This is an entertaining and educational video in Telugu on Condom usage, to prevent from sexually transmitted infections and HIV, from Nrityanjali Academy, Secunderabad, Andhra Pradesh, India.
Look at the Indians participating in the video at the background, they don’t look that happy. Almost seemed as if they’re going to beat up the condoms any time. (more…)
This is so true about Wikipedia, I often go to Wikipedia to search for some computing related stuff and end up reading a bunch of articles from Aristotle to Zula. These are the times when productive time is turned unproductive.
(The problem with Wikipedia.)
Well and finally, if you’re really interested, you can check out Wikipedia for emergency bleeding control. There’s a picture of a bleeding guy smiling happily, looking pleased with himself in there.
On a side note, going to Digg.com destroys productivity too.
Vilayanur Ramachandran explains what actually happens in the brain and it’s actually easy enough to understand. And he’s quite humorous too. I wish my science lecturers are half as entertaining.
In a wide-ranging talk, Vilayanur Ramachandran explores how brain damage can reveal the connection between the internal structures of the brain and the corresponding functions of the mind. He talks about phantom limb pain, synesthesia (when people hear color or smell sounds), and the Capgras delusion, when brain-damaged people believe their closest friends and family have been replaced with imposters.
Neurologist V.S. Ramachandran looks deep into the brainâs most basic mechanisms. By working with those who have very specific mental disabilities caused by brain injury or stroke, he can map functions of the mind to physical structures of the brain.
I’ve grown to be more flexible already. I maintain a to-do list of the day and never plan my day like you would in an event schedule plan.
It really didn’t make sense after a while, planning things this way:
I rarely follow them, what I plan usually turned out this way:
It just didn’t work out at all. These days, I have a to-do list, ranked in priority:
Okay, the ‘have breakfast’ part is lame but you get my point. It does kinda help me get organized and nowadays I sleep as and when I like, read as and when I like and work as and when I like. If it’s not productive, I usually go to bed. It kinda messed up my sleep cycles to a certain extends, I’m usually well and awake at 2 in the morning programming. It’s kinda bad for health I heard but things seem to get done.
And when things get done, I get happier as the result. And happier persons do get healthy right?
There is this thing my friend was telling me about liver repairs occurring between 12 to 3 AM in the morning when you’re sleeping. And once you missed it, your liver gets poorer as the days pass by. Ever heard of this? Can anybody verify this?
This week I had 4 text messages sent at my sleeping hours:
Erm… I am starting to wonder if people think I don’t sleep or something. Seriously, it’s quite inconsiderate to text me at those timings. I get awoken by my phone’s vibration, I didn’t set a ring tone even. I am all fine with people texting stuff that are important.
BUT all the four messages are sent by 3 different people request me to send this and that, a reminder to bring my camera to school to lend him, and 2 others to ask for phone numbers of other people. They’re asking for favors in the wee hours of the morning and none are particularly urgent. What are they thinking? Have they even considered I might have woke up just to entertain their messages.
I usually sleep at 2 AM, so be nice and don’t message me till morning. Ahh, like they would read my blog like that.
[On a side note: My friend was telling me that liver repair starts at 12 AM and stops at 3 AM in the morning. Any comments on how true that could be?]
Who Make The Best Patients For Surgeons?
The 1st surgeon says, “I like to see accountants on my operating table. When you open them up, everything inside is numbered.”
The 2nd responds, “Yeah, but you should try electricians! Everything inside them is colour coded.”
The 3rd surgeon says, “No, I really think librarians are the best everything inside them is in alphabetical order.”
The 4th surgeon chimes in, “You know, I like construction workers. Those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end & if the job takes longer than you said it would, no big deal.”
But the 5th surgeon topped them all.
“You’re all wrong. Politicians are the easiest to operate on. There are no guts, no heart, no balls, no brains, & no spine. And on top of that, the head & the ass are interchangeable.”
