Golden period of life is Childhood.. and everyone loves childhood time most.... No worries of life.. No tension of career.. No need to be responsible.. No need to behave in manner all the time.. No need to be so understanding.. Everyone just take care of you.. Ask for what you want.. ;)
On Sunday I use to wake up early in the morning just because I don’t like to miss my serials Shaktiman, Chandrakanta, Ramayana, Mahabharata, Ali baba challis chor and the other one alif laila.. He he he he.. After coming from school in noon time the cartoon captain planet, scooby doo, tom and jerry and then ballu and a lot more..
All the time masti with friends.. Tease people and friends.. Do something naughty and when someone get it … then hide and seek play.. I used to be happy like anything when mummy or papa bought me new compass box or water bottle or lunch box.. Love to drawing.. And those colors.. Really life is full with all colors in childhood..
That thing has different happiness when play in open playground.. And get dirty in that.. Then mummy screams at you.. “ mitti me nah k aate ho”.. J When our friends got good marks we used to get happy with them.. there was no jealousy or competition.. never properly ate food in life.. all the time something with us to eat.. chalte jao khate jao..
Celebration of Holi means the fun.. :D pichkari full of water.. And all that.. Love it.. When first time I had used pen instead of pencil.. and had written without mistakes(no need to use eraser) I had shown that things minimum 50 times to my parents that see how I had written it.. Clean and neat.. Tell again and again to parents that What had done in school.. Repeat our self until parents give proper reply.. I loved the movie Chillar Party..
Love to take participate in all the events.. Whatever it was Garba, Dance, Drama, Singing, Dancing, any competition.. That was really the Golden time.. no one can get that Happiness by giving any amount of money.. because childhood is the Golden period of everyone’s life.. J
Don't lose Hope in life.. And when ever you face any failure see this video and the hard work.. Nothing is possible without hard work.. Practice makes man perfect.. This is the everyday hard work to get the success.. sometimes we need a little push in life.. and to get motivate is like.. getting the "Jannon (passion)" to do that thing any how.. I love its music most :)
This video I love the most.. To make the change in a great manner and to do the thing.. Which is not even possible..
This is the Story of the great person.. we all know him.. But may be we doesn't know that what this person had suffered in life.. and still never lose the strength to do something.. hats off...
I always used to think that I am not lucky and wrong things happens with me only.. and someone made me realize that there are lots of person who doesn't have hands or legs or paralyzed .. and we are lucky enough because we do have food to eat.. and a house to sleep.. and we are able to do our own work.. so we are the lucky one in this life.. and see how people live.. himate marda to madade khuda.. This person has something which we do not have.. strength to live the life.. Understand the value of it..
Sab kuch khone ke bad bhi sab vapis aa sakta he.. Nasib bhi unka sath deta he jo mahenat karna jante he..
I have always seen in movie that traffic jam is very bad situation and I have never realized its seriousness until I faced it.. When I have seen the movie Nayak and its scene about traffic jam and the situation how serious that scene was about the situation of traffic jam.. I thought areeeey! itna jyada bhi thodi na hota he!!!! And the time come.. when this thing happened to me..I was coming from home. 2 hours had passed and I was in the middle of my way coming back and I just got stuck in the traffic jam for 4 hours .. because of some Rathyatra in the city.. Traffic was jam all over the city.. People were not having the drinking water with them.. and of course not every one keep food with them in journey where I was stuck was near four cross roads.. there was one lari and that person was having some water pouch and snacks.. which got finished in some time.. may be he wouldn't have expected that his all things got in this much less time..
kids were feeling so bored and the temperature was going down although it was the evening time.. there was one family in the bus and they had train to catch for Kashmir for their vacation from ahmedabad.. they were also stuck in the jam.. when they realized that they are going to miss the train they leaved the bus and was searching for the another vehicle to reach ahmedabad.. but I do not think that they would have catch their train because we were in the middle of the city and jam was around 10 to 12 kilometers..
some people were searching for water , some for food.. Any person didnt come to handle the situation until it was too late.. there were 3 ambulances stuck around my bus.. and I am sure that some one had lost nearest person to them as they couldn't pass the jam.. and the person didn't get that medical service..It was too hard for me to handle their voices because I was feeling their pain in their voice..
some people got their blood pressure high.. and some people were feeling suffocation.. so many were on their phone talking to others while some got their phone battery law.. some people just came out of their vehicle and was spending time in masti and timepass.. while some were tense about the situation they were going to face because of that jam(as they were late for something).. some one was trying to convince the other person for postponed the meeting while some one was trying to convince the one who was waiting.. some were trying to hold on and handle the situation.. some were sad because they missed some thing.. while some were happy that they got stuck.. and my family was worried about me that when I will reach to my place.. and like my family so many people were worried about someone who was there in that jam..
After trying 3 hours they had started clearing the traffic by sending it out of the city.. my bus had came through the longest way .. and I had completed my 4 hour journey in 9 hours.. because of the traffic jam and the way my bus had taken.. I was even lucky that I got stuck for 4 hours in that jam but that traffic got the whole night to cleared.. and the next day newspaper had the news about that jam..
May be it was not all what I had seen.. but I am afraid to imagine how many things can happen because of any situation like this.. We all are connected to so many people.. and we cant even imagine what is happening with the one whom we love..and how one's life get affected by other.. how many life were affected at that day I don't know.. How many good or bad things happened that day I don't know.. how many lose something during that time and how many earn some thing.. no idea.. But I realized that what is traffic jam and how serious this thing is.. and yeah if any delay can give happiness to someone its good to hear but when some lose something or someone important that is hard to accept..
Finally....... Some one has tried to change everything about Gujarati cinema.. I am really feeling proud about it.. believe or not.. But today's audience(Gujarati) Doesn't like to watch gujarati movie I mean specially young generation or the people who live in cities.. But after watching the promo I am really exited about it.. and waiting for the release date..
The amazing thing about this movie is that "They had completed movie shooting just in 23 days and used 32 different locations.. :) "
This movie is not just about the love.. yeah it is the common topic but everyone knows that its a truth and people are really crazy about going to USA.. I even have seen the people(specially patels) who is having lots of money.. and never need to work in their life again.. if they want they can live like king.. but still they are crazy about going to USA..
This movie has the best rock song "Pankhida".. sung by Suraj Jagan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suraj_Jagan).. The original song is "Pankhida re udi jajo pavagadh re.."
Kevi Rite Jaish is all set to feature songs sung by Roop Kumar Rathod, suraj Jagan, Parthiv Ghohil , Mehul Surti, Aishwarya Majumdar,Dhvanit Thaker, Aman Lekhadia and Vishvesh Parmar..
The second song of this movie Aa Safar..
Everything about this movie is Fantastic.. The photography, the level of thinking, the idea, songs, creativity, cinematography(Used Red Mx Camera for the first time in Gujarati cinema),the people who worked in the film or work for film each and everything.. They had thought of every aspect while making the film.. and the fantastic thing about this movie is that the people who has participated for this movie are almost youngsters.. One idea can change your life.. and I think this is the idea going to change everything about Gujarati cinema and people's thinking about gujarati movies.. yeah there are some good gujarati movies.. But those movies didn't attract everyone.. The last movie which was in theater for months was "Desh re joya dada pardesh joya" as I remember.. But there were specific crowd left which were not attracted by the film..
This movie promo is really like any Hindi movie promo..And I have never seen this type of promo of Gujarati movie.. and yeah heroine of this movie is also not only in chaniyacholi and Hero not in kediya or in any typical dress.. yeah our traditional culture is good and we love that type of clothes..but really I mean come on who wears that type of clothes all time even in gujarat..
But I think this movie is going to rockkkkkkkkkk.... These people even did Good advertisement in every manner.. and yeah I have seen that the people who just watch to see Hollywood movie as they think that not every Bollywood movies are good.. they also like the movie promo and they are going to watch this movie and listen songs of this movie.. :D (which I like most) that It has changed people's mentality already ;)
In south, movies of their own language got hit like anything.. I am just waiting for that time in Gujarat.. and su khabar apna tyan pan koi Rajnikant thai jay.. ;) so Gujju rockkkkksss.. All the best to movie..
This is what I feel about the movie.. and I am sure everyone who is watching the movie promo feeling the same.. and if u like it then please share your thoughts about the movie on the official page.. so they get to know about our opinions .. https://www.facebook.com/KeviRiteJaish

Motorola is going to shut down its cloud storage service – Zumo Drive, as the company gears up to launch an improved cloud storage service called MotoCast.
The new Motorola cloud service, MotoCast, is likely to provide instant access to users’ PC content from their smartphones, tablets or another PC. MotoCast will also allow users to stream their own music, videos, photos and files.
Zumo Drive is available for a variety of platforms including Android, iOS, Windows and Linux. Zumo Drive users enjoy 2GB of free cloud storage.
According to reports, Motorola has begun notifying its users regarding closure of Zumo Drive services. Motorola has asked users to take a back up of data as Zumo Drive shuts down next month. To download Motorola’s new cloud storage service, users need to visit www. Mymotocast.com.
Earlier, HTC had also announced closing its cloud storage service HTC Sense. The company has given users until April 30 to keep hold of their data as the company has decided to delete them.
Explaining reason behind the move, HTC said the htcsense.com is "undergoing a renovation". "Until the new services are ready, features previously available on HTCSense.com will be shutting down," a letter on the site said. However, HTC also promises to keep users updated about the launch of “new and improved” cloud storage service.
“When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I’ve got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.
Suddenly I didn’t know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly. She didn’t seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?
I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn’t talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Jane. I didn’t love her anymore. I just pitied her!
With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company. She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Jane so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.
The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn’t have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Jane. When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again.
In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn’t want anything from me, but needed a month’s notice before the divorce. She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month’s time and she didn’t want to disrupt him with our broken marriage.
This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day. She requested that every day for the month’s duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.
I told Jane about my wife’s divorce conditions. . She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully.
My wife and I hadn’t had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mommy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don’t tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.
On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn’t looked at this woman carefully for a long time. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her.
On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me. On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn’t tell Jane about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.
She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.
Suddenly it hit me… she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.
Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it’s time to carry mom out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day.
But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn’t noticed that our life lacked intimacy. I drove to office…. jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind…I walked upstairs. Jane opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Jane, I do not want the divorce anymore.
She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Jane, I said, I won’t divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn’t value the details of our lives, not because we didn’t love each other anymore. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart. Jane seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away. At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I’ll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.
That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed -dead. My wife had been fighting CANCER for months and I was so busy with Jane to even notice. She knew that she would die soon and she wanted to save me from the whatever negative reaction from our son, in case we push through with the divorce.— At least, in the eyes of our son—- I’m a loving husband….
The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves.
So find time to be your spouse’s friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage!
Photoshop Touch is one of six new Touch Apps that Adobe has released for Android tablets running Honeycomb. It is designed to bring many of Photoshop's most popular features to Android tablets, allowing creative professionals to integrate these tablets into their mobile workflow.
The Photoshop Touch app is no replacement for the desktop version of Photoshop, but it does bring many popular Photoshop tools, filters, and effects to Honeycomb tablets with a finger-friendly touch interface. Photoshop Touch connects to Adobe's Creative Cloud so you can move your work back and forth between the tablet and the desktop. You can also share images via email and Facebook, though sadly there was no Twitter option.
The interface stays out of the way, with tools around both the edges and top of the screen occupied by the selection tools, adjustments, effects, and other miscellaneous items. Icons and menus are large and finger-friendly, and double tapping a layer will take you into a 3D view of all the layers in the current project.
The selection tools are limited only by the accuracy of the tip of your finger, unless you opt for a capacitive stylus or have a tablet with an active digitizer such as the Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet or the AT&T HTC Jetstream. Photoshop Touch will take advantage of the pressure sensitivity of active digitizers, although it is the only one of the Touch Apps currently able to do so. Working with the selection tools does take some getting used to, but I was able to successfully replace a coworker's head in a photo taken from the tablet with a cow's head downloaded from Google Images in just a few minutes.
Several great interactive tutorials are included to help you get used to the interface and familiarize yourself with all of the tools available. Most of them are also finger friendly, but drawing or painting with a finger can get awkward quickly. When painting the background of one of the tutorials, the tip of my finger got sore just from rubbing back and forth over the glass. I recommend getting a stylus if you plan on using the app for extensive periods of drawing or painting.
Manipulating images is easy: You use two fingers to pinch and zoom or pan around. Zooming and panning came in handy when trying to make small and accurate selections. There was just a hint of lag in the process though, with the zooming starting just after I would have expected.
One of the main restrictions you'll run into when using Photoshop Touch vs. the desktop version of Photoshop is the difference in the way the projects are stored. Photoshop Touch uses a new file type called PSDX, which can be imported into CS5 with a plug in. PSDX files are limited to 1600 by 1600 pixels and 16 layers. Text is rasterized once you finish adding it, so it can be deleted, but not edited afterwards. Effects also don't remain live, and while they can be undone, they can't be changed.
These limitations are to keep the performance in line with what current tablets are capable of. Even so, many of the effects and adjustments can take several seconds to process, and zooming or panning on images felt the slightest bit laggy to me.
All in all, Photoshop Touch provides a wide array of useful and easy-to-use tools for manipulating images on the go.
Memristor circuits lead to ultrasmall PCs. Intel and AMD unleash massively multicore CPUs. Samsung TVs respond to your every gesture. These and other developing technologies will fundamentally change the way you think about--and use--technology.
The Next Big thing? The memristor, a microscopic component that can "remember" electrical states even when turned off. It's expected to be far cheaper and faster than flash storage. A theoretical concept since 1971, it has now been built in labs and is already starting to revolutionize everything we know about computing, possibly making flash memory, RAM, and even hard drives obsolete within a decade.
The memristor is just one of the incredible technological advances sending shock waves through the world of computing. Other innovations in the works are more down-to-earth, but they also carry watershed significance. From the technologies that finally make paperless offices a reality to those that deliver wireless power, these advances should make your humble PC a far different beast come the turn of the decade.
Division of the Vedas :- - Rigveda - Yajurveda - Sama-Veda - Atharva-Veda
The Rigved is the oldest extant Indic text. It is a collection of 1,028 Vedic Sanskrit hymns and 10,600 verses in all, organized into ten books. The hymns are dedicated to Rigvedic deities.The books were composed by poets from different priestly groups over a period of several centuries, commonly dated to the period of roughly the second half of the 2nd millennium BCE in the Punjab.
The Yajurveda is the Yajurveda Samhita consists of archaic prose mantras and also in part of verses borrowed and adapted from the Rigveda. Its purpose was practical, in that each mantra must accompany an action in sacrifice but, unlike the Samaveda, it was compiled to apply to all sacrificial rites.There are two major groups of recensions of this Veda, known as the "Black" (Krishna) and "White" (Shukla) Yajurveda (Krishna and Shukla Yajurveda respectively). While White Yajurveda separates the Samhita from its Brahmana (the Shatapatha Brahmana), the e Black Yajurveda intersperses the Samhita with Brahmana commentary. Of the Black Yajurveda four major recensions survive (Maitrayani, Katha, Kapisthala-Katha, Taittiriya).
The Samaveda consists of 1549 stanzas, taken almost entirely (except for 78 stanzas) from the Rigveda.Like the Rigvedic stanzas in the Yajurveda, the Samans have been changed and adapted for use in singing. Some of the Rigvedic verses are repeated more than once. Including repetitions, there are a total of 1875 verses numbered in the Samaveda recension translated by Griffith. Two major recensions remain today, the Kauthuma/Ranayaniya and the Jaiminiya.
The Artharvaveda is the text 'belonging to the Atharvan and Angirasa poets. It has 760 hymns, and about 160 of the hymns are in common with the Rigveda Most of the verses are metrical, but some sections are in prose. It was compiled around 900 BCE, although some of its material may go back to the time of the Rigveda, and some parts of the Atharva-Veda are older than the Rig-Veda though not in linguistic form.
Unlike the other three Vedas, the Atharvanaveda has less connection with sacrifice. Its first part consists chiefly of spells and incantations, concerned with protection against demons and disaster, spells for the healing of diseases, for long life and for various desires or aims in life.
The second part of the text contains speculative and philosophical hymns.
Aryabhatta (476-550 A.D.), one of the world’s greatest mathematician-astronomer .
It contains mathematical and astronomical hypothesis that have been discovered to be quite accurate in contemporary mathematics. For example, he wrote that if 4 is added to 100 and then multiplied by 8 then added to 62,000 then divided by 20,000 the answer will be equal to the circumference of a circle of diameter twenty thousand. This calculates to 3.1416 close to the actual value Pi (3.14159). But his greatest donation has to be zero, known as the "Shunya" in his times. His other works include theorems on trigonometry, arithmetic, algebra, quadratic equations and the sine table. The place-value system, first seen in the 3rd century Bakhshali Manuscript, was clearly in place in his work. While he did not use a symbol for zero, the French mathematician Georges Ifrah explains that knowledge of zero was implicit in Aryabhata's place-value system as a place holder for the powers of ten with null coefficients. However, Aryabhata did not use the Brahmi numerals. Continuing the Sanskritic tradition from Vedic times, he used letters of the alphabet to denote numbers, expressing quantities, such as the table of sines in a mnemonic form.
The Shakti Pithas are places of worship consecrated to the goddess Shakti or Parvati or Sati or Durga, the female principal of Hinduism and the main deity of the Shakta sect. They are sprinkled throughout the Indian subcontinent.
This goddess Parvati/Lalita, the goddess of power is the complete incarnation of Adi parashakti, has three main forms, which are known as Durga, goddess of strength and valour, and with Mahakali, goddess of destruction of the evil and Goddess Gowri, the goddess of goodness.
In the Satya Yuga, King Daksha(father of Sati) performed a yagna with a desire to take revenge on Lord Shiva. Daksha was angry because his daughter Dakshayani also known as Sati had married God Shiva against his wish. Daksha invited all the deities to the yagna except for Shiva and Shakti. The fact that she was not invited did not deter Shakti from attending the yagna. She had expressed her desire to attend to Shiva who had tried his best to dissuade her from going. Shiva eventually allowed her to go escorted by his followers.
Daksha insulted Shiva. Shakti was unable to bear her father's insults toward her husband, so Sati jumped into the fire at the Yagna place. Enraged at the insult and the injury, Shiva destroyed Daksha's sacrifice, cut off Daksha's head, and later replaced it with that of a male goat as he restored him to life. Still immersed in grief, he picked up the remains of Sati's body, and danced the dance of destruction through the Univers (Tandav nritya). The other gods intervened to stop this dance, and the Vishnu 's weapon, or Sudarshana Chakra, cut through the corpse of Shakti. The various parts of the body fell at several spots all through the Indian subcontinent and formed sites which are known as Shakti Peethas today. At all Shakti Peethas, the Goddess Shakti is accompanied by Lord Bhairava (a manifestation of Lord Shiva).
When I have seen the movie "Rang de basanti".. uska end dekh k mujhe laga tha k kisi bhi chiz ko leke hamari county k log iss tarah se jagrit ho k nahi ladenge..par I am really very much socked k aaj hamara pura desh ak ho k Brastachar k khilaf ki iss ladai me Anna ji k sath he.. sahi me hats of to Anna ji k unhone pure desh ko ak dhage me bandh lia he.. jahan koi alag nahi he.. har dharm k, har jati k har tarah k log iss ladai me annaji k sath he..koi cast alag nahi he.. I am really proud to be an Indian.. And the main thing is that k this problem is about us.. Common people.. Mujhe lagata tha k hame sehan karne ki adat ho gai he.. yahan har roj kuch naya hota he.. aur hum do din me uss chiz k hisab se jine lagte he..kisi ak akele se insan se ye dunia nahi badalti na chize badalti he.. par aaj usi ak insan ki koshish ne ye rang dikhaya he.. jahan har koi sab kuch bhul k Annaji k support me he.. har age k log he vahan.. log apni job, apni study, family sab chhod k vahan bethe hue he.. but seriously "Don't try Indians patiece".. May be kabhi Annaji ne bhi nahi socha hoga na to kabhi kisi Indian ne k hamara desh sirf ak avaz ban k gunj uthega without any Violence..
A nano computer that usesDNA(deoxyribonucleic acids) to store information and perform complex calculations.
In 1994, University of Southern California computer scientist Leonard Adelman suggested that DNA could be used to solve complex mathematical problems. Adelman found a way to harness the power of DNA to solve the Hamiltonian path problem , whose solution required finding a path from start to end going through all the points only once.
Each city was encoded as its own DNA sequence (DNA sequence consists of a series of nucleotides represented by the letters A, T, G, C).
The DNA sequences were set to replicate and create trillions of new sequences based on the initial input sequences in a matter of seconds (called DNA hybridization). The theory holds that the solution to the problem was one of the new sequence strands. By process of elimination, the correct solution would be obtained.
Adelman's experiment is regarded as the first example of true nanotechnology
The main benefit of using DNA computers to solve complex problems is that different possible solutions are created all at once. This is known as parallel processing. Humans and most electronic computers must attempt to solve the problem one process at a time (linear processing). DNA itself provides the added benefits of being acheap, energy-efficient resource.
In a different perspective, more than 10 trillion DNA molecules can fit into an area no larger than 1 cubic centimeter. With this,a DNA computer could hold 10 terabytes of data and perform 10 trillion calculations at a time.
The Jantar Mantar in New Delhi is a hot favourite of the average tourist in the summer. But since 5 April 2011, the astronomical observation site has become a focus of an anti-corruption campaign that has never been seen before, thanks to Anna Hazare. After decades of utter frustration, this one man, a veteran Gandhian, has emerged as the champion for tackling the menace of corruption. His crusade is a measure of the pent-up anger, especially among the young, springing from the manner in which politicians of all hues are taking the country for a ride through misuse of office and naked corruption. With the gap between the haves and have-nots widening, there is a sense of frustration among the diminishing tribe of honest Indians which is ready to explode.
Over the past six decades, the four pillars of democracy, the legislature, judiciary, executive and the press, have all developed serious problems in India. The rule of law stands subverted and moral values seriously eroded. The civil rights of women and children suffer blatant violations. Daily newspapers are replete with news of rape, dowry-deaths, trafficking, abduction and murder. The weak, the elderly and those living alone are robbed and killed every day. The police authorities prefer to look the other way. Attempts to lodge complaints with them are simply stonewalled unless some activist take the cudgels of justice in their hands. Members of the hallowed corridors of the law courts have succumbed to the temptations of underhand deals. Shanti Bhushan, a leading lawyer, claimed that half of the 16 supreme court chief justices before whom he had appeared were corrupt.
Newspaper owners and managers are known to strike deals with corporate bosses to give them favourable coverage through "paid news". Schools openly arm-twist parents to part with hefty sums of money before admitting children to their portals and euphemistically call it a "donation". Indeed no receipt is given for this transaction. While the government feigns helplessness, the practice gains acceptance.
Most of the emerging middle-class's entrepreneurs are blinded by their desire to get rich quickly, by hook or by crook. Their conscience does not prick them when they resort to falsification, telling lies, fraudulent practices, cheating and adulteration. Dodging taxes in the name of tax planning is smart business. Even godly men and religious preachers are embroiled in corruption and scandals of various types. The country has an abysmal record of penalising offenders who have someone to protect.
Hazare, a social worker, has been demanding that the government enact a comprehensive anti-corruption law and draft a citizen's ombudsman bill, or Lokpal bill. He looks to have won his battle, so has announced that he will break his fast on Saturday. India must fully embrace his plan to root out the cancer of corruption. Otherwise, this climate of economic hardship, with high food prices and rising unemployment, could become a catalyst for political turmoil of the sort seen elsewhere in the world, with even more serious consequences not only for India but also for the rest of the world. The Facebook youth of India might just wake up.
String theory is a developing theory in particle physics that attempts to reconcile quantum mechanics and general relativity. It is a contender for the theory of everything (TOE), a manner of describing the known fundamental forces and matter in a mathematically complete system. The theory has yet to make testable experimental predictions, which a theory must do in order to be considered a part of science.
Five major string theories were formulated. The main differences among them were the number of dimensions in which the strings developed and their characteristics; all of them appeared to be correct, however. In the mid 1990s a unification of all previous superstring theories, called M-theory, was proposed, which asserted that strings are really 1-dimensional slices of a 2-dimensional membrane vibrating in 11-dimensional space.
A parallel universe or alternative reality is a hypothetical self-contained separate reality coexisting with one's own. A specific group of parallel universes is called a "multiverse", although this term can also be used to describe the possible parallel universes that constitute physical reality. While the terms "parallel universe" and "alternative reality" are generally synonymous and can be used interchangeably in most cases, there is sometimes an additional connotation implied with the term "alternative reality" that implies that the reality is a variant of our own. The term "parallel universe" is more general, without any connotations implying a relationship, or lack of relationship, with our own universe. A universe where the very laws of nature are different – for example, one in which there are no relativistic limitations and the speed of light can be exceeded – would in general count as a parallel universe but not an alternative reality. The correct quantum mechanical definition of parallel universes is "universes that are separated from each other by a single quantum event."
One of the first Sci-Fi examples is John Wyndham's Random Quest about a man who, on awaking after a laboratory accident, finds himself in a parallel universe where World War II never happened with consequences for his professional and personal life, giving him information he can use on return to his own universe.
Sometimes the parallel universe bears no historical relationship to any other world; as in the novel Raft by Stephen Baxter, which posits a reality where the gravitational constant is much larger than in our universe. (Note, however, that Baxter explains later in Vacuum Diagrams that the protagonists in Raft are descended from people who came from the Xeelee Sequence universe.)
One motif is that the way time flows in a parallel universe may be very different, so that a character returning to one might find the time passed very differently for those he left behind
science:
new dimensions” more commonly — and more accurately — refer to additional coordinate axes, beyond the three spatial axes with which we are familiar. By proposing travel along these extra axes, which are not normally perceptible, the traveler can reach worlds that are otherwise unreachable and invisible.
1884, Edwin A. Abbott wrote the seminal novel exploring this concept called Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions. It describes a world of two dimensions inhabited by living squares, triangles, and circles, called Flatland, as well as Pointland (0 dimensions), Lineland (1 dimension), and Spaceland (three dimensions) and finally posits the possibilities of even greater dimensions. Isaac Asimov, in his foreword to the Signet Classics 1984 edition, described Flatland as "The best introduction one can find into the manner of perceiving dimensions."
The multiverse (or meta-universe, metaverse) is the hypothetical set of multiple possible universes (including the historical universe we consistently experience) that together comprise everything that exists: the entirety of space, time, matter, and energy as well as the physical laws and constants that describe them. The term was coined in 1895 by the American philosopher and psychologist William James.The various universes within the multiverse are sometimes called parallel universes.
The structure of the multiverse, the nature of each universe within it and the relationship between the various constituent universes, depend on the specific multiverse hypothesis considered. Multiverses have been hypothesized in cosmology, physics, astronomy, religion, philosophy, transpersonal psychology and fiction, particularly in science fiction and fantasy. In these contexts, parallel universes are also called "alternative universes", "quantum universes", "interpenetrating dimensions", "parallel dimensions", "parallel worlds", "alternative realities", and "alternative timelines", among others.
