To my old friend....

Sometimes you make me feel happy
sometimes you make me feel sad
You make me laugh at times
You make me cry at times
And you scare me at times
But still you are the one i can't resist

You are the one that showed me
the light on the surface of moon
You are the one that made me hear
the calmness amidst a violent tide
You are the one that made me feel
the pleasure in the air, on top of a peak

I loved a girl, out of my reach
you brought her, made us meet
I hated them, i can't dare to touch
you blew the heads off their bodies
I was scared watching a horror
You played pranks frightening me

Thank you dream, thanks for
everything you have given
And for staying awake,
all the time i slept............

The philosophy of one century is the common sense of the next

The philosophy of one century is the common sense of the next

This is one such quote that actually made some sense, infact lot of sense, in orkut's today's fortune archive. I sat upto spend my mid semester break on something and this shows up , leaving me in a state of serious thinking about the history of various scientific breakthroughs. Immediately i wanted to log this somewhere, like this place.
Speaking of 'log' I remember reading about the discovery of log[logarithm], which is one such invention that startled everyone who didnot know that a sequence of flip-flops could actually compute the value of 453876 x 182725 , now i seriously doubt if anyone know what the application of a log function is. Right in my school days i used to see my friends hating the exercises of computing multiplications and divisions using log-tables. But no one ever knew that such complicated operations turned out to be simple additions and subtractions. I was fascinated by the simplification offered by log-function. The person to be praised for this is the great mathematician john napier , he is such a fascinating personality that he got this idea like bolt from the blue. There was no history for log-function, he is the person who created it. All other things in mathematics are mostly developed progressively. Hats-off to that genius..........

Sweet little nanni..

It is quite evident that if you know a person beyond a certain 'stranger' limit, and have been in touch with him/her for a quite a long time, you must have hated him/her atleast a few number of times. It might be anyone like a relative, a friend or anyone. But there is one person in my life, and only one to be sure, whom I know pretty well [seen her from the days she couldn't walk or talk and now, she is a completely grown youngster.] and never lost contact with her. I have been talking to her all long. I never hated her, not even for a micro-second. Though we play pranks at each other all the time. Our conversations were never formal. Whenever I think of her or talk to her, I feel very nostalgic. I don't remember most of the stupid games we used to play in the childhood. In what ever situation I am, i try to have a chat with her[except for some times, when i overlook the tab i opened].....She is sweet little fatty[oops...nanni, nandita].....

When u know u r wrong, u r not anymore......

The worst disaster

It was 5 years back on Feb 1 2003 that seven human beings,
I donno their caste
I donno their country
I donno their gender
I donno their color
Still I owe them so much.....risking their life not for a breakthru in science but for showing, what might have been called 'unity', exists. I am very proud to look into sky and salute at them, where they still are present.

Dr. G Rama Krishna Reddy, PhD
My dad is a man, one who wants to start from no-where should definitely know about. He is a son of a clerk, who rejected him to take up math [his interestin subject] at his college level. Just becoz they had to pay for it, in commerce my dad got a free admission. so he was then forced to take up that. He completed his education and then started a degree college, with practically no experience at hand he started a college in a small building for which he had pay a rent. But as i said he is not an easy man. The idea blossomed now it developed to Sree Rama Krishna Degree College Autonomous. It now has three four storeyed buildings owned entirely by college, a state-of-art library building and a girl's hostel.Recent achievements of the college include "College with Potential for Excellence" by UGC [http://www.ugc.ac.in/notices/Press_release06CPE.pdf ] and NAAC accreditated 'A' [186th entry on http://naacindia.org/Colleges.asp?state=1 ]. He didnot rest with one success. He started Sree Rama Krishna P.G Centre, which also holds same position as the above. Hope i got one-millionth of my dad's determination and hard-work, definitely with his support I can dream and achieve of anything I want.

Darwin is intelligent, more in using words

"There is no fundamental difference between man and the higher animals in their mental faculties. The lower animals, like man, manifestly feel pleasure and pain, happiness, and misery."

"A mathematician is a blind man in a dark room looking for a black cat that doesn’t exist."

"I love fools’ experiments. I am always making them."

"False facts are highly injurious to the progress of science, for they often endure long; but false views, if supported by some evidence, do little harm, for every one takes a salutary pleasure in proving their falseness."

"In the struggle for survival, the fittest win out at the expense of their rivals because they succeed in adapting themselves best to their environment."

"Mathematics seems to endow one with something like a new sense."

"We can allow satellites, planets, suns, universe, nay whole systems of universes, to be governed by laws, but the smallest insect, we wish to be created at once by special act."

"I feel most deeply that this whole question of Creation is too profound for human intellect. A dog might as well speculate on the mind of Newton! Let each man hope and believe what he can."

"The slowest goat sees the last sunset last".

"Physiological experiment on animals is justifiable for real investigation, but not for mere damnable and detestable curiosity."

"It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but rather the one most responsive to change."

"When the principles of breeding and of inheritance are better understood, we shall not hear ignorant members of our legislature rejecting with scorn a plan for ascertaining by an easy method whether or not consanguineous marriages are injurious to man."
