Sorting Networks..

There is nothing more difficult to take in hand,more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its sucess,than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things
- NICCOLO MACHIAVELLI,THE PRINCE

Last semester of my engineering degree has come ,juniors say its the time to get nostalgic but i say the time to be nostalgic is only when its over dead and buried and we are singing our victory dance on some roof top.We have a subject this semester that revived my interest in Computer Science .
i have taken parallel computing(sometimes i think its common sense computing) its been hardly a month and i have taken a class on parallel computing(only five minutes)
proving odd even transposition sorting.
Reading material on sorting trying to find networks intuitively Reading The Art of Computer Programming Vol-3 by Knuth its fascinating book containing lots of quotations AND LOTS OF MATHEMATICS..
Hope to read this book atleast once before this semester ends that's all.

Kingdom of Heaven

A kingdom of concious...
Remember that even when those who move u be kings or men of power ... your soul is in your keeping alone .. when u stand beofre god u cannot say that i did as i was told to or that virtue was inconvenient ...

Pain

what happens to us when we are in pain .. does any other emotion except the emotion to exsape exists
Only the drive to escape the pain. When it’s strong
enough, it strips us of everything that makes us who we are,
until we’re reduced to creatures less than animals, creatures with a single
desire and goal: escape.

Some thoughts

What is a king, after all, but a man imprisoned by his duties

You devote yourself to that which you believe to be true but cannot prove.
should i believe in spirit .. in religion in form ..but what is proof but a way of thinking ..
..there is care there is a tenderness in words .. understanding ..
understanding begets empathy and compassion,even for the meanest beggar in the meanest city

iS Wisdom is the most important tool for a
person to possess.”
Logic
the ability to reason analytically. Applied properly, it can overcome
any lack of wisdom, which one only gains through age and experience.”
virtue ...is it overated ..
Too many problems in this world are caused by men with noble dispositions and clouded minds.

A Cliff

Sometimes in life We’re throwing ourselves off a cliff without knowing how deep the water below is.
Ah, but what a glorious flight!

Belief

Beliefs .. are like strings of hope .. that are sometimes make us believe when there is no hope ..they help us .. they feed and cloth and take care of u untill u are ready to go into the world and find your drive..
When we feel that everyone thinks so low of u, cause of some actions u haven't done .. of actions u have done ..of actions misinterpreted ...
we worry about what people think .. and forget about the only ones who actually matter
who love u .. i say when all is lost don't lose your tranquility .. cause it is all we have ..If we can't bear to take the good with the bad .. then what justice we do to the faith people have on us.......
Are we hollow weak .. not to be able to take some blows .. does our emotions make us forget our sanity...
Am i not a warrior of old .. do i do justice to my ancestors ......

Sometimes in life .. we need hope we need believe to hold on a second more ..
sometimes we feel so alone .. want to feel alone .. ..sometimes i realise that i really can't help anyone else ..
sometimes i feel helpless sometimes strong ..
a rock sometimes othertimes sand ..
Rocks never cry they say .. but when the waves fall on the rocks ..they do erode
what time they break is the choice
we make and only we can make

Sometimes

sometimes i feel..
i feel as if a book is talking to me
In life
You must
retain your freedom, for in it lies your true power: the ability to make choices independent
With People
You must be kind and wise with them all, for they put their trust in you. Don’t
speak flippantly or without thought, because your words will have impact far beyond whatyou intend.

The burden of leadership is being responsible for the well-being of the people in your charge.
