LOTR
   Finally I am through watching the triology. The adventure of the hobbit with minimal instincts towards any adventure has finally come to an end. The third part of the triology is the best in terms of visual effects and action. One is engulfed in the make shift world of hobbits, elves and wizards for full 3 hours. the scenery is serene and cinimatography full of twists and turns. Although one might say that the end was a bit dragged but on a deeper look one feels that it was not so; keeping in mind the total length of the whole triology. After all it was the end of a long tale that spread over 10 long hours.
   If you ask me how I compare the three parts I would sway my vote in favour of the second part, The Two Towers. The sole reason being that it was balanced in between emotional drama and swinging swords and flying, wizzing arrows. But again this can be countered in that the first part was bound to be slow and emotional because in that the writer was setting the precedent for the tale. and the third part was bound to be more action stricken because all that was spread by Tolkien had to be moped up efficiently in giving the story a happy ever after finish. Only thought that strikes me is that in the days when Tolkien was writing this epic fairy tale he must have been affected by the events around him. The second world war was in full swing and maybe he found retreat in his own world in writing this novel. Either its just me or what but you can very well see the political drama very real and attached to the present day world in the tale.
   Enough said about the tale of the ring now to the real world of matter and mass. Where the sheer momentum of events is sufficient enough to cause havoc in the sky that drenches our eyes with its perplexing concavity. Some news successfully carried their momentum today to my sleep weary ear drums. Scientists it seems have finally been able to spot the ever illusionary tenth planet of the solar system. And this time around they are pretty sure that it is part of our pack. Astronomers have named it after the goddess of ocean.

Learning Arduino 1

This holiday season I decided to gift myself some basic electrical components in the form of a Arduino UNO set from Elegoo. I have always had a desire to tinker with electronics and in gifting myself this basic set I am now starting on a journey to quench my inner electrical workman's thirst. I hope to develop this hobby as I move forward and will, from time to time, post about it here on the blog. As the journey moves forward I am sure to run into trouble and issues. But as they say you can not master anything without first being a fool at it, so I have decided to remain a fool at it until I am a little good at it. To start with, I do possess some elementary knowledge in electronics and electronic circuits. I intend to further my knowledge using the world wide web and following some very useful video channels on youtube. I will first start with some very basic projects to familiarize myself with Arduino and basic electronic circuits and techniques such as soldering. Then graduall...

iPad 2

The new iPad is worth it's money. Sleek slender design is a plus and so is the light weight. I am not really impressed by the camera as the pictures with both front and back cameras are pixelated and very amateurish looking. It's handy in the sense that I can carry it around while making rounds and access patient information on the go. This makes life easier and for someone like myself this means much less paper waste. I think one added advantage is that I will waste less time on writing down all the information on a piece of paper every morning and will be able to pull it up anytime I want to do so or need to do so. This gives me more time to think and reflect on the patient and spend more time with the patient rather than time in front of a bulky computer. There are new apps I am discovering every day. However there is still dearth of good medical apps that have been modeled for iPad. This makes the productivity of the iPad a little less but still the benefits of having a w...

Elections '08

Parliamentary Elections are just 12 hours away in Pakistan. Unlike all previous elections i have reached the voting age for these elections. Now i can use my right to vote to select a candidate that i think represents future and progress. I can be part of the democratic process. I can be a miniature vector of change or towards change. But i will not use my right to vote. that means i will not participate in the process of electing representatives who will rule my country and my fate for the next five years, even more if they get their way like this present dictator, Musharraf. In doing so i will loose my right to object to any actions of the 'elected', more so selected representatives of this country. but this can be debated and in most probability i will not pass from any opportunity to pointing out wrong doings and mischief in the character of those who lead my unfortunate country in the future. I will not vote because i know the outcomes of the elections have been pr...
