Lawyer's joke

2007-06-03T18:09:56Z

Not much activity on this blog so posting this

On a
sign outside a lawyer’s office: “Where there’s
a will, there’s a way; Where there’s a way, there’s
a law; Where there’s a law, there’s a loophole;
Where there’s a loophole, there’s me, WALK IN.”

A site to visualize how an earthquake (with different levels of shaking) affects an unsecured and a quake-safe house. I found it bit scary.

Six tips for effective reading

This is what I follow while reading academic books. You can try out these tips ;)

Six Tips for effective reading:

Choose a comfortable clutter-free reading zone.
Pay attention to what you are reading. Handle a section at a stipulated time for better focus.
First quickly skim through the content you are going to read to get a rough idea of what you are reading. Don’t ignore the headings and subheadings..
Be specific about what you want to study. Ask yourself a simple question. Why are you reading? Then, start reading keeping in mind what you are looking for.
Mark the important terms or information on your textbook with a highlighter or a pencil for later reference, as you read.
Note down what you learned. Make a list of the important points of what you read (keep it crisp and short) or create a mind map using the important points.

The Old Man does it again

I have been indulging myself whole morning in the US Open Men Quarterfinal match between my all-time favorite Andre Agassi and fellow American James Blake (Agassi look-alike). Two sets down and looking weary, Agassi suddenly regain his touch and went on to win the match to advance in the semis. Quite a mood uplifter for me....

People see you as a Shy Rich Girl. Now, whether you
are rich or not is not the issue. The fact is
you are shy and full of innocence. I wouldn't
be suprised if there is some stuffed animals
hanging around in your room. Girlish innocence
is hard to find in this day and age so don't
loose it. You radiate sophistication and
prettinees. Enjoy the lace, frills, and pink my
friend!
