Mentos "Dimag ki batti jalaa de" !!!

Have you all seen the latest advertisement by the Mentos.It shows a Monkey as slave of Donkey. Monkey is driving the donkey through the jungle. Donkey decides to take rest. Overthere, the monkey finds a "Mentos". It offers it to the donkey. But being egoistic, the donkey refuses. Monkey eats it, and runs away. And as its tagline says, "dimag ki batti jala de". While running, evolution of monkey to a man is shown. Man meets the donkey at same place and now, Man rules the donkey.


That's the funny part. But it could be used for learning as well. I assume our Indians as monkey, and developed nations like U.S.A, U.K. etc as donkeys. We just need to take some risks, some quick aggressive moves, some innovations and soon we will be developed as Men, as referred in the advertisement. Sooner or later, we would ruling them!
In the same way, we alliance students can be compared as monkeys! And IIM grads as donkeys! Don't worry. Let them be in their dreamy world. We just need to take some risks; we need to run bit faster, work a bit harder. And soon we will be at the top, with better salaries, better profiles.

And as I always say, we need to be a step ahead!

India into "bits n pieces"....

A question to you all.
How do you identify yourself as?
As an UP bhaiya, kannada, mallu guy, or as marathi?
Or as kayastha, kurmi, brahmin or as rajput?
Or you wanted yourself to be a part of hindu, muslim, christian or sikh community?
Unfortunately, most of us,don't think ourselves to be identified as INDIAN.For them, there state, there religion and there caste comes first.From political parties to media houses, every one is using this aspect of us, to gain personal mileage.I read an article in The Times of India and that really touched my soul.Yah,the article has a hindu perspective but still, it touched the key issues of India.I suggest you all to read this article and being the youth,we should be a step ahead in changing our society.Can we make India into as ONE!!!

KFC -- "Kentucky Fried Cruelty"

As soon as you enter Forum Mall, our taste buds gets flooded with a yummy feeling. Reason? KFC !!! Many of my friends, love to eat at KFC. Those who love chicken dishes, prepared in american style, can't resist KFC.But PETA has started an advertisement campaign against KFC. They have come up with very interesting billboards, print ads, posters, leaflets, stickers to spread awareness to boycott KFC globally.
PETA says,"KFC suppliers cram birds into huge waste-filled factories, breed and drug them to grow so large that they can’t even walk, and often break their wings and legs. At slaughter, the birds’ throats are slit and they are dropped into tanks of scalding-hot water—often while they are still conscious."
They raised this issue in 2001 and soon when they found that KFC is coming up with false promises to improve,they went a step ahead by using advetisement campaign. Here are some interesting ads by PETA.

Fastest Computer : A Myth

After the results, many of my friends would be feeling very low. But friends always believe in yourself. Every person has the world fastest computer, i.e. Your BRAIN. One just have to learn, how to use it effectively.India may have launched itself on the world's map of raw computing power with the Eka supercomputer from the Tata group, but even the world's fastest supercomputer cannot match the processing speed of your brain. Scientists reveal that the brain is made up of about one trillion cells with 100 trillion connections between those cells. Estimates put the brain as capable of handling 10 quadrillion instructions per second. Now compare that to the processing speed of the world's fastest supercomputer from IBM at over 475 teraflops (or 475 trillion calculations per second).
What's more interesting is that the world's truly fastest supercomputer - RIKEN's MDGrape-3 will probably never be officially crowned with that title, simply because it is so specialised that it can't run the software (the Linpack benchmark) used to officially rank computing speed. MDGrape-3 is the first machine to break the petaflop barrier - that is 1 quadrillion calculations per second - and is three times faster than the currently-ranked fastest computer in the world, IBM's BlueGene/L.
RIKEN developed the supercomputer along with Intel, and SGI in 2006 to carry out molecular dynamics simulations. In developing drugs, pharmaceutical companies have to analyse thousands of chemical compounds to find out how they will affect the protein-bonding structures in the human body. What takes most computers hours or days to analyse takes MDGrape-3 a few seconds. The functionality is invaluable in drug research since it can drastically cut research time involved in the development of new cures. A subsidiary of pharmaceutical giant Merck has already booked time on the machine.

So friends, don't worry much about results. You might be a RIKEN's MDGrape-3 computer, and world might not be ready enough to judge you, by their officially used ranking methodology. You may be a step ahead from all these generalities. Be confident, work hard, and prove your metal.
