I feel poignant, when I listen to this song. The song, gives the sense of belonging when you are away from your home. The song depicts all the relationship and attachment we have with our home place. Not just depicts, but does it well.
Listen to this song, you would feel the pain, the pain of separation.
Aey mere pyare watan
Aey mere bichde chaman
tuj pe dil khurbaan
tu hi meri arzoon
tu hi meri aabroon
tu hi meri jaan
Aey mere pyare watan
...
The colse to heart summer morn -
sab se pyaari subha teri
The colourful evenings -
sab se rangeen teri shaam
...
The love of mother land -
Maa ka dil banke kabhi seene se lagjata hain tu
The sense of separation -
Aur kabhi nanhi si beti banke yaad atha hain tu
The more I think of you, the more I feel
Jithna yaad aata hain tu uthna tadpaata hain tu
...
Desire to die in your arms -
Hum jahan paida huye us jagah hi nikle dam
Music, lyrics, voice ... everything is at its best. I love it.
I feel bad, that I can't sing it as beautiful.

Coffee - My Drink
Coffee is a beverage, served hot or with ice, prepared from the roasted seeds of the coffee plant. These seeds are almost always called coffee beans. Coffee is the second most commonly traded commodity in the world (measured by monetary volume), trailing only petroleum, and the most consumed beverage.
The first coffee plants are said to have come from the Horn of Africa on the shores of the Red Sea. Originally, coffee beans were taken as a food and not as a beverage. East African tribes would grind the coffee cherries together, mixing the results into a paste with animal fat. Rolled into little balls, the mixture was said to give warriors much-needed energy for battle. Later, around the year 1000 AD, Ethiopians concocted a type of wine from coffee berries, fermenting the dried beans in water. Coffee also grew naturally on the Arabian Peninsula, and it was there, during the 11th century that coffee was first developed into a hot drink.
According to one story, goat-herder noticed that his herd became friskier than usual after consuming the red cherries of a wild coffee shrub. Curious, he tasted the fruit himself. He was delighted by its invigorating effects, and was even spotted by a group of nearby monks dancing with his goats. Soon the monks began to boil the bean themselves and use the liquid to stay awake during all-night ceremonies. The other story is about a Muslim dervish who was condemned by his enemies to wander in the desert and eventually die of starvation. In his delirium, the young man heard a voice instructing him to eat the fruit from a nearby coffee tree. Confused, the dervish tried to soften the beans in water, and when this failed, he simply drank the liquid. Interpreting his survival and energy as a sign of God, he returned to his people, spreading the faith and the recipe.
Uses of coffee:
1. Antioxiditants: We consume fats and sugars that produce free radicals, and vitamins can't fight them alone. They need antioxidants. Coffe has antioxidants.
2. Great conversation starter with friends and business associates.
3. Ease Tension: It's a stimulant drink.
4. Being Active: Morning coffee keeps you alert and more active. Cup of coffee can help in the performance of tasks requiring sustained attention, even during low alertness situations such as after lunch, at night or when a person has a cold.
5. Fertilizer: Coffee grounds are a good fertilizer in gardens because of their high nitrogen content. coffee diluted with four times its volume of water can be used to amend soil acidity.
6. Art: Some use coffee to create art. Latte art involves designs in the foam of espresso-based drinks. Arfé is the use of coffee as a coloring for painting or other visual effects.
7. Well being: There have been associations between coffee consumption and lowered rates of certain illnesses, like suicide, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's, Type II diabetes, colon cancer, Sirrhosis and heart disease.
So what are you waiting for? Just go grab a cup of coffe. Remember, keep the consumption under control. Wait! these benefits are seen only under exposure to moderate dose of coffee.

Great Victory - Team India creates history
Congratulations to Team India on their victory in the final test. They deserved it all from the very beginning of the test series. They always were better than the West Indians in both the first and second match. But they had to be satisfied with a draw. However their performance was very bad in the third match, when they were on the managed to save the match and draw it.
The final match was different. It was a complete low scorer. On the first day itself, the Team India's first innings was brought to an end. Captain's knock by Rahul Dravid and Anil Kumble saved the face in the first innings. Good performance by the Indian bowlers put India on top again. End of the second day, India was 6 wickets down. They started with a lead of 97 runs, but did not add much to the total. Again the end of day 2, on the crease were Dravid and Anil Kumble. But they could not repeat the feat of the first innings. India ended their second innings with a target of 269.
Now the focuse shifted to the Indian bowlers. They lived upto the expectations and restricted West Indians to a total of 219. India won the match by 49 runs.
The only difference was India had Rahul Dravid. He symbolizes his appellation "The Wall". He is dependable. He is a boon to Indian Cricket. India under his captaincy created history. They won a test series outside India after a gap of 20 years, in WI after 35 years. It is a very long period, more than three generations of cricketers. Many players changed, many captains and coaches changed but they all failed to make the country proud while playing overseas.
When team fails, it is Captain who is blamed. When team wins, the credit goes to the so called "team-play". But this time, it was proved wrong. India won and the credit goes and even went to Dravid, the captain. He performed and he was the difference between India and WI. He was aptly awarded Man-of-the-Match. He performed in all the matches, so the Man-of-the-Series was also awarded to him.
With this performance, Rahul Dravid created a special place for himself in the history of Indian Cricket. Many more players would come, equal number would go, many captains would come and go, coach would change many times. But this performance would never be erased. It would remain for ever.
First Innings:
India 200
WI 103
Second Innings:
India 171
WI 219

Ileana - the new girl in tollywood
Oh!! She is amazingly cute. She deserves more than just an entry in my blog on her name, but this is how I would like to give tribute to the beauty - Ileana.
I noticed her only when the telugu movie "POKIRI" was released. Oh my! She has got great vital stats. The new heartthrob of the movie goers in the south.
Her beauty magnified as she depicted her various feelings through her physiognomy. I guess she would continue to be the heartthrob of telugu industry if she continues to perform and concentrate on improving her performance.
I would love to watch her perform on the screen for atleast another 5 years. Hoping to see more of her in the next few months to come, I end this wishing her a great future.

Want to get lost
I want to get lost. Not in the world of books. Not in the virtual world. I am neither interested in the world of people. I want to find a place where there would be no one around. There would be only me and my loneliness.
I want to
get lost in the forest
explore the mountain ranges
get lost in a deserted island.
I want to be alone in a place completely new to me. A place, where I know not the boundaries, I find not any restrictions, I have all the time in the world for myself and only myself.
I want to be free, I want to be independent. I want to see no other human life intruding into my privacy. I want to live this way for as long as I am bored of that life.

Ability or Inability
Some of my friend are very good in the eyes of the public. They are appreciated for their social concern. They manage their impression so very well that I would surely appreciate them for that skill. The problem with these people is that they can attract a decent size crowd, then with their backing, do anything they feel is correct. I loathe them.
Should I admire their ability to capture the crowd or should I condemn their inability to judge something good/bad?

Cup of coffe
These days, I miss coffee a lot. I used to have a lot of coffee .. about 6-7 cups a day. Every one chides me saying that it is not good to take so much of coffee. I am aware of the consequences of consuming such obsessively high amounts of caffeine.
I suddenly reduced the consumption ot 2 cups a day... now it is difficult to have anormal day. I feel sleepy generally. I feel distracted. I feel ill (withdrawal effects). But still, I will continue to consume a maximum of 2 cups of coffe or tea per day.
Even for such a small thing that I got habituated, it became very difficult to get out of that habit. Consider the people who consume mood enhancers and stimulants. For them, once they get habituated, life becomes miserable without consuming them.
But how can these things be avided?

New things, new life, new year
Many of them wished me, a great, happy, healthy, prosperous, wonderful, blissful, etc. new year. Every year I wish to myself, how wonderful it would be if their wishes were fulfilled. Probably, one of those rare instances when I wished the others' wishes come true.
Things remain the same every year. I go through the same set of things.
1. New things happen, get very excited about these. Eventually, they become old and get into the list of things that are no more exciting. Some of them, move to the list of "always-exciting" things.
2. No-more-exciting things
3. Boring ones
4. Irritating ones
5. Things that are always exciting
But still it is a new year, marking the beginning of new things, new cycle for Sun, new cycle of seasons. Every thing starts again, but they are the same things. Then why is it called a new year. But it brings in nothing new along with it. It serves the same old wine in a new bottle.
Is this not a mockery of words? A new year is just the same old wine packed in a new bottle. It is for this peripheral new things that we celebrate, we eat, drink, make merry, probably even gift things to each other. Instead of gifting others, why don't we gift ourselves the same. We say that it shows your love, your caring for others. When do we love and care the most important person in our life, the nearest person to us. It is non-other then the self. If that was the case, then why do we need a reason to show how much we care about our dearest ones, or ourselves.
This celebration does not make any sense. There are many more things that we celebrate. Do we need an occasion to express love to lover, love and respect to Mother and Father, friendship and trust to our friends? This can be done on any day, today, tomorrow, 1st, 31st, January or December.

Just a thought
After a long time (5 days), I am posting. I am not sure of why I posted or did not post? The fact of life is, you think something is good for you, then you are all set to implement it. You realize in the mid way that something else was good.
The problem starts here. If in the mid way I realize that what I have chosen is not what I wanted to choose, we may have the option to go back, or we may have no other option left. Then what happens later....
This conflict does not arise when the chose path was followed by many. The conflict is very strong only when the chosen path is not tried and tested. Wait! I read this before. Yes I am right. This was something that I am feeling today. But this is very similar to the things that Robert Frost felt about 91 years back. "The Road Not Taken".
Many times I felt that the decision I had taken was wrong. I should have gone with the other choice. This feeling is very strong when the chances of success in the selected choice is very high. This is what confuses me. The evidence shows that there is more success in this choice. But the intuition says the other way. In such a case I find it practically impossible to take a decision.
I am in this state currently. Should see what I will do.

Perception error
In everything that we perceive there is an error. This error is due to inherent biases that we have.
Recently I had experienced a self serving bias. A peculiar analytical problem was to be solved. The whole batch was given the problem. I was one of those very few people who could say that they have solved the problem.
I went on a little further, I also convinced others that it was correct. I was very happy that I was correct.
Today, a friend of mine asks for the solution, he go throughs it and comes up with places where it would fail.
Now the perception that the problem was solved changes. So, the problem is solved only till no one else can point out that the there is a problem with the solution.
Forget me, consider most famous things. Consider the larger things, the discoveries that are proposed are accepted as benchmarks and are taken for granted. Once another discovery comes saying that the discovery is incorrect/incomplete. Now, the discoverer is pushed out of credit. And this would also happen to the new discoverer, but a little late.
Examples of Geocentric universe, every one liked it, they accpeted it to be universal truth. Later, a really courageous person comes out with a differring opinion, viz. Heliocentric. Now we all know and accept that it is helio centric. Later, it could be changed to some other thing when there is more available information.

Human Like Machines (HLM)
Good thing about puzzles is that all the required information to understand it completely is available. If we treat life as a puzzle, this point becomes invalid. There is information asymmetry. We don't have all the information. Not even the critical information that is required. If we evaluate life in these terms, it become a more interesting situation.
Dearth of information makes life more interesting. How? Let me explain. If we were to have have access to all the information required, then life is solved for us. This means that a finite set of rules would be enough to tackle any thing related to life. This makes the emulation of human brain in the neural networks successful and complete. This in easier terms will mean that creation of a machine that can think like humans is possible.
Because we can take decisions in the world of information scarcity, and this can't be done by a machine, it is impossible to create a human-replica machine.
Another line of thought could be that even when we don't have access to complete information, we are able to decide based on some heuristics and some rules of thumb, which are rules again. So, it is possible to create a rule-based human-like machine (HLM).
This can be countered with the fact that the depths of these rules of thumbs are unfathomable. Even if they are finite, their application is not fixed. Even if it is fixed, it is mutable, very unlike the characteristics of machines, where the rules to large extent are immutable.
Considering these limitations, machines that emulate humans could be created, but the information that needs to be made explicit is largely tacit, the representation of this information increases the complexity.
There is a trend in terms of identifying the meta rules, the rules that are the basis for the actual rules, this will make the rules more abstract and hence decrease the size of the rules. There is an increasing effort in these directions of exploration for creating HLMs.
Though there are some breakthroughs in creating HLMs, they are largely restrictive and in no measure equal to humans. But with in a given field of expertise, are very handy.
Some day, it would be possible to have a world where the Stephen Spielberg's AI would become a reality. But that is only for future generations to witness.

Puzzling my way through
Today was an eye opener for me. I almost ensconced into a comfortable position, had I not come across this peculiar problem. I was complacent with the way things were going and the way I was able to comfortable live my way through.
Suddenly I come across a problem that looked simple. I tried to solve it. I tried for 15 minutes, then for 30 minutes. Fight continued... I spent about 1 hour, did not succeed.
I suppose I will start working on it as soon as finish my posting here. I believe, life get boring without challenges. If there is a challenge at hand, it feels great thinking about it, working towards cracking the secret.
Once I solve it, I would be satisfied. After that what? I am free again. Searching for more. This will continue ...

Hazaaron khvaishen
"Hazaaron khvaishen aisi ki har khvaish pe dam nikle
bahut nikle mere armaan lekin phir bhi kam nikle..." - Mirza Ghalib
A wonderful depiction of the desires of humans.
We dream, dream a lot, we desire, desire a lot.
We want to achieve, achieve a lot.
Each of these desires are worth trading life, we give everything to achieve them. Once we do that, we have new desires, we start off again. So many such!
When do we actually get satisfied? When do we rest?
This leads to another excellent work, this time an english one, by Robert Frost
"...
The woods are lovely, dark and deep.
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
..."
We never rest, we go further and further, deep into the lovely woods, full of energy and life.
We agree to rest, only when satisifed are we that resting is another journey
"...
And miles to go before I wake,
And miles to go before I wake." (modification by me, just to end the posting).

Hipocracy
When I read today's newspaper, I recollected the discussion I had with a friend of mine. The discussion could be summarized as "We take pride in our culture etc. We project a great culture to the outside world. We hide the problems we face. We kill each other. We project moral uprightness, but are we really moral?"
Many of us, talk about respecting women. We don't hesitate promising by our epics. We take pride in proclaiming that we treat women as incarnation of Divinity.
With the same thought, we have daily news of harrasment. We have more than 5 million HIV infected.
When we know all this, why should we push them under the carpet? Why should we hide? Are we doing any great to our selves doing this?
I always believed, and still believe that problem of the society can be solved only when discussed in open. I still can't understand how we would be able to solve them "by castigating" those who come out in the open and try to educate the unaware.
If the mindset of people doesn't change, we would be highly educated but still ignorant. If we thing that there are others to solve this, it won't be solved. Remember "It always starts from the self".
