Open your Eyes - 2

I was really ashamed wen one of my teachers told me tht there are many students who dnt even read daily newspapers..
While talking to another teacher.. wat she said was more shocking..
many of her students dont even knw the name of our external affairs minister??
Many of them dnt know the full forms of UDF, LDF,PAN, PIN code, etc..
She also pointed out tht many pf her students believed tht India is a member of the European Union...("Really shocking rit ....")
How many of you guys can tell me today's date without even thinking for a second... If you can, then believe tht you are one among the best, coz more than 2/3rd of the guys cant..

Open your eyes - 1

Part - ONE

Yesterday evening, I was wonderin what to write in my blog. Suddenly an incident tht
happened last week popped up in my mind.. so i thought i ll share tht with you..
I met one of my old school pals at a relatives marriage. To my surprise he is working as a
Probationary officer in a bank (wow.. nowadays a govt job is m).. you may be thinking why i
am surprised to hear tht..

Yes, the reason is very simple, coz wen he was studying in the tenth standard, he was the
only student who made a hatrick failure in all his English model exams. He was a such a lazy
fellow, who always made me do his record works and in the end paid me very generously..(he
used to buy me some bakery foods..).

Somehow he got a second class and then he joined some govt school for his plus two.. With a
five figured rank in Kerala entrance, he somehow got an admission in a self financing
college.. I donno why tis guy took elect & commn. ..hmmm.. u knww... rit...
i myself donno how i got saved from those 59 bullets(..hee.. no.of subjects..).

Anyways,he completed his B.tech bt sadly dint get placed anywhere..
okk.. bt he wasnt sad.. he applied for some govt. tests, and got placed in a reputed bank..

I knw.. first thing tht comes to your mind is tht.. "Ohh.. it was his luck.." rit??
Bt my dear frnds.. his luck alone was nt the reason..

Do anyone knw how he cracked the exam??

I ll tell you the answer.. he was a guy who always studied things in a qualitative manner
rather than quantitatively (..lik most of us do).. so we scored good marks, bt he dint.. Bt
he understood many things and sadly we dint..

He was a good reader(At school, i used to see him every morning, reading some newspaper in
the gate keepers room..nt bcoz we dnt ve a library.. bt it will be opend only by 9:30 am)
..and so he had a great knowledge on the general things happenin around us..

And I knw..if i ask you which was the toughest section for you in the bank test.. you will
say the General Knowledge section.. am i rit??

Let us ask ourselves, to how much detail did we observe things..for example..
* What was the color of the shirt worn by our electronics sir??
* Wat is the registration no. of our Principals car??
i knw its a black lancer(don't stare..I was talking abt the principal of SCT collg of Engg..).. bt
wat is its no.??
* Which branch is next to ur class?
* Which was the last notice tht appeared in ur notice board??
* Who was the Chief guest of our last Annual fest?
* How may working days are there in an academic year?

i knw u all r sitting idle.. a person who has a widely open eyes and ears only can answer these questions..

Now the smile in your face is simply coz you cant answer these things.. rit??
yaar.. this is the truth.. we dont knw these small things..

(will be contd..)

Be Proud to be Malayali

Here i m goin to speak about a malayali, born in Kochi in 1949, graduated in science,and worked as a bank officer in the early days of his career...

and then he joined the IPS in 1975...

Any guess??

ok.. fine...

His name is Radha Vinod Raju, the head of the newly formed National Investigation Agency(NIA) by home minister P.Chidamabaram.

He has a vast experience in handling terrorism and those f***ing terrorists..

He was the DIG of South Kashmir and then he became the IG of Jammu region...

Woww... u knw.. afterall we all dont even dare to work in Jammu and Kashmir...

pinna alley.. avdathey police departmentil..
entammo...

he is a real tuf guy...

I think his career graph doesnt ve a downfall..

He then joined the CBI in 1983..thts another great thing..

U knw.. He played an important role in finding tht LTTE is involved in the assasination of Rajiv Gandhi..

He was also a part of the team tht investigated the hijacking of an Indian Airlines plane to khandahar (i ve doubt in tht spelling...)

Tht was somthing abt his Achievements..

now talking about his personal life.. the only thing i know is tht he speaks about 6 languages..

and to your surprise, he was a classmate of Malayalam Superstar Mammoty..

Another interesting fact is tht, Mammoty adopted the styles of this officer when he played the role of the CBI officer in those movies(and i guess..we mallus will never forget those film series..)

pinna.. even the present kids will hum tht title music..(ta ta ta tana ta...ta ta tanata..)

okk..so i think we went away from the topic we were discussing..

And tht was the real career story of a malayali..

So guys, thrive hard, so tht we can see more malayalis in these paths..

Frankly speaking, i myself also like to get an IAS or IPS..Bt i knw its nt an easy task, bt still its possible.

The only thing we ve to do is tht, update ourselves on every thing tht happens around us...

Be a good reader as well as a good listner... more precisely a very good reflective listner..

Rest we leave to God..

Nature Nanotechnology

Stanford researchers ve reclaimd braggin rights for creatin the world's smallest writin, a distinctn the univ 1st gained in 1985 and lost in 1990.

Do you know how small is the writing?

dnt get surprised...

Ya.. The letters in the words r assembld frm subatomic sizd bits as small as 0.3 nm, or roughly 1/3rd of a billionth of a meter.

They ve encoded the letters "S" and "U" (as in Stanford University) within the interference patterns formed by quantum electron waves on the surface of a sliver of copper. The wave patterns even project a tiny hologram of the data, which can be viewed with a powerful microscope.

They ve created letters 40 times smaller than the original prize-winning effort nd more than 4 times smaller than the IBM initials.

The significance of the above discovery is that we have finally found a technique to store more information in a very small space...
