S p a r r o w s


















I remember those days as a kid, when these cute little birds used to nest in the loft at the top of the verandah at home. Watching them building a beautiful nest was a charm. I used to peek inside daily for eggs and one day, I found them, they looked like little white marbles.
I heard a little chirping one fine morning, which meant the baby sparrows had arrived!I felt very excited!I climbed up to the nest to see them. There they were,3 little babies. They didn't have their fur yet.
The parents used to take turns in feeding them. While one was feeding,the other used to search for food. Really dedicated mom and dad!! The dad could be identified with his beard :).

Making a chirping sound would make them believe that their parents had arrived. To respond, they would chirp and answer back :) .So one day I tried it!To my astonishment they answered back!!I got really excited and repeatedly begged my mom to get the nest down. I wanted to have a close look!
At last my mother gave up and brought the nest down. I was sooooo happy :)) . Mom kept the nest on a tool for me to have a closer look. I again made that chirping sound. They answered back and I put my finger above them. They thought my fingers to be their parents and started nibbling on my finger for food. It was pityful. They were really hungry. Their mom and dad were visible at a distance with food in their mouths. I told my mother about it and then they were back in their own place.
After a while, the parents came and fed the babies. I felt happy that their hunger was over.

Days passed and they grew up into adult sparrows quickly. They were big but hadn't learnt to fly properly yet.

One day as I was watching TV one of them suddenly flew in. I quickly switched off the fan to avoid an accident. They were trying to fly. Scared, they hid under the bed. With great difficulty, I was able to get her out. Caressing the little bird I realized how beautiful she was with innocent little eyes.It was my first close up glance of the sparrow. At that instant, the sparrow became my favorite bird.

I made a pose like Amitabh Bachchan in Coolie and admired myself in the mirror :) .

It was funny,replacing a hawk with a sparrow :) .

I kept her back in the nest.

After some more days, the sparrows became fully mature and left their nest.But the life cycle continued in the same place. New sparrows,new life, eggs and chicks again and then the chirpy game!!

To woo the female, the male sparrow is often noticed to make a circular dance as if its a keyed toy!!Believe me itz true!!!

Nowadays the mobile phone has become a threat to their existence. Read this to know about it.

This really makes me sad!Some sort of electromagnetic radiation from mobiles becomes intolerable for these cute innocent birds.

So the next time you see a sparrow, please,please,please,plzzzzzzzzzzzzz switch off your cell phone!You can save one!

What is life?

Saved by the hand of God!



What is life?Life is a never ending journey,with lots of ups and downs,as I have kept facing a lot in life.But still life drives me on.As if there is a purpose,something which God has made me for,like He has made everyone.Sometimes I really get frustrated and even feel that God is playing games with me and u know what? I think He enjoys it!Huh!Coz he knowz wats gonna happen next.

I feel so lonely sometimes,all alone is this gr8 biiiiiiiig world,I think itz bcoz I still havent found my happiness!!

The Pursuit of Happiness



Itz a great movie based on a true story.Will Smith as Chris Gardner is just awesome!!I have the same pursuit,to get a decent job as Chris in the story.

The scene where Chris gets his dream job and takes his son in his arms let my tears out.I cudnt believe I was crying!!

Those who have'nt seen this movie shud really watch it.It shows and teaches u how much mean and nasty life can be.How you feel when u have just about $21 in your bank account!

My pursuit is still going on!I pray to God to get me a job as soon as possible!I wanna bring joy in my dad and mom's lives!!How happy they wud be wen they hear that I have been selected in some decent company!!Letz see if u still play games with me or I finish my pursuit of happiness.AMEN!!

A Sad Goodbye!! Undeletable Memories!!


This night will be memorable forever.Coz its the last time we are having a get together with our beloved seniors.They were our mentor,our guide for the past three years.Now we are all alone by ourselves!
I never felt this sad anytime before!As I was sitting in the bus while returning after the farewell party,everything turned gloomy!!I can't believe,the time has finally arrived to bid farewell to our seniors!I feel its a lil early for them to leave.If there had been a total of 5 years of engineering,we cud have them for another year and learn some more words of wisdom!!
But this is it!Bye to the great founders of TeamOne(www.teamone.co.nr).You can count on us!We'll never let you down!!The name of TeamOne will reach to further heights!!We'll strive hard for that!

Here is Bobby's message at the farewell party:



Logging off....

Cyborgs


Cyborg(Merged from the two terms:cybernetic and organism)

Part Machine,Part Human.

This topic has been fascinating people for quite a long time.Many enjoy discussing it but very few accept it as a fact rather than fiction.I'm fortunate to be one of those few people.Science has come up with new ways to robotize humans.Even a heart patient with a pacemaker can be referred to as being partially robotized!
Even articles have come up in newspapers,saying about robotizing humans and making them immortal by brain transfers! Itz just Amazing!
Kevin Warwick,a renowned professor and scientist from the University of Reading,England, has successfully conducted experiments on himself to prove the wonders of cybernetics(the branch of science which deals with the communication between animals and machines).
Jagadish Chandra Bose, a reknowned scientist from India had already realised this field as a modern discipline,several years ago before India's independence.He was a great visionary who had clearly explained the facts of cybernetics.Had he not died in 1937,he would have contributed a lot more in this field.
Heres an excerpt from a website article on J.C.Bose:

"Bose’s theories about the relationship between living and non-living and plant’s response to stimuli were not taken seriously in his time and even today some of his ideas have remained esoteric. However, as D.M. Bose, who succeeded Bose as Director of the ,Bose Institute has pointed out “his model of an electric eye which records with electric signals message received from outside world, his physical model of memory as a mechanism for storing information justified his being considered a precursor of the modern discipline of cybernetics.” It is now recognised that Bose had made very significant contributions to the field of chronobiology and circadian rhythms even before these two technical terms were coined."

What I believe is cybernetics could be the ultimate solution for the betterment of mankind.Apart from repairing physical defects in humans,a new concept of making super humans has come up which could make old people lift heavy objects single handedly and effortlessly! Take a look at the picture above depicting a young man wearing a robot suit.This robot suit when wore,merges with the human nervous system and enhances the human's power fantastically to a large extent! Imagine how an old aged person would benefit from this marvellous device!

But apart from the physical terms,cybernetics can also enhance the human mind!

Looks like human immortality is not far away!...

So Cybernetics as we see, beautifully benefits the human kind!

Bye 4 now!

C u later!

Take Care!

Keep Smiling!

Why Blogs?



Wonder how the blogging business began!What was wrong with websites anyway?I had made my website a long time back about 5 years ago.Stopped using it after a year at that time coz of board exams.Later on it expired.Nowadayz webpages have a new flavor called blogging.Sounds cool to me.A new way to express yourself.Blogs save much time when compared to webpages.Thats what I feel.
So long 4 today!C u!Byez!
