Olympics, the news is like all over the screen and the commentator screams in that irritating voice. And nowadays the subtitle feature. The words being printed in bold while it is being shouted. Great directorial ideas actually. All the channels, have applied the same concept these days.

I have no personal vendetta against IndiaTV but it really pisses me off. Criss Angel is one of the common guys appearing, the video perhaps being stolen from youtube or something. And what really adds to the disgust is there shouting to disclose the mystery, when its already all over youtube. I had sent them a mail to stop displaying such things when its allready on youtube, but they neither replied nor stopped in their act.

So, now its up to some media regulatory board to stop such channels.

P.S.:- Is it just me or are the news channels really increasing exponentially?

Wanted : Some real physics laws

So another movie of Miss Jolie and raving reviews later, it time for me to watch it on my small screen. For intro purposes, IMDB has rated Wanted at 7.3. I think it is a little bit higher than mine.

I learned one thing in watching such movies. Never think. Watch and forget. Better leave your brain at home while you go to such movies. One scene which really appealed to me was the scene where FOX(Angelina Jolie) shoots the bullet in a circle, killing everyone and herself as well. It defies all the rules of physics. Talking about physics, I never knew you can bend bullets like that. But then you never know a lot of things they show in movies.

Getting back to the scene I was talking about, thanks to my brother for pointing this out, it defies all Newtonian mechanics. According to inertia of motion, the bullet should have continued in a curved path endlessly. But it stopped right after it hit Fox's head. Anyone knows the reason? Simple. The other heads were empty. only Jolie has got a brain.

That makes her a deadly combination, don't you think? Beauty with brains.
