Korean Dramas Marathon Part 2

May 20, 2006

Finally I finished watching the 4 seasonal korean dramas, Autumn in My Heart, Winter Sonata, Summer Scent and Spring Waltz.

Korean Dramas Marathon

Three more and I will be done. It is really ironical that my life as a graduate student is way, far far busier than as an undergraduate. Check the link below, pretty cute!

We lost in Thomas Cup Semis :-(

But great job for the doubles, didn't expect any win, well you guys made it…If only Malaysia and China are in the final, then I could be a sole ranger [...]

The equations of knowledge and power

May 4, 2006

Knowledge is Power
Time is Money
and as every engineer knows, Power is Work over Time.So, substituting algebraic equations for these time worn bits of wisdom, we get:

K = P (1)
T = M (2)
P = W/T (3)

Now, do a few simple [...]
