Its a Macro world after All

This is turning out to a Good week so far.
In the past couple of months I have turned into somewhat of an Amateur-Wannabe Photographer.


I just own a simple point and shoot, a CANON IXUS 105 which I carry around everywhere now a days.


Now I follow the site called Gizmodo religiously and they have these Photography contests every once in a while based on different themes.


This time around their theme was Macro Photography, and I decided to send one of my pics as an entry. I didn't win of course being the complete noob I am (just look at the other entrees and the brilliant work they do in clicking those pictures, I can't even imagine to win anything there), but the good people at Gizmodo published the picture I had clicked on their site. Which is as good as the grand prize for me. 






Thanks Guys :) .. Your motivation is motivating me to put on a DSLR soon on my Christmas Shopping List.

Life is awful because Dragons are extinct

print("Hello World!")   It has been a long time since we last met, a lot has changed since then.  The human race has progressed into what some of them assume is the year 2013. (Idiots) . Game of Thrones Season 4 is proving to be really Epic.  I have started reading more of Ender's Adventures (Before the movie comes out this year and spoils everything) . I am working close to 12 hours everyday. (Resulting in this blog being neglected) Winter is coming !! (The Aussie One, and not in Westeros) But some other things remain the same, such as the ailments of the heart. So when one of my friends pinged me on IM today with a question: (6:33:54 PM) Korean Friend: why is life soo swfulll (6:33:58 PM)  Korean Friend : awfulll (6:33:59 PM)  Korean Friend : * (6:34:13 PM) Roy: All because Dragons have gone extinct (6:34:20 PM) Roy: Scientifically Proven I blurted out a random response without thinking (as usual) . But then this response got me thinkin...

The Friend Zone

Image
Couple of weeks ago during a random conversation the topic of Friend Zone and came up and I was surprised that people are not aware of ( the dangers of ) Friend Zone.  So for the benefit of fellow Human Race ( mostly Guys I guess ) let me try and describe what this weird phenomena is. "Friend zone" describes the way most women stop seeing a male friend as dating material after a certain amount of time has passed, even though she might have begun dating them had he acted differently when they first met. Say there is a man called Rahul of average attractiveness and a woman called Priya.  Rahul meets Priya.  Priya thinks "This guy seems nice. He's quite funny and reasonably good looking".  Rahul doesn't ask Priya out, but they see each other at social functions.  After a while, Priya stops seeing Rahul as a nice guy who is quite funny and reasonably good looking, and just sees him as My Friend Rahul. But oh no! Rahul realizes he's secretly...

Proved : The World is flat

There is still quite a lot of debate about the earth being round. I'm pretty sure its not round, and there's actually a really neat little experiment you can do at home that disproves the "round earth" theory:  Get a round ball. Put it on top of a larger ball, representing the earth.  You will notice how the smaller ball will roll off the larger ball, since both are round.  If, however, you place the same ball on the ground, i.e. on the top of the round earth ( the top is where ever you are, because, if the "round earth" theorists are right, the earth is round ), you will notice that the ball does not roll off to one side. This home experiment disproves the "round earth" theory, and it's a really neat trick you can do with the kids to get them involved in science from an early age.  Kids are the future, you know.
