Theory of Everything: A step towards understanding the mind of God!!! Part 1

Scientists have long been trying to unify all the theories currently present and to make Theory of Everything (TOE). With this theory, we will be able to understand the working of this universe and predict the outcome of any experiments carried out in principle.

Basically they are trying to unify the 4 forces of nature:
1) Gravitational 
2) Electromagnetism
3) Weak Interaction
4) Strong Interaction

Rooting samsung galaxy 3

Last time I had told you how I had installed froyo on my cell. Today, I will tell you how I rooted it.

Rooting is the process wherein you get access to system folders. In Unix terms, to get root level access. Once rooted, you can play with the system files. If you are not good in this, please don't try as it may brick your phone and nullify your warranty.

Now, I have warned you, but if you still want to continue, then follow the link which gives step-by-step guide for this:

Installed Froyo (Android 2.2) on my samsung i5801 (galaxy 3)

We all know what a good phone samsung i5801 (aka samsung galaxy 3) is. For the price it is selling, its a good buy. Apart from the low res screen (which is not that of a hindrance, unless you have used high res screens before), all other features are good. It can even play Divx/Xvid videos out of the box.

The only thing which it was lacking was the froyo update. Lots of new phones in the same price bracket has been released with Froyo along with the old ones who have got the official update. Now thats not cool.

Monday...

I have begun to hate Mondays. When I was in Bangalore, working for Infosys, it didn't mattered whether it was a Sunday or a Monday or any other day. Now, I am in Pune, close to home, every weekend I go to Mumbai and hence looking forward for weekends. But, when I wake up on a Monday morning, I just don't feel like going to office. Hence, I have started to take a lot of leaves on Monday, giving lots of excuses. But, this is not the case with Tuesday. On Tuesday, I wake up early so that I can be to office on time. No irritation, no frustration.

Sometimes, I feel that we should just get rid of Mondays and instead have a 6 day week, with 4 weekdays and 2 weekends :). I know this would make an year to end fast and that in turn would make us age faster (ladies wont like this :P), but we can compensate with having more weeks in a year. With this we would be having many happy people in office, working (slogging) happily, knowing that its just 4 days before we have the weekends.

Many people would have had this crazy thought in their minds at some point in their lives. Well, I am going through it, and hoping that it ends soon.



EDIT: The phase is over, now I dont get those lazy bugs when I wake up on a Monday...hurrah... :)

Terrific win for India...

India played really well to level the series 1-1. The win is sweeter because it was our depleted bowling attack,  which under constant criticism, came good and made sure the batsmen had less to score on a fifth day with pitch not spitting venom.

The main highlight being VVS Laxman's batting. At one end where Sachin was battling hard, Laxman scored freely and hardly seemed to be troubled. His strokeplay is exemplary and is breath-taking to watch him play those strokes.

Apart from Dravid and Gambhir, everybody came good in this series. Batting seems to be good, it will take either a splendid bowling or an ordinary batting to bring their downfall.

After the tests, we are heading towards the more exciting one-dayers, with New-zealand joining as the third team for the Tri series. This should be a very good preparation for all the 3 teams for the world cup. India should be happy with the schedule for the rest of this year alongwith the start of next year before worldcup as they play the most number of ODI's (18).

In England, Pakistan seems to be going through the same story again. Their batsmen had no clue against the pace and swing of English attack, mainly spear-headed by James Anderson. Pakistan really has to blame themselves. Hopefully, with Md. Yousuf back in the squad, middle order seems to be bolstered.

Looking forward to a great cricketing year before it culminates into the grand extravaganza, i.e. the World Cup.

Blogging after a long time...

Hi Folks,

Well here I am, once again...blogging after 2 years. Yes...2 years. Many things changed since last time...well its bound to when there is such a long gap.

First things first...at last India won a ODI series in New Zealand. Well you can say that this NZ attack was no match for the Indians...but we should not underestimate our players. They really played well throughout. But the real test lies ahead. Yes, I am talking about the Test matches being played from 18th March. Really looking forward to it. But the bad news is, all matches start at 3:15 Am IST :(.

Well on the subject of cricket, I cant help but really need to bring this point up. Are our cricketers safe? Recent attack on Sri-Lankan cricketers is really despicable. And it happened in Pakistan, where Indian cricket team was supposed to travel. Things are not going right in Pakistan. They need to come out of this mess pretty soon or else will get isolated from the rest of the world.

And the last thing before I say good-bye, its election time. How many of you are going to vote??? Well I cant...coz I dont have a voter ID card. Ya ya, I know I should get one...will get one by next election.

Hopefully you have enjoyed my thoughts. Please leave a message if you like it and also if you dont like it ;).

Life in Bangalore...

From the past 3 weeks I have been living in Bangalore. I have been posted here from Pune by my company.

Two things which I have noticed about this city till now is traffic and the cool weather.

Traffic is the main concern for this city, since this city was not made keeping the the IT boom that would take place, in mind. During peak time it takes around 1 hr to go from Electronic city to BTM Layout (which is around 15 mins drive normally).

And for the weather...brrrr...... the winter is too cool. I am feeling this because I am a Mumbaikar and have been living there for more than 20 years, and everybody knows Mumbai's temperature.

Yesterday I had went to Garuda Mall...man what a mall...nothing in Mumbai can be compared to it.

One more thing I have noticed is the number of foreigners in this city. They are everywhere, it seems.

All in all, Bangalore is the real Silicon Valley of India.
