How IIT Grads Helped a Kanpur Mechanic's Son to Get Into MIT

n a house in Kanpur, calorie counting has been abandoned for a large box of mithai after Ayush Sharma, 17, discovered that he has been accepted at the world-famous Massachusetts’s Institute of Technology or MIT. A scholarship of a crore is part of the deal and covers his tuition expenses. For his living expenses, Ayush plans to launch a campaign on social media and hopes crowd-sourced funding will come to his rescue.

Ayush’s father is a mechanic. His mother retired as a constable of the paramilitary Central Reserve Police Force. The teen wants to someday help in reforming the education system in India. “I am one of the three people selected for MIT from India, so I am very happy,” he said.

His passion for Physics was matched by his aptitude. He was a topper at the Kendriya Vidyalay in Kanpur, and 2 years ago, he joined a coaching centre run by IIT graduates who work with students who can’t afford expensive tuition classes.

“I was introduced to idea of studying abroad at Avanti coaching centre. Mentors helped me in understanding the entire process,” he said. When he graduates, he will be the first member of his family with a college degree. He has a younger brother in Class 10.

In 2014, through the same coaching centre, Ayush travelled for a two-week summer course to Yale. He says one obstacle he had to overcome was speaking English. “It was one thing that no one could have taught me. There were not many people who I could speak with in English, so I would end up talking to myself. Little by little, I improved.”

“God has blessed us that our child will now study abroad,” said his proud mother, Manju Sharma.

Ayush will travel to the US to begin his college life in September.

An Amazing Body Paint and Two Ladies…See What Transpires !!!

Here’s a couple of sisters doing an extremely convincing impression of a chameleon with the help of some amazing bodypaint:

Johannes Stötter/YouTube

It’s the work of renowned bodypaint artist Johannes Stötter, who has won a stack of awards for his work, including a world championship in 2012. He recently released the making of Chameleon onto YouTube so we could see it magically come to life:

 

It has been nearly two years since Stotter last hit internet fame with another of his creations on YouTube, The Frog, which is actually pieced together by five women.

If you like that,head over to his website where you’ll find around 100 more mind-blowing prints. Or, if you prefer, his Facebook page.

While his animal creations get most attention, Stotter’s landscape works are just as incredible:

” Peanuts are Not Nuts …” !!!

Myth: Peanuts are nuts.

Peanuts are a food with an identity crisis. While most people think of peanuts as nuts, they are actually legumes. What is a legume? It is a type of plant with seeds that grow inside pods such as peas or beans. Unlike nuts, which are grown on trees, peanuts grow underground. Peanut seeds flower above ground and then migrate underground to reach maturity. They are removed from the ground during harvesting. Peanuts are also called goobers, goober peas, groundnuts, earthnuts, monkey nuts, and grass nuts.

Peanut Fact by Numbers:

  • How big is the average peanut farm? 100 acres
  • How many peanuts does it take to make one 12-ounce jar of peanut butter? 540
  • How many jars of peanut butter does the world’s largest peanut butter factory produce in a day? 250,000
  • How many peanut butter sandwiches can be made from one acre of grown peanuts? 30,000
  • How many peanut butter and jelly sandwiches will the average 18-year-old eat in his life? 1,500

Bonus Facts:

  • India and China are the world’s largest producers of peanuts, with the United States coming in third.
  • In the early 1900s, peanuts replaced cotton as the leading cash crop for farmers in the South.
  • The primary use of peanuts in the United States is for peanut butter.
  • The average American consumes more than six pounds of peanuts and peanut butter products each year.
  • In the United States, any “peanut butter” branded product must be at least 90 percent peanuts. It’s required by law.
  • Thomas Jefferson and Jimmy Carter – elected presidents of the United States – were peanut farmers.
  • Ever wonder about the secret behind TV’s beloved talking horse, Mr. Ed? Yep, you guessed it, peanut butter. It turns out, Alan Young, the actor who played the owner of Mr. Ed a few years ago admitted that he made the peanut butter story up, and in fact it was a piece of nylon placed under the horse’s tongue attached to a string that did the trick.
  • Dr. George Washington Carver, considered the father of the peanut industry, researched and developed more than 300 uses for peanuts in the early 1900s. He could serve an entire dinner in which all the food was made from peanuts, including soup, meat, vegetables, milk, ice cream, and coffee.
  • The term “peanut gallery” originated in the late 19th century and refers to the “cheap seats”, or balcony seats, in a theater. In response to a bad performer, this rowdy crowd was known to target the stage by throwing the most common and cheap snack sold in the theater – peanuts.
  • Due to the danger of the sport, race car drivers are known for their superstitions. Many race car drivers have banned the presence of shelled peanuts from their cockpits due to two unfortunate crashes in 1937 that each resulted in casualties, including two race car drivers. Afterwards, rumors spread about the presence of peanut shells on the scene, which sparked the superstition among race car drivers that peanuts in the shell are very bad luck indeed.
  • The Peanuts cartoon, featuring Charlie Brown, was originally name Li’l Folks, but changed its name toPeanuts to differentiate it from other similarly named comics. The name Peanuts was based on Howdy Doody’s peanut gallery – an onstage audience of 40 kids. The peanut gallery referred to a nice lively crowd rather than the heckling crowd of the theater. The creator of the Charlie Brown comics, Charles M. Schulz, always disliked the name Peanuts.

International Space station Fly over Australia…

From the International Space Station, NASA astronaut Scott Kelly (stationcdrkelly on Instagram) took this photograph and posted it to social media on April 6, 2015. Kelly wrote, “Australia. You are very beautiful. Thank you for being there to brighten our day. #YearInSpace”

Kelly and Russian Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos) cosmonaut Mikhail Kornienko began their one-year mission aboard the space station on March 27. Most expeditions to the space station last four to six months. By doubling the length of this mission, researchers hope to better understand how the human body reacts and adapts to long-duration spaceflight.

” இந்த தூணுக்கு அடிப்பாகம் எது ….நுனி எது …” ?

1234201_315112848661397_4724600860700186658_n.jpg

பத்ராசலத்தில் ஸ்ரீராமர் கோயில் திருப்பணி

நடந்து முடிந்தது. கோயில் திருப்பணியில்

கை தேர்ந்த கணபதி ஸ்தபதி அந்த பொறுப்பை

ஏற்றிருந்தார்.

பத்ராசலத்துக்கு யாத்திரையாக வந்திருந்த

மகாபெரியவர்களிடம் “தாங்கள் அவசியம் வந்து

பார்வையிட வேண்டும்.தங்கள் கடாக்ஷம் வேண்டும்”

என அழைத்தார் ஸ்தபதி.பெரியவர்கள் கோதாவரியில்

ஸ்நானத்துக்குச் செல்லும் வழியில் அங்கே

நுழைந்தார்கள்.

கல்தூண் ஒன்றில் சிற்பம் செதுக்கும் வேலை

நடந்து வந்தது.

“இந்தத் தூணுக்கு அடிப்பாகம் எது,நுனிப்பாகம் எது”

என்று கேட்டார்கள் பெரியவர்கள். ஸ்தபதிக்கு ஒரே

திகைப்பு! ‘இதைப் பார்த்தாலே தெரிகிறதே! இப்படி

ஏதோ குழந்தைத்தனமாகக் கேள்வி கேட்கிறார்களே!’

என்று எண்ணியபடி அந்தப் பாகங்களைச் சுட்டிக்

காண்பித்தார்.

“இந்த அடிப்பாகத்தை நுனியாகவும்,நுனியை

அடிப்பாகமாகவும் மாற்றலாமா?”என்று கேட்டார்கள்.

ஸ்தபதிக்கு ஒரே குழப்பமாக இருந்தது.

“செதுக்குவதற்கு முன்னால் ஒவ்வொரு தூணுக்கும்

இதுதான் அடிப்பாகம்,இதுதான் நுனி என்று எப்படித்

தீர்மானம் செய்வாய்” என்று கேட்டார்கள் சுவாமிகள்.

ஸ்தபதி பதில் சொல்லத் தெரியாமல் நின்றார்.

“சுத்தி எடுத்துவா, இதைக் கீழேயிருந்து மேல் வரை

கத்தியால் தட்டு.ஏதாவது தெரிகிறதா பார்”என்றார்கள்.

தட்டியபிறகு ஸ்தபதிக்கு ஏதோ ஒரு சந்தேகம்.

ஆனால் சொல்லத் தெரியவில்லை.

“மீண்டும் ஒருமுறை தட்டு.அதிலிருந்து வரும்

சத்தத்தைக் கவனி” என்றார்கள்.

“கீழே சத்தம் ‘கணீர்’ என்று வருகிறது. மேலே செல்லச்

செல்ல சத்தம் குறைகிறது” என்றார்,ஸ்தபதி.

“மரத்திலே வைரம் பாய்ந்த கட்டை என்பார்கள்.

அது சிகப்பாகக் கெட்டியாக இருக்கும். சுலபமாகப்

பிளக்க முடியாது.அதிலிருந்துதான் மரப்பாச்சி-

மரப்பொம்மை செய்வார்கள்.நீ அதைப்பற்றி

கேட்டிருப்பாய். அதுபோலதான் கல்லிலும்

வைரம் பாய்ந்த பாகம் கெட்டியாய் இருக்கும்.

அதிலிருந்து வெண்கலம் போல ‘கணீர்’ என்று

சத்தம் வரும். அதுவும் கெட்டியாக (அடர்த்தி

நிறைந்ததாக) இருக்கும். அந்தப் பகுதியைத்தான்

அடிப்பாகமாகக் கொள்வார்கள்.

“சத்தம் அதிகம் வரும் பாகம் அடி; குறைவாக

உள்ளது நுனி. நீ சரியாகத்தான் வைத்திருக்கிறாய்.

உனக்கு எல்லாம் தெரிந்திருக்கிறது. சொல்லத்தான்

தெரியவில்லை” என்றார்கள் பெரியவர்கள்.

ஸ்தபதி உடனே சாஷ்டாங்கமாகப் பெரியவர்களின்

காலில் விழுந்து நமஸ்கரித்து, “தங்கள் அருளால்தான்

எல்லாம் நன்றாக அமைய வேண்டும்” என்று

பிரர்த்தித்தார். அப்படியே அமைய ஆசீர்வதித்தார்கள்

பெரியவர்கள்.

எல்லாக் கலைஞர்களுமே இப்படித்தான் முதலில்

சாமான்யமாக மதித்து,கடைசியில்,’இவர்களிடம்

நாம் கற்கவேண்டியது நிறைய இருக்கு’ என்ற

முடிவுக்கு வருவார்கள்.

தெய்வத்துக்கு தெரியாத கலை ஏதும் உண்டா?

” தவறு யாருடையது …?…. கொஞ்சம் சிந்தியுங்க …”

தன்னுடைய பால்ய காலத்தில் கிடைக்காத ஒன்றை தன் பிள்ளைகளுக்கு அளிப்பது அன்பின், பிரியத்தின் ஒருவகையென்றே பெரும்பாலானோர் நினைக்கின்றனர். அப்படியான பொருட்கள் அந்தக் குழந்தைகளை ஒருவிதத்தில் மகிழ்ச்சியூட்டினாலும், விதவிதமான பிரச்சனைகளைக் கொண்டு வந்து சேர்க்கவும் தவறுவதில்லை.

கிட்டத்தட்ட கோடை விடுமுறை துவங்கிவிட்டது. குடியிருப்பு பகுதிகளின் வீதிகளிலிருந்து பத்து பனிரெண்டு வயதுப் பிள்ளைகள் ஹோண்டா ஆக்டிவா (அ) ஹீரோ ப்ளெஸ்ரை வண்டிகளில் சாலைகளில் வந்து நுழைகின்றன. சாலையில் நிதானமாய்ச் செல்லவேண்டும், இடது பக்கம் செல்ல வேண்டும், பின்பக்கக் கண்ணாடி பார்க்க வேண்டும், திருப்பங்களில் ஒலியெழுப்ப வேண்டும், திரும்பும்போது பகல் நேரங்களில் கை காட்ட வேண்டும் எனும் எந்தவிதத் தெளிவும், அறிவும் இல்லாத அந்தப் பிள்ளைகள் வளைந்து நெளிந்து பட்டாம்பூச்சி போலச் செல்வதையெல்லாம் ரசிக்கும் மனநிலை வாய்க்கவில்லை. குப்பென அடிவயிற்றில் பட்டாம்பூச்சி பறக்கிறது. அவர்களில் பலர் தரையின் இரண்டு பக்கமும் கால் ஊன்றும் அளவுக்குக்கூட உயரமாக இருப்பதில்லை.

அதே சாலைகளில்தான், இரண்டு பக்கமும் கால்களைத் தொங்கப் போட்டவாறு எவ்வித பேலன்ஸும் இல்லாமல், தடுமாறியபடி ஏதோ ஒரு நிதானத்தில், புதிதாக வண்டி ஓட்டும் நடுத்தர வயதுப் பெண்மணிகள் சென்று கொண்டிருக்கின்றனர். நம்ம ஊர் சாலை அமைப்புகளுக்கு எவ்விதமும் பொருந்தாத எருமைக்கிடாய் அளவும், சிறுத்தையின் பாய்ச்சலும் கொண்ட பெரிய பைக்குகளில், ஒல்லியாய் ஒரு தலைமுறை எதையோ நோக்கி ‘விர்..விர்’ரென சீறலோடு பாய்ந்து கொண்டிருக்கிறது. சைக்கிள் கேப்பில் ஆட்டோ என்பது மறைந்து, பைக் கேப்பில் மினிடோர் என ஆம்புலன்ஸ்க்கு நிகரான அவசரத்தில் மினிடோர்காரர்கள் பறக்கின்றனர். அவர்கள் பயன்படுத்தும் ஒலிப்பான்களில் அகிலமே அதிர்கிறது.

இந்த ஆக்டிவா, ப்ளெஸ்ஸர் பிள்ளைகளின் அப்பா / அம்மாவையோ, தாத்தா/ பாட்டியையோ சந்திக்கையில் “எங்க அஸ்வினு / சுவாதி இப்பவே வண்டில என்ன போடு போடுது தெரியும்ங்ளா!?” எனச் சொல்லும்போது அவர்களிடம் வழிந்தோடும் பெருமையை நொய்யல் ஆற்றில் திருப்பிவிட்டால் அத்தனை கழிவுகளையும் கடலுக்கே அடித்துச் சென்றுவிடும்.

வயிற்றில் பறக்கும் பட்டாம்பூச்சிகளின் சார்பாக, அவர்களிடம் சொல்ல விரும்புவது ஒன்றே ஒன்றுதான்… எல்லாப் பாய்ச்சல்களும், பெருமைப் பீற்றல்களும் எந்தவொரு தீங்கும் நடக்காதவரைதான்… ஒற்றைச் சிறு கவனப்பிசகில், எல்லா ஒளியும் பொய்த்து இருள் சூழும் கொடுங்கணத்தில்… பெருமையாகவும், பொறாமையாகவும் பார்த்த அத்தனை உறவும் நட்பும் ஒத்த குரலில், “விரலுக்கு தவுந்த வீக்கம் வேணும்…. இந்த வயசுல இந்தப் புள்ளைக்கு எதுக்கு வண்டி” எனச் சொல்லும். அந்நிலையில் அவர்கள் அப்படிச் சொல்வது சரியா தவறா என நீதிபரிபாலனை செய்யும் மனநிலையில் நீங்க இருக்கச் சாத்தியமில்லை. காரணம், சூன்யமான வாழ்வின் மிகக் கசப்பான காலகட்டத்தில் இருப்பீர்கள்.

தேவைக்கும், தகுதிக்கும் மீறிய ஒரு பொருளை பெருமையென வாங்கிக் கொடுப்பது அல்லது இயக்கக் கொடுப்பது பாசம், பிரியம், கௌரவம், அந்தஸ்து என நினைத்தால் அதைவிட முட்டாள்தனம் உலகில் வேறெதுவும் இல்லை. அப்படி அளிக்கும் ஒன்றின் மூலம் உருவாகும் தீங்கின் அத்தனை பாவமும் கொடுத்தவர்களையே சாரும்!

” Know Your English ….”

Modern English is an interesting language and is always changing and evolving. Words are altered and definitions are updated accordingly. We can’t all be linguists, but we should know how to correctly use the words we choose.

Compelled

What they think it means: To do something voluntarily by choice.

What it actually means: To be forced or obligated to doing something.

To be compelled is to be forced to do something, regardless of whether you actually want to do it or not.

Bemused

What they think it means: Amused.

What it actually means: Confused.

While it sounds similar to Amused, its meaning is completely different. It originally comes from the middle-English words Be, which is an intensifier, and Muse, which is to contemplate.

 

Irony

What they think it means: Something that is funny.

What it actually means: Contrary to what you are expecting.

From the Greek word “eirōneia” – meaning “to simulate ignorance”. There are different kinds of irony but they generally are the expression of one’s meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite.

 

Redundant

What they think it means: Repetitive.

What it actually means:Unnecessarily excessive.

Not all repetition is redundant. Only when there’s too much of something – it becomes redundant

 

Effect

What you may think it means: To cause something to change.

What it actually means: An event that causes a change.

If an individual wants to change another’s opinion, the individual will need toaffect it somehow. The action taken was the effect that caused the change of opinion.

 

i.e.

What they think it means: For example.

What it actually means: In other words.

From the Latin “Id Est” (meaning: in that), i.e. is used when you want repeat something in a different manner – i.e. to say something again in another way.

 

Plethora

What they think it means: A lot of something.

What it actually means: More than is needed.

From the Greek “plēthōrē”, meaning “Be full”. 10,000 people in a stadium are not a plethora of people, but put them in a small house and they suddenly become a plethora.

 

Disinterested

What they think it means: Bored.

What it actually means: Neutral.

If you are bored – you are uninterested (it doesn’t interest you). But if you aredisinterested – you simply don’t care either way.

 

Obsolete

What they think it means: Old, out of date.

What it actually means: Not produced, used, or needed.

You might think that your old cellphone is obsolete, but cellphones are still produced, used and needed. A good example of something that is obsolete will be a steam engine – they’re so inefficient compared to today’s combustion & electric engines, that no one produces it, uses it or needs it.

 

Chronic

What they think it means: Severe.

What it actually means: Over the course of a long time.

A person with chronic pain is not necessarily in severe pain, but have been experiencing the pain for a long time.

 

Can

What they think it means: What is permissible.

What it actually means: What is possible.

If you were to ask me: “Can I have a drink?” – You’re not asking me if you are allowed to have a drink, but rather, if you are actually capable of drinking.

 

Total

Total means exactly what people think it means but it is used unnecessarily on a frequent basis. When there is a total of 50 people, the total is 50 whether or not you use the word “total”. You might hear someone say that they were totally surprised. Surprise is not a conditional emotion – You were either surprised or not. The use of total didn’t add anything of value to the sentence.

The First Website EverMade…

Today I found out what the first website ever made was.  Simply put, it was a website made by the World Wide Web’s creator Tim Berners-Lee, who was working for CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research).

The first ever website was published on August 6, 1991 and served up a page explaining the World Wide Web project and giving information on how users could setup a web server and how to create their own websites and web pages, as well as how they could search the web for information.  The URL for the first ever web page put up on the first ever website was http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html

The First Ever Machine to Run a Web Server.

This link is no longer active and, unfortunately, nobody bothered to make a copy of this original page, which tended to be updated daily anyways.  The earliest version of it that was recorded was in 1992 and a copy of that page can be found here.

The first ever web browser, called WorldWideWeb, was also created by Tim Berners-Lee.  This browser had a nice graphical user interface; allowed for multiple fonts and font sizes; allowed for downloading and displaying images, sounds, animations, movies, etc.; and had the ability to let users edit the web pages being viewed in order to promote collaboration of information.  However, this browser only ran on NeXT Step’s OS, which most people didn’t have because of the high cost of these systems (this company was owned by Steve Jobs, so you can imagine the cost bloat ;-)).

In order to provide a browser anyone could use, the next browser he developed was much simpler and, thus, versions of it could be quickly developed to be able to run on just about any computer, pretty much regardless of processing power or operating system.  It was a bare-bones inline browser (command line / text only), which didn’t have most of the features of his original browser, but at least could be used on pretty much any computer out there at the time and allowed people to access the information on the web.

The first web server was also written by Tim Berners-Lee called CERN HTTPd, the latter part standing for “Hypertext Transfer Protocol daemon”.   For those not familiar, a daemon is simply a program that more or less runs in the background on a system doing whatever it is programmed to do; in this case, listening for and responding to requests for web pages that exist on the machine it is running on; thus this daemon would be called a “server”.

Unique Kailas Temple @ Ellora Caves Complex….!!!

This is the world famous Kailasa temple at Ellora and let’s look objectively into who could have built this amazing structure. By the end of this video, I hope you will agree with me that our history is completely wrong, and that this temple was built by a very advanced civilization.

What is so special about this temple? This temple was not constructed by adding stone blocks, but an entire mountain was carved to create this temple. This is the only example in the whole world where a mountain was cut out from the top, to create a structure. In all the other temples and caves, even in Ellora and the rest of the world, the rock was cut from the front and carved as they went along. The whole world has followed a rock cutting technique called “cut-in monolith” while Kailasa temple is the only one that has used the exact opposite technique called “cut-out monolith”.

To see why this rock cutting technique is so different, let’s take a look at this pillar that is over 100 feet tall. See how small human beings look when compared to this pillar. Normally, to create such a huge pillar, it would take years of work, carving accurately on the huge rock. But this pillar was carved by scooping out all the pieces of mountain around it. You can imagine the amount of rock, which has been removed to create this pillar.

Historians and archaeologists are confused because of the sheer amount of rock that was removed in this temple. Archaeologists confirm that over 400,000 tons of rock had to be scooped out, which would have taken not years, but centuries of human labor. Historians have no record of such a monstrous task and they think that it was built in less than 18 years.

Let us do a simple math and see if historians could be right. I am going to assume that people worked every day for 18 years and for 12 hours straight with no breaks at all. I am going to ignore rainy days, festivals, war time and assume that people worked like robots ceaselessly. I am also going to ignore the time taken to create intricate carvings and complex engineering design and planning and just focus on the removal of rock.

If 400,000 tons of rock were removed in 18 years, 22,222 tons of rock had to be removed every year. This means that 60 tons of rock was removed every day, which gives us 5 tons of rock removed every hour. I think we can all agree, that is not even possible today to remove 5 tons of rock from a mountain, every hour. Not even with all the so called advanced machines that we have. So, if it is not humanly possible, was it done by humans at all? Was this created with the help of extraterrestrial intelligence?

Now, forget about creating such an extraordinary structure. Can human beings at least destroy this temple? In fact, Aurangzeb a Muslim king employed a thousand workers to completely demolish this temple. In 1682, he ordered that that the temple be destroyed, so that there would be no trace of it. Records show that a 1000 people worked for 3 years, and they could only do a very minimal damage. They could break and disfigure a few statues here and there, but they realized it is just not possible to completely destroy this temple. Aurangzeb finally gave up on this impossible task.

Note that this attempted destruction is very similar to another mysterious structure called The Menkaure’s pyramid in Egypt. Another Muslim ruler wanted all the pyramids to be destroyed, and started his work from the Menkaure’s pyramid. After years of trying, he was only able to make a small dent on the pyramid. He gave up too. Were all these indestructible structures around the world created by extraterrestrials? Is that why human beings are not even able to destroy them?

In fact, archaeologists agree that Kailasa temple was created before any other temple in the Ellora cave complex. Could this have been built centuries before human beings started carving other temples nearby? Is this why the architecture, the design, and the size is so much better and bigger than other temples? If it was built by humans, it is logical to expect that the rock cutting techniques and design would become better over time. People would gain more experience and knowledge and make better structures in the future. However, the Kailasa temple is the oldest and the biggest temple carved with engineering perfection.

Unlike other temples, the Kailasa is the only temple that is visible from the air. Out of 34 temples, all carved side by side, Kailasa stands out and you can see it while flying over it. Is this just a coincidence? Or was it designed for people to see it from the air, like Nazca lines of Peru? Even on Google earth, the aerial view of Kailasa temple clearly shows an X mark. This is how it looks from the top; you can see a circular design that is studded with 4 lions that create this huge X mark. Was this created as a signal for extraterrestrials, who can spot the location while flying?
